Life moves pretty fast. You don't stop and look around once in a while, you could miss it.
Also having a day. It's 98 degrees out and we had our yearly fire drill, which involved walking down 17 floors of stairs and standing around in the sun for an hour waiting to be given the all-clear.

Bleh! I would object to 17 floors of stairs.

Yeah, I'm not getting to swim tonight. (Even if lightening stopped right now...I'd lose the laplanes before even halfway through until 8 pm...and it isn't stopping.)
And work people are being even more stupid.

I'm sorry people are being stupid and weather is not co-operating.
The bath mat I had washed the other day disintegrated enough to clog up the washing machine drain tube, which I discovered trying to to a quick load of laundry this morning before work. I have done this before, so the actual fix was not too arduous, but it was kinda gross and then everything had to be washed again and I was trying to work fromhome at the same time and OF COURSE stuff came up that was virtually impossible to do on my little chromebook so I am going to be at the office for a very long time now that I have made it in. And I smell like bleach.
So that's my day so far. But at least now I have coffee.

t, I recently gave up and decided I was perfectly happy in hotel rooms using a towel on the floor, so why not at my own house, where I can wash it a heck of a lot easier and more frequently than the bathmat I used to have. Probably looks worse but makes my Virgo heart happier

True. I will have to remember to pick up said towel is the main challenge, or the elderly cat who has decided to retire to the bathroom will use it in preference to her litterbox (which is RIGHT THERE WHY CAT WHY?) but that is actually true of the bathmat, too. Hence the washing to disintegration.

Our wings are not tired.
Yes, the hotel type towel bath mats are really perfect. I should get those instead of the fall apart in the washer/dryer variety.

Every now and then, I think I might actually be a little odd.
I am finally caught up with almost a month of Natter. While I was at my sister's healing this ankle. Her internet connection sucks, I could barely work, and social media was too bandwidth heavy. Also I was mentally just not able to engage with much of anything. So I hibernated and buried myself in a dark hole of Politics Twitter.
Hi, Buffistas. I missed you.
