Sometimes the hardest thing to write is a title

Greg, Connor and I have started making an early evening trip to the pool hall once a week. Its not super expensive. The music is the right volume and is geared to the older (or well trainex) ear. The hostess is lovely. Con is picking it up fairly well and sees the game and the space as a possible place to hang out with some of his peers.


We may be taking in a temporary roommate... a coworker of mine who needs to get out of where she is. She has run up against struggles with cost of rentals and also owning a large-ish sized dog. Her intent ,as I know it, is to be picked up as a full time employee (she came in as a temp) and then go full time remote and move back to Arizona. She has been told her contract will be picked up. Which, of course, it would be seeing as she has the highest commisions of all the techs and shes a very decent troubleshooter. I might have judged her a little harshly at first. I might have even noted her here as a bit of an irritant- especially in her selling style. I also wasnt sure she was the one who clashed so un- agreeably with one of the trainers. I have since come to recognize that she is not that person. And I have not detected any major red flags with the knowledge Ive come to have of her. Shes coming over soon to see if the fit works.


Whats in it for us? The extra income will help with the expense of some major bathroom renovations where we combine the two little upstairs bathrooms into one larger one. The master shower is leaking into the kitchen below and the other bathtub is to small for connors man sized frame. So we can fix both those issues with one fell swoop.


When I last spoke of the charactors decorating the office water cooler ... all I could interprete from them was cofussion over thier situation. However I ended up placing little signs next to each one that when read together said the alien phrase "Eep Opp Oak Ahah" Aiming at bringing love to the scene, and to whomever(s) it is that supply the water cooler scenes, and lastly to anyone who happens to see it.


It seems that by Monday afternoon, someone had already added a story line.
