Thanks to meara talking about it, I got a massage at the airport today. Ahhhh, decadence.
I have another hour to kill before my flight so it is dinner at the bar with a book. Wheee.
Y'all see the man hanging out of the spaceship with the really big gun? Now I'm not saying you weren't easy to find. It was kinda out of our way, and he didn't want to come in the first place. Man's lookin' to kill some folk. So really it's his will y'all should worry about thwarting.

That sounds really nice.
My dinner won't be ready until about 8pm. So late! I am subpar on keeping myself fed this week.
ETA and that was before I realized I completely omitted the breadcrumbs and egg from my meatloaf. Ah well, maybe it will hold together. And maybe I will turn it into katleti. Either way, will probably taste pretty good. Eventually.
Maybe I will stop trying to accomplish things for today.

Today, I continued my streak of breaking things in ops that never should have made it through test. Sigh.

It's so warm in my apartment that my knees are sweating, so I'm not sure what I'm having for dinner since my hot food options are unappealing now.

It's just exhausting. And everyone gets mad at you (for pointing out their lack of foresight, for not being prescient, for bogging everything down because of all in a very public manner,) but luckily I have a thick skin. And have been very diplomatic in pointing out the flaws in the system design that have serious implications.
As we look at changes coming end of September that make those system design changes really problematic.
All because test does not even begin to mimic ops in terms of true volume(s) and this is a bugaboo we've had since... 1991. Never been listened to. One lesson we can't get the mission to learn.

Salad, constructed or not ( cuke spears, cherry toms.)
Also, froz (veg?) packs on your neck, head, wrists. Helps.
And ice cold wine.

Softer cheese like brie, cream cheese, or sour cream (which is not really cheese, I know) that has mold is something I'll toss out entirely.
Wait. People have cheese long enough that it molds? How?
I was an asshole today. and I didn't realize how much until I got home. All through dinner I had that itchy anxious feeling until I could apologize. Now I feel betterish.

I made the mistake of checking work email.
Now I want to nuke everyone from orbit.

Wait. People have cheese long enough that it molds? How?
Sometimes a hunk of cheese gets pushed to the back of the cheese drawer (we, uh, have a LOT of cheese in the cheese drawer, seriously...we might need an intervention), and if I forget about it and it doesn't manage to rotate to the front, it gets moldy. (See also, the Great "When Did We Buy Manchego?" Incident of 2013.)
