this mess was yours / now your mess is mine

I have stopped doing anything other than watching Sleepy Hollow and Arrow on Hulu.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

And THEN I had a ten-minute call where I found out we are getting twice as much money as we thought we might be able to ask for. MAGIC.

So I guess I'm going to go now. It's my mom's birthday! I have to get her flowers.

Have Health Faired. My systolic blood pressure has gone up since last year, but diastolic (that's the bottom one, right?), blood sugar, and total cholesterol all went down.

No idea what to with that information, it's not like I have been consistently trying to do anything in particular. But I always like to have data.

Fandom means never having to say "But where would I wear that?"

Timelies all!

It's too cold for me today. Meh.

Aw, Chris Pratt talking about triathlons on Ellen. That's my sweet spot

Well, I got two reports done. One I had planned to do tomorrow, and did instead of one of the ones that was due today. Because that one is for an awful place and will require SO much documentation. ...still not a good reason, but at least it got done (tomorrow, many teleconferences, expenses, and the hard report plus one more easy one)

I experienced racism in horticulture today. A woman visiting from South Africa informed me that the Clivia in the greenhouse had a derogatory common name more offensive than the N word. It's the Kaffir Lily.

Yeah, once we get the new engraver running, that'll bd the first label to change.

Avocados are not available by the case this week. Woes.

The feeling you get when your brain finally lets your heart get in its pants.

I need to go get some avocados.

Good thing! The last time I had to go up to SF for work I put the wrong stall number in when I paid for parking, so I got a ticket, but I had managed to save my receipt, and appealed the ticket, pleading my own stupid, and they dismissed the ticket!
