I hope in the hours since you've found some healthy respite, ita.
I dislike having meetings run by people in the late afternoon who don't know how to keep it on focus or end it. I just wanted to go home...
But I understand. You gave up everything you had to find me. And you found me broken. It's hard for you.

I have that for travel now that I'm a French press pot woman. Used to be my main coffee maker when I was a one cup, not 3. Ish.
So this weekend I had cleared off and decluttered my coffee table. I've now bruised/scraped both knees on its corners. Maybe I needed the clutter to notice its spacial location...

Ita, I'm sending you all the good "make shit work out" vibes I can. Brenda, how's your dad's foot?
We have an aeropress that we love, but we dream about espresso fairly often.
I have absolutely zero love for a certain recruiter who practices bait-and-switch tactics on busy biochemists. Zero.

I'm a fan of pour-over coffee, but rarely have the time in the morning. French press and pour over are for days when I have time to putter over my coffee.

You should sit in our after school meetings. Even though I don't run them and I have a boss who is all about self-narration, I do a pretty okay job with saying, "Okay, so for the minutes, what should I say about this action item?"
