Feeling Good

Feeling a lot better. Got one of my two new incredibly soft, comfy shirts on; listening to 'Wannabe' by the Spice Girls, gonna play D&D tonight, got tomorrow off and might see David and Barbara, finally got my blue shirt raise (a quarter, which while minimal, is better than nothing). Just goodness all around.

Played Star Wars with Tim last night. I built a starship deck, 'cause that's my favorite aspect of Star Wars. I think I'm going to refine it to just Red Squadron. It's a fun game, if awkward at times. The later expansions made things all crazy, though.

Let's see, what else? Had a manager trainee meeting with Dave. It was just me and Mark. He asked about our red books; I said I'd read up to the point where it talks about all of that stuff having to be done on the clock. It's quite explicit. Dave kind of mumbled something about how you have to show initiative and what-not to get ahead, and that's pretty much anywhere. It almost makes me want to call his supervisor or something and ask about it. Anyway... he was talking about communication. He told me that he'd never seen me ask anyone to do anything. Which is bullshit. I ask people to do things all the time. I don't do it very much when he's there, because he might rescind it, or think I'm overstepping myself, or something.

Erica and I talked some more. We seem to be getting a little closer, which is good. She's awesome. I'm going to get her a flower or card or something and leave it for her tomorrow morning.
