Calling all troops!

[x-madelyn.livejournal.com]

Since the medlab needs it, and things are relatively quiet at the moment, and Jean and I agree, it's time to declare Friday our annual "Clean Up Medlab From Top To Bottom" Day. All helpers and staff to report bright and early - Moira, you get to be supervisor. There's a hat and a badge and everything. *grins* If we all pitch in, we'll get it done in plenty of time for the traditional pizza and soda session by the pool in the afternoon.

oh, you know I'm there! I even have kinda cute kneepads and everything from scrubbing floors (what? you think all I do is get covered in body fluids? I CLEAN)

Sometime after lunch I've managed to convince Paige to go shopping with me, so we'll vanish for a bit, but given no one else seems to be in dire need of a swimsuit, it shouldn't take too long. If everything's not done when we leave, and is when we get back, I'll swap you and Hank one night shift each.

I thought you were going today? That's why I grabbed Friday instead, to make sure you could have your theraputic shopping trip... In any case, that's fine, and given the fact Paige is off the 'under observation' list and running off the beeper if she needs anything at night, perhaps we can declare an end to night shift? At least until the next time we have an incumbent patient...

...

And this just goes to show how dangerous these journals are, and how you should never turn on your computer before you've had your coffee. My range isn't even good enough yet that I could claim I was picking up on the dreams of someone in, I don't know, Japan or Australia or somewhere where it is Friday.

Definitely need more coffee.

(But yes, I think we can cut the night shift for the most part, unless there's a mission out, in which case one of us ought to be awake when they come back.)

*grins* We tend to live on Medlab TIme any way. I'm lucky if I get months right sometimes...

If coffee is needed, there's a fresh pot on its way down shortly. As soon as I find my shoes.

(But of course. And I think suspending nights to mission-only will give all of us a break. Which is good considering our new arrivals and the attention they need.)

Well, classes proper haven't started yet, so it can't be September. And many, many thanks for the coffee. Please don't mind the redhead mobbing you when you get down here, I'm just a tad caffine deprived.

(Definitely. With a pair quasi-out on mater/paternity leave, we need to find a way to cut back or we'll go crazy. And we did manage before when it was just me, and Hank when he wasn't on tours or working elsewhere.)

[x-madelyn.livejournal.com]

There you go using logic on me. *pouts* And you're most welcome to the coffee - and the donuts I happened to find on my way down to the kitchen. *grins*

(Agreed. Crazy is Bad. And I have no doubt you managed to manage admirably on your own before, but the school population has trebled since those days. With a bit of careful scheduling, I can't see why we can't all get decent working hours. Unless we want to live in the lab. ;) )

Hey, the logic only narrows it down to 1/4 of the year. Could still be June or July, far as I'm concerned. Well, except I've got this final for the summer Shakespeare class to plan... And how do you always manage to find the donuts? I go looking and they are nowhere, and yet you appear and there are donuts. Are you hiding them?

(Oh, agreed, there's no way I'd want to go back to it being just me with this many students and staff (so many of whom are accident prone). And anyone who wants to live in the lab is free to do so, but I'm reccomending a psyche eval. for them...)

[x-madelyn.livejournal.com]

Ah, the donuts. *grins* I have the mutant power to generate donuts out of thin air?

(Thought you'd see it that way. Although, at risk of jinxing us, it's been an amazingly quiet summer...)

[x-jeangrey.livejournal.com]

-suspicious look- You are hiding them, aren't you. Don't try to lie to the telepath...

(It really has. Although if the next crises comes any time soon I'm blaming you for saying this. :) )

[x-madelyn.livejournal.com]

A magician never reveals her secrets. Blame my mad detective skillz. ;)

(I know. Biting my tongue and touching wood as a type. One handed. ;) )

[x-jeangrey.livejournal.com]

:P Well, so long as you're always willing to share...

[xp_daytripper]

I'll be there whenever you want.

Sure thing - would also be a good time to make the medlab staff all aware of where all the new materials are, and if they haven't been shown how they're used, that too.

[x-madelyn.livejournal.com]

Very good idea. Oh, and while I'm thinking of it... Jean, do you think Paige would like to join in? She's so good with the organising, and she's done a lot down here lately to help out, that gives her honorary helper status in my book. Even if it's just paperworky stuff if she's not up to full strength yet (her chart's down there and I'm up here and I haven't seen the results of her latest tests yet).

[x-jeangrey.livejournal.com]

I imagine she would. Will mention it this afternoon.

[x-rahne.livejournal.com]

Will be there.
