If anything, at least this blog has given me a way to occupy my time at work. This is proving to be ever more important as the days count down until my last day here. Just today I passed on 2 of the biggest tasks of my job to a couple of successors. Which leaves me with basically nothing but empty time on my hands. I started cleaning out my desks today, though. Which is a huge step towards high-tailing it out of here.
It's sad that I am ending things here with one of my employees on such a bad note. Well, maybe it's not sad, because it was really only a matter of time before her unendingly difficult personality pushed me over the edge. (Yet another reason why I am not suited for management.) We have hardly spoke a sentence to each other this week. It's getting kind of tense. Luckily she spends most of her time on a different floor of the building... but I'm beginning to think that she is spending more time down there than usual.
Well, I can't say I'm too upset about it. She did, in so many words, call me an under-qualified racist last week. That was an awkward conversation, let me tell you. It was funny that she was sitting there yelling at me and accusing me of treating her unfairly when I know that she never would raise her voice or make such accusations in the first place with someone older than me. So, naturally, it's been hard to go back to normal ever since then. I can't not take it personally. So maybe I am under-qualified.
Um, in other news, I saw 'The Dark Knight' last night. As expected, it was phenomenal. Batman movies make me feel like a super losery 12 year old boy, but I'm totally fine with that. The first time that badass bat cycle flew out of the front of the bat mobile after it was all wrecked, I almost peed a little and I'm pretty sure I squealed out loud.
I really think they need to bring a female villain in the to mix for the next installment. I'm talking a seriously psychotic, creepy female villain. Catwoman was obviously awesome, but she was more the sexy villain, what with her full body bondage suit, whip, and Michelle Pfeiffer-ness. The Batman movies of the '90s generally sucked - read: Poison Ivy. Who wants a villain whose main concern is environmental affairs? No. Not cool. I don't know much about the comics, but there has GOT to be a badass lady villain in there somewhere. But probably not - I can't imagine there has ever been much room for powerful lady villains (who DON'T end up falling in love with Batman) in the comics.
Sigh. I could do some serious damage as a crazy Batman villain. I'm just a couple of shitty days away from losing it anyway - might as well find a shtick and run with it.

Perhaps if you didn't hate black people you wouldn't be accused of being a racist.
