*sigh*

Well, the Claims assignment fell through. Or got "delayed" or whatever. Not terribly surprised. So I won't be going back to work on Friday... maybe next week? Maybe in the weeks following? ...It's getting to be that awkward time period when it's not really worth it to look for jobs, seeing as I'm going to be leaving Portland at the end of April. (I actually went and made my flights, finally.)

I sent Ivan an email and told him to pass the word on to the others. ...I have to say, it was totally gratifying how upset all my coworkers were when I got laid off. Outraged, even.

...Dar and I are going to go get Voodoo Donuts and watch some Jurassic Park: The Lost World. I'm thinking we should also drink some Irish Stout. Happy St. Patrick's Day, guys.

Well on the plus side, more time to hang out and enjoy your last month and a half of PDX? :) Man I am so jealous of your Voodoo Donuts right now you have no idea. Do want.

Sorry to hear about you getting laid off, but with only a month and a half left in town you might as well file for unemployment and enjoy your time.

It also makes the idea of hopping on a train and coming down for a visit for a few days much more attractive. I would like to try and get down to Portland sometime before you take off.

happy leprechaun Day

Boo, stupid job! I agree with everyone else... don't let their obnoxious habit of stringing you along bother you too much and just enjoy your last few weeks in Portland. (I'm a little biased, though. (-;)

You should drink stuff! Drink for me! I'm stuck in a hospital without booze!

Yeah, no. I'm with everyone else -- enjoy what you have left in Portland. Speaking of, I do have next Saturday off if you still wanted to hang out. (I-I think that's the Saturday you had meant, I cannot remember.)

Hugs, girl! I'm sorry about work.
