Heart~ma for your Ma, dcj

Getting off work, getting a ride back to my car, have to be back at the office for two to work in Palo Alto this afternoon. But after I'm done with that I have 5 days off, so that'll be nice.

And then Ortus came and said "It's Ortin' time" and they all Orted off into the sunset

I am a bad person because I find that line funny by now.

Wait, there are people who don't find that line funny?

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

Yeah, I'm pretty sure it's objectively funny now.

NOT funny: A friend of mine just called me to tell me a friend of her husband's died suddenly last night. Man. You just never know.

No, you do not.

I always thought "what's in the box" was funny, but I am not entirely right in the head.

Argh. So, I get home just now and today is my produce and egg delivery day so I expected to find my box full o food on the porch. Well, it was there, but tipped over, vegetables strewn about, the egg carton destroyed and just some bits of shell here and there. Looks like raccoon prints in the frost/dew, I would guess. I don't have the energy to go through the produce and see what else is missing right now, I need to sleep!

Another vet appt for Devi, end of the week.

As I left for work this morning, Loki was giving me Death Glare from the top of the stairs. He's definitely not happy about the new food routine. Luckily, he doesn't have much hate in him, so his Death Glare is more Confused and Annoyed Glare.

My sinuses hate me.

In sum, January is stupid.

Bummer about the food delivery, -t. Can you set up a box of some sort that the raccoons can't get into in the future?

I'm looking over a bunch of documents that will eventually go up on my org's website. I'm hoping there will be a revision process first. The phrase "Applying your learnings" isn't considered acceptable English anywhere except on cat macros, right?

Raccoons are no joke -- they can get into anything.

Who is that brash young go-getter in Marketing?

Which one?

The one applying his learnings!

"Faded like the lilac, he thought."

After waking at 4 and going back to sleep at five thirty, I slept until 8, a fact that the dog has informed me is woeful. But we are all awake in a warm house yay! Because it's 5 outside. Anyway, dog is fed, late breakfast is incoming, and I'm feeling better enough to sort and do some laundry and hopefully get office stuff done even if I'm not teaching. I'm still tired, but don't feel that bone deep exhaustion upon waking up today.
