Valentine's Surprise

Cheese!

Jeff was supposed to work late last night for testing. But they called off the testing so he decided to run and get Alaina and I Valentine's presents so he didn't have to battle the snow today or tomorrow.

I got a dozen roses . . .which the cat keeps trying to eat.

And the one thing I asked for:

A cookie from Eileen's!

There is absolutely no better cookie in the world than an Eileen's chocolate chip cookie with frosting.

Since school was already called off today, Jeff is now spending the day at hoem with Alaina, no doubt shoving her full of bits of her cookie and watching lots of good movies.

I'm just happy that the CIO called to say she would be working from home. Snow days are my favorite days to be at work because I get A LOT done when no one is in the office.

Yay snow!

Stress - CTU style

I'm stuck at my desk . . .

I am literally terrified to leave it.

the secretary for the CIO is out for the next four days and I'm in charge of her schedule.

This sucks worse than death and taxes combined.

Don't get me wrong, its not the people involved, its the pressure.

When she pokes her head out of her office, I have to be here. If I'm not, Senior level managers don't get papers they need, deadlines aren't met, and critical information isn't passed along. I was so antsy I took 7 minutes for lunch to drive thru and grab food to eat at my desk.

Yikes!

They DO NOT pay me enough for this. I hope Chloe was paid more at CTU than Jack Bauer and Bill Buchanen

COMBINED!
