Egg Salad

I did not dye eggs this year. Nanette's chickens lay brown eggs, which are delicious but do not dye well. But I did hardboil some eggs on Sunday in honor of the season.

Tonight I can't think of anything I want to cook for supper, so I'm eating egg salad.

My massage appointment, which had been postponed from last Wednesday has been pushed out again.

And I found out from Beth (our sales manager) that the final day of this contract is July 25. So I am 1/3 of the way through this contract. Sigh.

I told her that after this contract ends I won't work for Boston again for at least five years. This stint of consulting is being much more annoying than last fall: the manager I'm mostly working for CANNOT hold to a decision for more than a couple of days. So I end up reworking the same tasks over and over again. I don't trust the instructions I'm given not to change (Getting acknowledgements in writing of what the current plan is makes no difference. The requirements will be different tomorrow, or cetrainly by next week) and I worry about doing any tasks that can't be undone.

Now I'm going back to reading the latest book by Steven Erikson. (I'm at about the halfway point now.) A thousand pages or so of gritty fantasy with a high body-count pretty well suits my mood. Grr.
