Something has been beeping outside my apartment for over three hours, and I'm about to put a nail gun to my head if it doesn't stop soon. DH actually went outside to see if he could pinpoint it. Sounds like a truck backing up but it's been going on for HOURS.
May have been the losing side. Still not convinced it was the wrong one.

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

I am a woman of various inclinations and only some of the time are they to burn everything down in frustration
-t, what makes a breakfast cookie a breakfast cookie?
It was just that when I was making them, I was thinking they would make good breakfasts. Bacon cheddar shortbread, basically. Turns out they also make pretty good dinners!
Hope you feel better soon, Suzi, and I hope that infernal beeping stops, Jess.

We're pretty sure it's coming from either the mosque or the daycare which share an alley with our building. And it will probably go on all night.

Now I need to know if indeed the beeping continued all night....

How are you feeling this morning, Theo? I hope the general soreness from the fall has lessened.

Nothing like heading into the office at 6 am unwashed with plane funk after a long day of powertools and unpacking. Only ran into security and facility dudes. But I have my laptop, have vpn, am working from home and waiting for the plumber. And I have to use the bathroom but am going to wait until my gracious neighbor goes to work.
I don't wanna.
Also, arriving at BWI is getting worse and worse. Landed on time, no gates. Wait 40 minutes on tarmac for gate. Then another 45 minutes to get baggage. It is ridiculous.

Toe achey, awaiting podiatrist office to open. I'm finding that remembering my yoga 'stand foursquare' on the foot (so that no weight is on the toes) is helping the most. As is elevating and icing every once in a while.
The bruising is even more spectacular this morning.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
Woo, slightly hung over after delicious birthday dinner at a long-time favorite New York restaurant.... NYCistas, I was going to stay here longer to see more people, but decided I need more home time. Soon, off to the train.
