money doesn't solve all problems, but it can sometimes keep new ones from spontaneously appearing

So work has been wild because -- thanks to Cornell starting their fall semester roughly a week later than their usual schedule (no really, thanks a million, Cornell) -- we are trying to compress what's usually a three-and-a-half-week turnaround between "get the majority of new tenants into their apartments" and "open for next year's rentals" into only a hair over two weeks, and this is, as one can imagine, somewhat stressful.

Also I got my period tonight, so that's just ducky.

On the bright side, Aunt Boss finally got around to calculating summer commissions, plus I got my end-of-summer bonus, so my latest paycheck was like three times the size of the usual amount, which means at least I'm stressed and financially solvent rather than stressed and having cash-flow issues.

...

...

Okay, bed now.

Oh /ugh/. That sounds appalling. *thinks going-smoothly thoughts in your direction*

Today was much better, especially since I fought an outdated apartment blueprint into something very nearly approximating its remodeled appearance so now we have accurate floorplans to show to potential tenants. (This would be a lot easier with Photoshop, one presumes, but I can kludge Paint into more or less doing my bidding.)

I mean, I realized about fifteen minutes before closing that I'd forgotten to finish adding photos to our Craigslist ads (though I did weed out all the duplicates and fix the wording so they're up to date), or to activate our ads on another rental listing site, but you know, details. *sigh*

Oh boy.
Slightly amused over long-distance period concurrence, if that helps. I was feeling pretty sick for a couple hours yesterday, which made my last minute NFE finishing... even more last-minute and not fun.

When I noticed the blood, it was like "Oh! That's why I've felt like I was coming down with a cold for the past two days, but no cold has appeared." :(

You would think I would know my own symptoms by this point in my life, but nope. Even when I suspect it's due, the "am I getting the sniffles?" bit catches me by surprise nearly every time.
