Brenda, I'm glad he's got that.

In a small miracle, I didn't have to go to IT to admit I forgot my pin for the rsa token vpn authentication. I finally got it right. Which is good because I'll be working from home (next door) starting Monday until I can trust my cats to not get up in contractor's business in manners dangerous. It may be the whole job; I can just see Pumpkin trying to ride his shoulders while he's mudding.

My boss didn't think I was being a jerk the past few days, so that's nice. And retired former sup/coworker had some really kind and empowering words in response to my personal note of farewell.

I have so much to do this weekend. Gotta greatstuff some spots around the tub inside the walls where concrete got knocked loose, clear out some debris under tub, clear out LR, wrap a bunch of stuff in plastic (buy more plastic,) and maybe go buy paint, cause I'll be doing that bit myself. Though not until next weekend at soonest.

I was worried that my longtime favorite alley cat had been run over the other day, but a neighbor showed me a picture and the victim was a different color. Unless it was the long-vanished mom of my two cats I think all the locals are safe. I was trying to lure the half-grown kitten into being petted with a can of cat food tonight and all the adults except the one I was worried about materialized as if by magic.

Love is stronger than death and harder than sorrow. Those who practice it are fierce like the light of stars traveling eons to pierce the night.

Suzi, I'm glad the ball rolling is under way. You deserve recognition and a raise.

Matt, It's hard giving your heart to alley cats. I hope your fave shows up soon.

Sara, I suspect you are kickass and righteous people recognize that (I mean, I know you're kickass. But at work)

Brenda, the postmaster? And she carried things? That's kind of amazing.

Reasons I am moving the cats next door for the work: because I was typing on the laptop, Pumpkin HAD to be there and dunked the remote in my coffee. Even though it was not a direct drop, it involved two bounces. Drying out in the fridge, I hope.

Ate too much for breakfast, I fear. And now I have 20 minutes to kill before driving out to agility class. Suspect at least one of us will be sluggish.

Currently listening to Into the Woods. Because Broadway.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

I had too much for lunch, but luckily (?) I have no plans for dinner.

I put this on FB, too, but: Has anyone made Hostess-style chocolate cupcakes? And/or have an amazing chocolate (cup)cake recipe?
