tarotgalBad: Last week at work SUCKED. Like, worked until 1am one night and until 11:30 another night and made myself sick working so hard kind of sucked.
Good: We launched 4 big things on Friday ON TIME no thanks to other people at my work
Bad: I left work 40 minutes after I wanted to on Friday. 1 hour later, my boss took everyone to see Guardians of the Galaxy in 3D on opening day. Without me. This is the THIRD movie (out of 4) he's scheduled on a day when I was taking leave for a prior engagement. WHAT? I'm so frustrated. I bust my butt covering for my coworkers and then as soon as I leave he treats said coworkers to a movie? See icon.
Good: Brickfair (LEGO Convention) was awesome. Really. I had a really great time, made lots of new friends (which, to me, is amazing because I'm shy introvert girl at cons), and managed to duck out to go home because I was exhausted just before the v--ing started during Drunk Speed Build.
Bad: I skipped several Brickfair events in order to attend a meeting for work, only to find out said meeting was rescheduled and no one communicated the change. It was rescheduled to coincide with another event I wanted to attend. DAMN IT! So I said fuck it and left anyway.
Good: I made it to the con just in time to play and lose spectacularly at the Hogwarts LEGO game. heehee
Also good: Someone recognized my LEGO castle for the one in Highlander! Also, a few people had visited the castle and one had a photo of it on his phone because his professor just got married there. That's pretty awesome.
Awesome: Watching the LEGO movie with a bunch of LEGO fans. Yes, we all sang along. LOL
Probably good: I saw a new doctor yesterday and he recommended surgery on my hip as well. I've got surgery scheduled for September 12. Should be 3-5 days of not using my leg at all and then 4-6 weeks of normal recovery.I'm really excited about the prospect of my leg not being in pain. It's been hurting for the past 20 years or so, so if this surgery fixes things, that's going to completely change my life.
Bad: I definitely won't be running a 5K this October as I'd planned.
Good: I've fallen into Xanthe's "Two Wolves" again. It's pretty much the only thing that made me smile at times last week.
