I have been on hold for 24 minutes waiting to talk to an agent. They're playing country music right now. I may need bail money.

Talking to a person! Don't know if this will go better than the country music, but it's progress.

"There are few hours in life more agreeable than the hour dedicated to the ceremony known as afternoon tea."

On the organizing/productivity front, I cleaned out the fridges/freezers and then placed a Peapod order. I actually think doing twice a month Peapod orders (which has been a necessity because of the ice and snow) has actually worked out in favor of my budget instead of against it. Despite the delivery fees, I'm not at the market a couple times a week buying things I probably don't need.

The customer I'm talking to has a basket of kittens near him. I want a kitten.

I want a basket of kittens! I work at a library. Surely we could have baskets of kittens in the workplace.

What does "meteorological Spring" mean?

I am opposed to Daylight Savings time starting before the equinox. Who thought that was a good idea?

I read "basket of kittens" and think "oven full of witches" for some reason.

Fingers crossed for you, shrift!

So, appraisal guy was supposed to show up at 11AM. At 11:10, I called him (thinking maybe he was in traffic or having trouble parking), and he first said "No, we're at noon!" and then clarified "you're on 59th street, right?" Uh, no. So then he couldn't find me. I was like 'Dude, YOU left a VM for ME, we set this up a week and a half ago??" Finally he found it, realized it was his bad...and was like 'Uh, crap, I'm getting in the car now". He's 45 minutes away. I'm guessing he's not making his noon appointment?? Grrrr

I would also like a basket of kittens. It is not yet kitten season, however, so even though I'm home for a couple weeks, there are no kittens to foster.

They want to charge me $750+ to change my flight to Saturday morning. I could get the $200 change fee of that refunded possibly, but I guess I'll be cancelling the flight.
