Just for my own eggs. We are on less than a quarter acre in the city of Nashville - a farming operation is unfortunately beyond our ability.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
At this rate, the chances seem slim that the "2 days" will not run into Friday. My new boss really REALLY wants me in the office (not just working) on Friday.
How is this normal? Check in at 8, no bed at 2, but no apology? I get shit happens, but in my little sphere I'm being jerked around related to important stuff (like not pissing off the CIO) and even though I'm not an ICU patient, I still want someone to meet me some of the way.

You did the right thing by getting him off the streets! We can't take in All the Pets even though it is my retirement plan to be the craxy lady with All the Pets.
I am already that lady, I fear.

I am the fly who dreams of the spider
We used to have ducks and geese but we had dogs, so they only got to roam the yard sometimes, when the dogs were locked up in the house. It actually put me off eggs for awhile, having to go gather them covered in shit. The ducks were Huey, Dewey, and Louie. The geese were Gus and Gertrude. Ravens got the ducks, and the geese went to a farm, so my parents say. They bit my crotch enough that I wouldn't be sad if they ended up as someone's Thanksgiving dinner.
Read a hilarious article about a couple experimenting with ducks for pest control. Yeah, they controlled the pests, and then ate or trampled the rest of the vegetable garden. The couple then ate the ducks.

Cool Giant bird sculptures made from construction equipment.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
I'm having my first corn for dinner! Yay corn! And while the water was boiling (I boiled way more water than I needed), I made a cucumber-yogurt salad AND a big green salad, so who knows what I will eat next? Yes, it is CSA day.
ita, that sounds shitty. It should not be that much on you to be flexible, I think.

Now they don't even know if they are admitting me today--and I'm sure the joy of admissions comes with "and then when do they treat me?"
The key is to not let this stress me out, but also this is ridiculous. There is some implied commitment on their end when they ask me to show up at 8am this morning. Do they really have (calm) patients sit around in the uncomfortable chairs for seven hours? God forbid someone sick should come in, with anything they needed treatment for.

Yes, it is CSA day.
Woo hoo! I finally burned through the Swiss chard so today will be a kale day. I think I'll braise it and put a poached egg on top and mop everything up with some dark rye bread.
