Oh, at first it was confusing. Just the idea of computers was like — whoa! I'm eleven hundred years old! I had trouble adjusting to the idea of Lutherans.

Yes, on the outside. Like old-timey bartenders sleeves but legs instead of arms.

Off to google Babylon Berlin.

Our wings are not tired.

I use the iron on tape stuff for hems.

So did everyone wake up okay this morning? I stayed in bed until 7 as a protest. The dog was displeased. My car and computer and fitbit changed by themselves, but the oven, microwave, and coffee pot aren't that clever.

That was a lot of subtitles! I just could not stop watching.

Yeah. Subtitles are normally out for bingeable shows, and I had to rewatch the first half of the first episode because I was only sort of paying attention. I'm tempted to try the books they're based upon, but I think only the first two are translated into English yet, and the whole series isn't done.

Every now and then, I think I might actually be a little odd.

Laura, I'm up despite my own protests.

Too much going on today.

So far so good, Laura. Have done my 30 minutes of Happy Light and getting out of bed now.

Thrive to spite them

Best Buy sees a lot of weird and old stuff come through recycing. When I worked there it was kinda fun to see what was brought in. One time everyone was talking about the Nintendo Cube and games that were brought in. A few people were wishing they could take it home.

I would double check the policy on CRT monitors before taking it in. I think there are restrictions and maybe a fee.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

I woke up at the normal time-ish, which is good, because I guess my body was trying to wake up an hour early?

Had a good chat with my boss this morning, where she suggested I talk to HR before following up with the staff. And confirmed that it basically was the one bad apple, which I am now going to banish from my thoughts so I can keep working with her.

So I have do a basic background check to get a government badge for a thing and ....they misspelled my name on the background check/ ID verification submission.

Why do I think this might turn into a mess?

Love is stronger than death and harder than sorrow. Those who practice it are fierce like the light of stars traveling eons to pierce the night.

I had training in what to do if I mispelled someone's name when running a background check for caregiver employment. Darned if I remember how to do it, though. There SHOULD be a way for them to fix it, but every system is different so I do not know how big a PITA it will be, sarameg.
