vacation, day 3: change of plans

so, today, i was going to wake up early (read: 10 a.m.) in order to make it to the noon showing of rachel getting married at the arbor. then i was going to buy my new comics and go home and read them. then i was going to texas chili parlor with leanne and co.

only i woke up today to an e-mail from leanne saying justin was laid off at work. so i start putting my feelers out, and finally give in and check my work e-mail. yup, justin was laid off. i get on IM and talk to april. several other people were also laid off. some people i really, really liked working with.

fucking bullshit, especially when a really great account director was laid off, and this really stupid/sometimes competent account exec is still there only because her mom is the company's president.

sigh.

so now i'm helping people job search and drinking coffee. then i will go get comics and possibly lunch. then i'll either go to chili parlor for a little bit or go straight to drinking with justin, as i suggested to him that i need to get him drunk tonight (in a platonic way).

so that's the plan as of 12:46 p.m. let's see if it sticks.
