I'm essential!!!

Not always good news.

Oahu is kicking up a windstorm. Yesterday morning, Scott and I woke to find a lot of items previously not on the floor now on the floor. After I dragged Scott to the gym and then went to work, I started hearing whispers of some Mayor-given directive. We're isolating two floors below ground so we're in a little cocoon. But later in the night, the higher-ups actually drove back in to town and our director came to talk to us. Apparently, because of the impending high winds still to come, Mayor Mufi had issued the day off for all non-essential city workers. And our supervisor told us "technically, you guys are NON-essential." Yah!!! I was pretty happy being non-essential.

Then our director came in later and said "No, technically, you guys are still non-essential, but we want you guys to come into work anyway." So, everyone else is home, and I'm here at work. Aaww, darn being so important.

Woke up this morning, not even a breeze.
