I got distracted by assorted things and am trying to catch up on my Not the IRS paid training courses. *sigh*
95% of this is the same damn stuff we learn/review every year, and it's extremely tiring. On the bright side, I do get paid for the slog?
I also have a handy-dandy sheet that tells me how long each course segment is supposed to take, so sometimes I do the courses and then just clock in and clock out to make sure my paid time equals the estimated time rather than tracking my actual progress. Shhh, don't tell!

In other news, this week we're doing winter inspections of downtown apartments, which is annoying in a slightly different way from doing the same inspections in Collegetown. On the one hand, fewer apartments! On the other hand, a lot of really tall ceilings, which makes pressing the smoke alarm test buttons an exercise in massive frustration. *wry*
-----
I need to leave a proper intelligent comment on my wonderful Yuletide gift, which I will hopefully have the spoons to manage tomorrow. At that point, I will rec it to you in coherent words! (For now, though, if you like Meredith Ann Pierce's Darkangel Trilogy? Do go read The Heart With Which He Loved You -- you will thank yourself for following the link!)
