In which Rolanni has a short day but a merry one
Monday, January 15th, 2007 07:19 pmArrived at work amidst gentle snow; wandered around a bit before I located the building that HR lives in, filled out papers, walked in the snow over to new digs and made myself known to those folks who happened to be about. Spent the morning on a tour of the increasingly snow-covered campus, meeting many pleasant people whose names I will no doubt need to be reminded of again, and finding out that various necessary things couldn't happen because I Wasn't in the System Yet. At noon, conditions were bad enough to justify going home, so I called ![[livejournal.com profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/external/lj-userinfo.gif)
kinzel, who heroically drove across the river to retrieve me.
At home, we shared lunch, after whichkinzel unfortunately had to deal with a Computer Event. I retired to my office to fill out even more job-related forms (remember how computers were going to make us free of the tyranny of paper?), then did some writing, finished reading Carnival by matociquala, and scrubbled cat bellies.
It is not, as I write this, snowing. The weatherbeans are still promising ice on the overnight, which I could do without, thanks. Tomorrow is forecast to be partly cloudy and colder than it has been, but not out of line for the season.
And so it goes.
There's a life-size marble lion on the ground floor of the building I work in. At first, I thought he was sleeping. Then I saw the spear broken off in his side...
