telecommute

It is 4:46p.m. and I am in my pajamas, which I never took off. I have a side ponytail (it started out on top of my head, at some point), mascara under my eyes from last night, and I haven't brushed my teeth today. 2009!!!!!!! WOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!!!!!

I did manage to get a little work done today, and I also tried out our new wii fit (there's a way to motivate yourself, have a little icon of you suddenly double in size and look like it's got a problem with donuts).

Yes, today was a "work from home" day, which actually is a great luxury. I can attire myself as I please (see above...) and no one can bother me, walking up to my desk and saying things like,

"so... um. Do you know if we use recycled paper in the office?"
Do you know if we can recycle plastic bags in our desk recycling bins?
Do you know what kind of light bulbs we use?
Have you thought about retrofitting the lightbulbs with motion sensors?
Have you considered battery recycling for the office?
Do you know what kind of glue is on our envelopes? Was it tested on animals?
Do you buy carbon offsets? Can I buy them from you? We should sell them, as a company!


Yes, I get much more work done when I don't have to answer questions like this. Did I mention, I was recently introduced to a new hire as "this is ashley, she's IN CHARGE OF THE ENVIRONMENT".

That's right. Me and Al Gore. So I really enjoy the working-from-home, not-gonna-brush-my-teeth days.

I suppose I will shower before the husband comes home, so he still wants to live with me.
2009. Rockin and Rollin and workin from home.
