Another unexpected day off, and a visit from Mark

So, I get into work this afternoon to discover that I didn't have to come in to work today: I'm supposed to go in *tomorrow*/Wednesday. The person who gave me my hours when I called in yesterday must have read the sheet wrong. Unfortunately, that messes me up for going into Lowell tomorrow: I won't be able to hang around as long as I wanted to, and I'll have to postpone some projects, including burning Pazu's "A.I." fan novelization onto audio CD so I can listen to it on my CD player. Hopefully the computer lab will still be open on Thursday: I've got that day off, so perhaps I can nip in then. We'll see...

And as we'd planned over the weekend, Mark came over, bringing along his usual mysterious movie to share... this time it was "Collateral", which I had been wanting to see (Regardless of the fact that I am *hating* Tom Cruise for his utterly rude, unethical and downright bigoted comments about people with depression who need meds to handle it.)
