Good Morning all:
BTW before I get started on what is likely to be a whiney
post the time blog says this high quality prose is posted in three hours off.
Blog spot lists thing in Pacific time and not eastern time. I discovered this
when editing all the blogs I wrote when I was sick and had to go back and
change the time when editing for the book.
And that brings up another point you’d think a blog would be
easy to edit since you already wrote it once and presumably edited it once.
Well you guys are surely a patient audience because the last blog – and this
one probably isn’t much better – was riddled with errors. So editing has taken
a while.
Anyway, yesterday was not a good day for me. I had what
medically is defined as a squidgy stomach. Gurgle, gurgle, gurgle. A bad case
of diarrhea and a little nausea. I immediately had flashback of 18 months ago
when I first got sick. It’s probably the greasy Wawa croissant I had for
breakfast, but it was unrelenting.
You wanna know how distracted I was? We had a catered lunch
because we had guests from Maryland who wanted to know how we got people
trained as dealers – not drug dealers (that’s short term on the job training),
but card dealers because Md. Recently passed table games legislation.
It was a beautiful lunch. I had half a roast beef sandwich
and wanted to yack!! One of the people from Maryland said something I could
make fun of with a snappy rejoinder and I let it pass. The Chairman even said,
“Bill, nothing? Have you turned over a new leaf?”
So when that was over I gave the Maryland folks a tour of
the Fox Valley One Stop, bragged quite a bit (especially about the Career
Compass) , and went back upstairs praying the whole time that they would leave.
When they finally left, I went in my office and filled out a
sick slip and went home.
I feel a little bit better today, still a bit antsy about it
all. Luckily I have an oncology appointment next week and we’ll see. If I start
vomiting though, I’ll freak the F@#k out.
I need to check on my leave and sick leave balances, but to
do that takes an IT degree. I need to find someone to do it for me. Oh well.
I guess that’s it for today,
