This Should Get...Interesting.

Today's plans:

[o] finish breakfast
[o] do the dishes from last night's baking & supper making
[o] maybe watch this video again because it is just so. good.
[o] read more of Thud! so I can move on to the next reading project
[o] if I do finish (unlikely for this morning), the next reading project is Found, which is bound up with a red pen in the coil waiting to be edited
[o] go to work at 1 and wait for the coming train wreck

See, today is the first time that Shift A will have an overlap with Shift B. Shift A has returned after being transferred out, and Shift B arrived after that happened, so they have never worked together before, or even met. Their styles, personalities, senses of humor, and views of work responsibilities are complete opposites, and I already know that the phrase "getting along like a house on fire*" may just be literal in this case. I am both terrified and excited in a slightly morbid way, and at least one co-worker who knows both of them (and, incidentally, had to work as a shift with A before and is also completely different from them) has asked me to text them with updates.

After I get out of work, I get to do laundry and hang out with the roommates and the boyfriend and three other friends, one of which I haven't actually met in person! Should be fun :)

*Why is this phrase supposed to mean "get along well?" I mean, yes, a fire gets along through a house pretty well, but nobody is ever happy about it, are they?
