second chair massage

 at work i had a chair massage appointment mid-morning. it can be hard to snag an appointment when those fill up quickly, it was just the second for me since i had moved to this building nearly two years ago. there are some paid appointments but like most people i prefer the complimentary ones. this is now being offered once a week onsite. i spoke a lot with the massage therapist during the fifteen minutes, some of it was about baseball and how there were two teams known as the sox. i knew there would be a courier for the tax checks but said i needed to get to the appointment. i later found out the courier wasn't there yet. when the courier arrived, it was with a mailroom employee, he was late and one i hadn't seen before, likely new. for lunch i had some pizza, as the boss had gone to a place called Broadway and i got the second half of a meat lovers pizza. i had been there before but usually get a single slice and this was likely equal to more than that when it came in a box. a colleague who had picked up checks this week asked me to return them to the boss. there was some confusion, though. these were not from the special project. i do sorting and those from the special project say so in the window of the envelope. those are not opened at all, and those envelopes go into some former copy paper boxes in the shop. we have currently filled seven of them. i am still wondering when the returned check volume will slow down. this colleague said most of the checks from the special project were low dollar amounts. when i opened one that was sent back in a different envelope, i said it wouldn't buy a meal at my favorite sandwich shop.
