Creative ways to pay bills

YW; 50 medicine ball crunch throws, 50 medicine ball side throws both left and right.  Then 2 farmer's walk stairs, 10 clean and press and pushups with kettlebells, SDHP, and pullups - 5 rounds.  Then run 2.4km in under 11 minutes.

Yesterday I was robbed at trivia.  Robbed I say.  The question was name six one word countries that end in the letter "e" and I came up with France, Suriname, Mozambique, Singapore, Chile, and Zimbabwe.  All of those are correct, but they refused to accept Zimbabwe because it wasn't on their list.  Zimbabwe is a one word country and it ends in the letter e, therefore it is correct.  We also lost out because there were bonus points for everyone on your team that wore green (for St Patrick's Day) and we only had three players whereas the winning team had eight.  I am not pleased with the Fame Trivia authorities.  Perhaps my trivia team should find a better trivia night.

I was down in party HQ today and talked about the letter I got yesterday.



It quickly went from being a talk about my loathing of that campaign and became a talk about my loathing of work (or certain aspects of work) and the sense that I am expected to relocate for weeks at a time to places where I have no friends and no support.  Party HQ had no idea I felt this way and neither does our CoS or W.  I suspect I may have to do so one way or another.  Unfortunately, I still feel somewhat paralysed and I'm not sure how to feel not paralysed.

We have a new media advisor at the moment and for no good reason I don't feel comfortable around him.  He has done nothing wrong whatsoever but he came into my office today and I quickly made an excuse to leave the room.  Just at quitting time he asked if I was ok.  I said no and that I didn't want to talk about it.  He asked if it was him.  He's probably a perfectly nice guy and I will quite likely end up being fine with him, but at the moment I just feel awkward about the change in the office upsetting my expectations and habits.

If I wasn't going away again soon I would probably go back to the therapy place and see if I could get an appointment with another person than the last guy.

And finally, I suspect I may end up having to pay the aforementioned "bill."  Part of me wants to send them a bill of my own and part of me wants to send them the amount of the bill in 4,290 5 cent pieces.  Or I could try this.
