Two Weeks in the Valley

Believe it or not, YUD is working for two weeks straight outside of the confines of her own home. This is unprecedented! Kinda like the old days, except with bigger muscles and less money to show for it.
Today I’m in dreary east midtown, where the rains beat the windows spanning the 15th floor freelancer pen quite mercilessly. Of all the days to stay home, this would be a good one, but here I am. Working girl’s work never done, etc. etc. And, as my cab driver explained to me today (hey, I was running late), when the economy is bad, you have to work when you can. And also, when it rains it can really ruin your hairdo.
Indeed! And it’s true. I hate to turn down work, even if I actually also hate having to do it. In an epic battle of the hates, the hate that brings me money wins over the hate that allows me watch all the TV I can stand, chow on some chicken nuggets, and then watch some more. What I hate most of all, however, is bad hair.
In other news of an oh-so-productive nature, I managed to go to the gym this morning, engage in a work call (for another freelance thingamajig), and get to the office 6 minutes early (thank you, cab driver). And now I’m wondering, is it lunchtime yet? I think it just might be.
