Wait!! WHAT!!?

I had a half day yesterday (God I feel like I'm in school all over again when I say things like that, in fact I had a dream that I was a teacher last night, probably because we watched "Here Comes The Boom") which started my morning off at the casino to get my freebie, and to my surprise it was $20. So I decided to play it which lasted a whole 20 minutes. Something was nagging me that I should probably go to work earlier than planned, so I got there at 10:12 and was greeted by a very tired partner in crime. She hadn't slept in 24 hours due to personal stuff at home. She said she hadn't finished payroll yet and was just finishing up invoices before the deadline for month end. We told her she needed to go home and sleep, that I could finish payroll. I got the okay from my department and we sent her off to sleep. It hasn't been that long since I switched departments and it wasn't that hard to pick it up again. I only had 4 hours to finish before I got sent home due to the above mentioned half day. So I worked through the error messages many of which were just change of addresses, but there was a rehire who had been deleted from the main system that kept getting kicked out no matter what I tried. So we proceeded without paying her for now. After balancing the hours, payroll was completed within 2 hours, really only 2 hours? I was a happy boy at this time, remembering what to do. Also, I returned some calls from the weekend and was able to get my email cleared out too. For a short day, it seems that I completed all my tasks for the day. With this week being no orientation, I'm taking the time to organize and do another audit of one of our favorite binders that is in my office. Plus, setting up the upcoming new hires and taking over the calling from our assistant. On the biggest loser front, I lost another 6 lbs, so I'm pretty sure I won the competition but since the main organizer wasn't there I didn't receive the prize yet. I still can't believe that I lost 30 lbs in 8 weeks. I'm super excited for the next round which will get me out of the 200's by my birthday in July. It was a great day, and glad that I could help a friend in need. Now only if her children would just fucking cooperate and do what they are supposed to we would live in a perfect world, but it's children stubborn!!
