Alone at last!

BDI informed me at the end of the day yesterday that she won't be here today. Not that I didn't rejoice, but leading up to that announcement, she spent the entire afternoon engaged in a rather unusual project. I couldn't understand who would give her something like this to do. She had a big bristol board on her desk, and she kept enlarging some sort of map on the photocopier, cutting it out, and pasting it onto the bristol board. (All of this was done using school resouces, in case you're wondering - and not that I don't, but I don't do it using 2 hours of paid work, in plain sight for all to see.) Anyway, it took me a while to figure out what was afoot. Turns out she's taking the day off to go to various day care centres in the hopes of finding a location to place her demon spawn. I then realized, from having seen her computer screen in previous days, that she's been working on this little project for the last three days. I should let you know that BDI's husband is on "paternity leave", and is a "graphic designer", so I'm quite uncertain of why *she* had to spend so much time on this little project. I mean, it's not like this city isn't split into grids and no place is particularly difficult to find. No, BDI must travel in her car with a big ass bristol board to point the way. Idiot.

The truth of the matter, though, is that this doesn't even anger me. It entertains me. The depths of her ineptitude astound me anew with every passing day.

Oh, and also, I'm revamping the textbook she put together the summer before last. It. Is. So. Horrible. I've never seen such a poor job of word processing and design. The sucker will be unrecognizable when I'm done with it. Whee! I get to work on another book!
