Ass. Monitor

Perhaps today's title caught you off-guard? Yes, it did me, too. Well, not in my post. When I received the paperwork for my role on the Emergency Evacuation Team in our building, they had abbreviated my Assembly Monitor job as Ass. Monitor. I suggested to the girl in charge that, if she wants to abbreviate it, use Asmbly or something. She is supposed to send out final details today, so we'll see.

The meeting yesterday prompted today's CoV. My assignment most closely resembles the FIRE role in the comic.

The girls are spending the night, and so is Alison. So. they will either end up on the couches in the den or the less-than-comfortable futon in the guest bedroom. Sorry, girls. Otherwise, no plans.

We are currently planning to skip opening weekend for The Hunger Games movie. We do want to see it, and sooner rather than later, and a local theater was planning to have all 16 of its theaters showing that one movie. Still, instead of hearing that as confirmation that we would get in to a showing, we hear that as saying, "We will be crazy busy this weekend." And hopefully, Alison will bring me book two tonight. So, I will still have my Hunger Games cravings assuaged.

Wow. I just got a note from a friend that she won $766 on $.02 slots at a nearby casino. Still, you have to know that she probably lost much more than that in earlier trips.

OK, I have an 11am meeting with my boss, I have to publish the team weekly by 2pm, and we have that practice fire drill at 2pm. No time to waste. Not that visiting with you is time wasted. I am just saying that our time has ended for now. I will be back next week. Don't fret (do people even fret anymore, and does everyone jump straight into worry?).
