Freezing fog this morning. It's frosted every branch and wire and surface and angle, and enough cars have gone over the roads that they've worn off what's there. Still, barely-100-yard visibility is less than fun to drive in. Even most of the nutcakes have slowed down. My office is high enough on the mountainside that we're above the fog, and the valley below is a big pile of cloud.

NoMoore! Personally, I wish there was video of whatever went down with Omarosa at the White House last night.

I'm fairly claustrophobic and was nervous about getting an MRI when I had to get one (with a regular MRI machine). What really helped was that air was flowing through the MRI so I didn't feel like I couldn't get air.

I tried to have a regular MRI once. It did not go well.

(Whoops, wrong thread. We were talking about this in Bitches. Not that I'm worried, just so it doesn't confuse people who are like MRI WUT?)

B&T (new shortcut for son and GF or DIL) suggested we go on a trip so we are looking at New Orleans. It is only $113 round trip for the flight from Fort Lauderdale!! DH's birthday is the 28th. So maybe getting away.

::apparates:: AROO?!?

I had to get up super early for meetings this morning. The MUNI driver, who was a black woman, did me a solid and waited long enough for me to get on the train because she saw me running up the hill. If I can figure out how to get her props online, I will do it. It was still dark when I arrived downtown but dawn was breaking, so the Bay Bridge was lit up and beautiful. Those are my "maybe everything isn't hopeless bullshit" moments from today.

That was me! Scrolling back, a little confused. Thank you.

I used to do freelance copyediting for recipe bloggers. I thought it was so weird they had to tell a little story before they gave the dang recipe.

My very vague and possibly wrong understanding is that they have to have some sort of "original" content so they can get ad and affiliate link revenue.

Those are my "maybe everything isn't hopeless bullshit" moments from today.

Those are good ones! And we need every "maybe everything isn't hopeless bullshit" moment that we can get.

I was supposed to have a vaca day today, but I left 1.5 hours early yesterday with some things undone so I popped in. Turns out the other 2 office people are at training and boss did not come in to help, so one guy was trying to cover it all. I stayed, planned to leave at lunch. A million mistakes were found, I did not leave. Now the other guy has gone to lunch and only a very new yardhsnd is left outside here, so I don't feel like I can leave. I am unpleased with these turns of event.

Co-workers got take-out for lunch: "God is good. Fries are great."
