I will be heading out to Switzerland on Monday. And yes I checked with my doctor about flying so soon after the surgery and he said it was fine. I will be gone Monday through Friday and we will see how Brendan does with pupster. My bet is that he will be cranky with getting up with Eli each morning.
Yesterday I was walking to the cafeteria (in the building across the street from mine) with a colleague. She was talking about how she noticed five (5) dead pigeons along the side of the building where she usually parks. She found this strange. I commented that it was odd. And then we stepped outside and A PIGEON FELL OUT OF THE SKY. It dropped dead. Right next to us. While we were talking about the plethora of dead pigeons. Dead. Pigeon. Sky. Crazy.
And if you watch Flash Forward on ABC you can see why I was a little freaked out. Bad things happen when birds die en masse.
Work is insanely busy for me and will be until January at least. Which I guess is good in this economy. I better get a trip to Switzerland out of all this.
Since I am up and about and I am bored, I have begun to have discussions about returning to work. So come Monday, I will be back in the office. Sort of. I will be working a few hours in the office and then some from home. I will work this modified schedule for a few weeks while I get used to the daily grind.
Work is not pushing the issue and my boss has actually selected to co-workers who are to police the number of hours I am in the office each day and make sure I am not pushing myself while she is out.
I should have picked a Monday that was not following an 8:00 pm Giants game.
A cool article was just written in the Boston Herald about my boss. You can read it here: ABS article
