Bigger law firms tend to be pretty good for holidays, less good for preventing you from having to work on them. A couple of years back I literally lost every extra day off given over the year because of work demands. But I’m also no longer an employee, so no violins for me.

Yeah, I'm off tomorrow, except for that 10:30-11:30 AM meeting I have to [virtually] attend...

That one can't be helped much. We've been scrambling for an industry event next Thursday where I'll be on a panel discussion, and tomorrow was the only time we could get our last planning session given that it's coordinating between 4 companies.

Have the meeting in a sauna.

"It's the only hour I had."

Also, got an Endo appt. this afternoon, so that means I don't even have to use any time off for it.  Same imaging that caught my kidney cancer caught lumps on my thyroid, but the kidney took priority, and it took forever to get in with Endo here.  They're doing the aspiration today (basically the equivalent of a biopsy, for a thyroid), but the doc already said due to good function and good lab results, and statistics, it's almost certainly not cancer.  They'll check to rule it out, and then that's one more thing not to be bothered about. 

this for the grumpy thread:::::::::::

Uncle Skeeter has Thyroid cancer - he told me this in text
He was going to stay Saturday and Sunday night this weekend but isn't feeling it now.
Appt with the Doc in Minneapolis Monday.

thanks
hopefully it won't be a real bad deal

Yeah nobody around here gets Juneteenth off.  Maybe state workers?  I don't think I know any, anymore.

State workers in the TSUS do, anyway.  I'm not sure if it's all state workers or if that stuff can vary by agency/school system.  

I've seen both of you hammered at a bar.

I think I have, anyway.

DevilFroggy and Erin got me hammered at the same time, so it's possible I'm not sure what I remember. 

Probably not me because I was always driving. Of course, things were a bit different 20 years ago (yes, it's been almost that long).

You're gonna blame @DevilFroggy ? Was he dumping booze down your throat?

Sorry to hear that. 

I'm no medical person, but my understanding is it's one of the better kinds to have, if you have to have it.  They'll probably remove his thyroid and he'll be on thyroid meds from then on.  I don't think it's a very aggressive one that spreads quickly.  Hopefully there's no more to it than that. 

yes, he doesn't seem too worried.  Just waiting to hear what the big city doc says on Monday.
