All sorrows can be borne if you put them into a story. Tell me a story.

I need to have an unpleasant talk with an employee (not firing, but perhaps the first step). I probably shouldn't do that on April Fools Day, should I?

Yeah, probably no.

Nope, that should wait.

Retirement lunch was very nice. And I realize that I already see her more on Facebook than at work since she moved to a desk further away, so I should be able to keep up with her.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

So, I got an iPhone! A 5S, because I am cheap as hell. So I need a case for it? Where do you get that? Just anywhere?

Yup, wherever, just check that it fits your model. I've been letting my phone be caseless and naked for a while and I kind of like it, fwtw.

Anyplace that sells phone accessories will have cases for iPhones. You also can shop online (I buy mine on Amazon), but as -t said, be careful to check that it will fit your model.

Also, I've been so busy this week that I forgot to mention Reddit sent a message on LinkedIn about a job.

I never had a case for my other phone and it was fine, but it seems like the Thing To Do for an iPhone.

this mess was yours / now your mess is mine

I don't normally reply to emails that are clearly not meant for me (despite someone thinking that my email address is theirs), but I got one today about a 5-year-old soccer league, and it had dates for the team picture and whatnot, and I decided it would suck for the kid to miss the picture just because his/her parent gave out the wrong email address, so I replied. I hope they find the right parent.

(On the other hand, there is someone who may be missing all their dental appointments, because the confirmation email keeps coming to me.)

Wow. The coach already emailed me back and said thanks, and that she'd follow up with the parent. #winning

Places like TJ Maxx are good for older model covers.
