Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

Oh jeez, dcp. Glad you're OK!

All sorrows can be borne if you put them into a story. Tell me a story.

I echo everything sj just said.

then I remembered that Marvelous Mrs. Maisel is filming in my neighborhood

I'm not sure who is filming in my neighborhood, but they had a whole lot of gear in the funeral home behind my building today.

Days shrink and grow cold, sunlight through leaves is my song. Winter is long.

Congratulations, dcp! I mean, commiserations on your car, but we're glad you're still here and unscathed.

Happy Anniversary, Sheryl!

"And that's why God Almighty gave us fire insurance and the public defender".

Thank you, all.

Happy anniversary, Sheryl.

Re:probiotics to help with intense antibiotics. I recommend Florstar. That, plus some deeply unpleasant drugs, helped me recover from a post-antibiotic bout of C. difficile. The next time I'm on antibiotics I'm going to start taking Florstar proactively, because C. dif. is no joke.

I'm terrifically busy with my ennui.

The person who's supposed to run this morning's meeting is having sound issues, so we're all sitting here, discussing how her mic isn't working.

Now she's called in, but she's having problems sharing her screen, so we're all discussing what she needs to click.

I really like this particular coworker, but oh my gawd.

I like Florastor, too, even though it's a bit pricey. Worth it, IMO.

Our wings are not tired.

I'll have to remember the Florastor if they ever force me to take antibiotics again. Ick, hates them.
