So my boss is thinking of cancelling the lease for our office and just having both of us work from home. This would save me from two hours of commuting each day, so I say, "Yay!"

If we end up going that route, it would happen in February.

Huge YAY, tommyrot. Cutting out that commute would be fantastic.

Yes, especially during February (I get tired of the cold by then).

Being able to work from home makes me feel like I'm living in the aughts.

My legs are seriously sore, but being outside and walking so much was really nice, so I am going to really try to motivate for walking either at lunch or once I get home.

I do. I'm afraid of unleashing it on the world.

Excellent. It's not science unless you take notes.

Total yay, especially in the depths of winter.

Ugh, Monday. You are the worst. I thought about calling in sick, but there's too much to do and I'd be stuck listening to loud construction noises all day if I did.

I decided yesterday to preemptively call in sick so I wouldn't be tempted to force myself to go into the office this morning. Which was the right call, but now I am working from home instead of napping, which will probably seem like a better call tomorrow but is kind of a drag right now.

You might be able to get them to cover your phone/internet as well.

My god, I do not have the patience for the Northeasterner tendency to argue every step of the way. "It's broken, why is it broken! Why did your people break this? Did you know it was broken? It wasn't broken this morning! What did you do!" Fucking drama queens. Nothing puts my temper to the breaking point like people for whom everything has to be accompanied by outrage and exclamation points.

The aggressive ignorance of Texans (yes, that's a probably unfounded stereotype, but I own it) is just annoying, but it does not trigger rage like the ones--most often Northeasterners--who attack first and always. And I'm a born Northeasterner! Unless rural western Pennsylvanians are different.

I think I have successfully swapped my old modem for the new one, and remaining work-work can wait until tomorrow. That's probably all I'm getting done today.

Good luck with dropping the commute, tommyrot!

Other than popcorn not appealing to me at all right now, Hec's crack!corn sounds pretty good. Maybe I can find something else to through those flavors on to...

Started email convo with Mac's math teacher. Always fun to try and get across the sentiment that yes he is a great kid, but just to let you know he will lie to you and me as long as you let him slide. She had no entered any zeros in for his homework until the end of the six weeks so I did not catch his failing until then WHEN IT IS TOO LATE TO FIX! Jesusita chica, give parents info to work with.
