Remember that the frontier of the Rebellion is everywhere. And even the smallest act of insurrection pushes our lines forward.

Yay job! Boo fall. When I had a running fall last month, I washed the scrapes out with soap and water (ow), and used bandaids and neosporin for a couple of weeks. Then I went to letting them air out and scab up at home and using bandaids when I was out and about. The worst one, on my knee, is down to its last bit of healing now. You can't see where I banged up my elbow. So, I guess it was the right call? It might have healed faster/worse doing something else? Hard to say. At least half of my plan was motivated by keeping bodily fluids off my clothes and soft furnishings.

Every now and then, I think I might actually be a little odd.
I was exhausted most of the day because at 3am I had to console a distraught kitty. ISTG, I think she had a nightmare and woke up in the living room scared and alone.
I believe it. My Niko cat used to have nightmares and need snuggles.
Glad you got the job offer, Consuela.
FedEx woke me at 8am because they couldn't find my house, and then hung up on me as I was trying to give them directions. It's 8:40 and there's no sign of them. I guess they gave up and someone else will try tomorrow to navigate the dimensional rift I live in.

Whooo! Consuela. Or should that be TENTATIVE Whoo!

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
Good news, Consuela!
On the scrape front, I guess I recommend not doing nothing, because a couple really minor scrapes I got last summer are still visible and it's annoying. They were so minor, I didn't think to treat them at all!

We have a corpse flower in bloom in Denver. People are flipping out to go smell the thing. I'll pass, personally. When they hand out barf bags just to check out a flower...ummmm, pass.

corpse flower
It's amazing how large they can get. But yeah, I wouldn't want to smell one, either.

Yay job!
On opposite job news front, we are letting someone go here today. He was upset with work stuff last week, went home got drunk (we suspect) and sent texts with threats. Very specific killing people threats. Not me, mind you. Things are a wee tense while we all wait for him to get here. He was not here the last two days, told to stay home on suspension.
