I hear ya... I've been working from 8 am to 7ish, and running off to rehearsal until 10. Makes for a long day...
Brd -- its more like 3!
Whew, just got in from a long day. Leaving for Raleigh tomorrow.
I am ready to drop so early, and I always end up staying up late!
I get that Liotte.
Too bad I've got too much crap to do, and I have a car picking me up at 6 a.m. Boo.
Yikes, that's early!
Have a good trip, Shira!

Shira, are you off to do a photo shoot?
The winds of change are blowing at the firm and my banker's hours are ending soon!
Banker's hours? What does that mean?

Banker's hours
The hours a banker keeps. In idiomatic use, the phrase is often a synonym for a shorter-than-normal work day or work week, as banks used to close earlier than most businesses and take more holidays.
Ooh, I would like to take banker's hours!!

I am not that lazy, but I do like to leave at 5!
I read some London Wicked reviews on the main board, I really hoped to get there this year. (my wife has family in England, Scotland and Wales)
Brd, its not quite a photo shoot. More like 200 some-odd debutantes, their families, and all that jazz. It's exhausting.
Shira, the only knowledge of that world I have is from the old tv show, Rags to Riches, in which one of the girls was entered into a debutante contest.
Brd, if I left work by 5 everyday, there is no way I could pull myself away from doing lottos every single day! Now by leaving later, I don't see shows as often. Which is good. In some ways.

I recall you did that last year with your father?
Brd, I do it every year with my Dad. It's our father-daughter-business time.

That really is nice, I did math with my daughter tonight!
It's not bad. I mean, its exhausting, and I always get a good shot of adrenaline when I do it.
But as for father-daughter. Well, its the only time we spend together that's NOT a lecture or about veganism or my weight.

Do you get a check for it?
It would have to be a pretty high of a check to get me to spend that much time with the parents!
Broadway Legend Joined: 1/14/05
That will change with time. I really need to get home to see my parents!
Yeah, I've already started seeing some of those signs of it changing. Not counting the Hawaii trip and the arguments with my mother.

I limit my arguments to future life plans - they need to get into assisted living!
Brdlwyr, I DO get a check. I insist on being treated like ALL other employees when I work with my Dad. Which means, I get my own hotel room, and I get respected and treated (and therefore paid as well), like other employees.

It could be worse brd. MUCH worse.
I'll be back Saturday. It's a 26 hour trip!
