Natter 72: We Were Unprepared for This
Off-topic discussion. Wanna talk about corsets, duct tape, or physics? This is the place. Detailed discussion of any current-season TV must be whitefonted.
I'm going to be really surprised if I get to swim tonight. It's just started thundering and NoVA is covered with lightning strikes on the map, and that is what is headed this way.
I should take this opportunity to go investigate paint. But it sucks out there so back. The stream behind work looks like the Colorado during melt season. The stream coming off the east side of Hampden is as bonkers as I've ever seen it.
Work, done. Title company, called. Contractor to repair house we're selling, called. Form saying we'll repair the house, done. BAM.
Now I just need to see if our bank will notarize something for us, and then there will be TV.
I haz a headache. I need a diet coke, and I am all out. My Uni has switched to Pepsi. I haz a sadz.
We had a "bomb threat" at school today. Luckily I was in the office when it happened so I knew to go gather my things in case we were outside for a long time. Which we weren't.
"bomb threat" as in a drill or a fake out call?
Third day in a row of karate! No more until Monday. I have plans to go dancing tomorrow night. Yay, physical activity!
OMG this day!
That was me yesterday! Today I have half-price chocolate and also less to do. Oooh, and actually, the day flew by -- I guess I had exactly the right amount to do!
Thanks for soothing my fears, everyone. Since I am 50 now, I think that once I get back from vacation, I will woman up and take a Valium and go get a mammogram. Really, it can't be as bad as I fear it is, or no one would ever do it twice.
Right now, I should be packing, but I'm anxiety-procrastinating. Hey, at least I
know
what I'm doing.
I have baked bread, done three loads of laundry, sent job hunt emails, sent my application for a gothy vending event, fed the crows, and had lunch. I want glittery star stickers for my productivity.
If only I could say I didn't have anything else to get done today. But no. Writing, more laundry, and bookcase culling.
Work has been somewhat quiet the last week and a half, mostly because a lot of people seem to be out of office. Now that I've determined that I need to create training materials & present them in a couple of weeks, guess what has happened to my inbox?
If you guessed that the work fairy took a poop in it, you get a cookie.
Timelies all!
Argh, this fucking day! I went to get something out of the big freezer at work, and a bunch of stuff fell off the top of it. Including a computer monitor, which fell on my foot. My jaw is tense and so are my shoulders.
Then there's the weather. Major rain storms, which led to me spending too much time in my car. Didn't even get to my appointment this afternoon due to the traffic, and the fact that the road I was taking to my appointment was closed due to flooding.
