One more day in the tax mines

wombat_sochoFor a while I was thinking about leaving work tomorrow night, driving for four hours to Elko, sleeping there for a few hours, and then driving the rest of the way to Provo, which would get me there around noon on Thursday. Lately I've been reconsidering that and just looking at getting a good night's sleep on my last day in Reno before driving straight through to Provo, getting there late in the afternoon, because frankly the idea of driving east on I-80 in the dark for four hours after a full day in the tax mines does not appeal in the least. Also, the room is paid for through Thursday, and it's not like I get any consideration for checking out a day early. I did get at least one of my reimbursement requests approved and promptly threw money at the Savor card.
Still no word from Anne or Elizabeth on whether they want me back in the office on Monday or not, much less the following week after Confinement. On the one hand, I'm definitely doing a lot of returns while I'm here and am somewhat skeptical that I'll get as many dropoffs/fulfillment returns once I'm back in Tonopah, but then again there are a lot of TPAs in the office to kickstart returns, so I guess we'll see.
Maverik has come out with some handmeals they call "bundles", which are basically sandwiches contained in a bun. Full-sized sandwiches, too: the breakfast egg & sausage bundle has a whole egg & regular-sized sausage patty, while the BBQ pork bundle's pork component is about the size of my palm. Both super yummy.
Weight came down to 395 a few days ago, then I was stupid and ate a bunch of egg rolls from Jack's for lunch yesterday with my chicken sandwich, and now I'm back to 399. I avoided Bad Things today and am hoping for better weight tomorrow; dinner was the last box of chicken & broccoli alfredo and four cheddarwursts au naturel. BG have been mostly on the low end of nominal and BP have been normal.
Weather's been pretty moderate for the last couple of weeks but today it turned cold so I got the busman's jacket out of the car at lunch and brought it into the office to warm up. I was sorry I didn't have my gloves. Tomorrow it's supposed to reach 39 and Thursday 42.
