been gone; be'in back now I've been "oop north" working. I was able to check email occasionally, and managed to stop by Metafilter a couple of times, but no MetaChat since November. Has anything changed? :D→[More:]

It was odd, but I really did think about y'all. *blush* NOT like that!!

It's lovely to be home; I worked so much, I can be home until next spring if I'm careful with expenses. YAY

This is just a warning.

me, me!!

Welcome back, reflecked! Did anyone tell you about the new dress code (we now have Casual Friday, when you don't have to wear your bunny business ears).

posted by taz 06 May | 07:07

gasp! I've always worked MetaChat pantsless. Now I can take off the ears, too? wow.. I feel naked. *shiver*

Thank you Taz. :)

pantsless? Then you'll want to be careful where you sit on Peter Cottontail Tuesdays.

We have a wiki now. Also, I'm here.

A wiki. :D I just looked, and tried to add myself to the "female" category.... but .. nooooo! It insists on offering to let me edit the males. Hmmm.. that's tempting. Thanks mikewithnumbers.

I promise to be careful where I sit EVERY day at MetaChat. You know the old saying: " just because it LOOKS fluffy and harmless.... "

I edited the wiki, reflecked, and now you're a real girl. Or woman. Lady. Something.

So SHE's the one whose corner of the couch I have been sitting in all this time.

Does this mean that I have to get up now?

Welcome back reflecked! It HAS been a long time. What were you doing up north?

posted by LeeJay 06 May | 11:59

I've arrived since sometime around when you left. And also gone away for a bit just recently. But I'm back now too! Enjoy your glorious return!

Where was up north?

How FAR up north?

posted by wendell 06 May | 17:30

Far enough north for me. :D Small hospital there, and an overburdened native health service. I mostly was the ER nurse, but filled in with the ED and the Home Health network.

Great snowboarding, and I left JUST as the mosquitoes were getting really bad.

correction: typo

I mostly was the Operating Room nurse, and filled in with the Emergency Dept. That means "mostly minor or we ship 'em out".

heh.. last I heard, they haven't replaced me, but my contract was over, extended, and then realllllly over.

That's awesome reflecked. I was picturing you in an Alaskan cannery or something. Which would have been equally cool, actually.
