Fuck Cancer. I just found out our real estate agent died earlier this month. He was such a nice guy and worked so hard to find us this home. When he got our Christmas card last Christmas and found out about ltc, he came right over with a gift. He lived in our neighborhood and used to beep every time he drove by. This sucks. I need to send a card to his wife.

I am watching the first episode of Frankie and Grace and Lily Tomlin is eating ice cream with Jameson. I can get behind that combo and am bummed I do not have ice cream in the fridge. Guess I'll just have to stick with the Jameson.

Supposed to be doing my yearly review right now but my manager is drinking beers with most of the office at the moment. I wasn't planning on leaving for a good hour or so anyhow so I think I'll just do some other work.

I'm terrifically busy with my ennui.
Yahoo Mail on my phone is sending me news notifications, which are all about politics. WTF. I want mail, not a crushing dose of reality.

I think I'm going to run out to the store and get ice cream. Among other things. Dog food, cat food, stuff to make chicken soup, bread, and ice cream.
It's tiny in the grand scheme of things, but I don't know how I'm going to get through 4 years of people referring to Melania with no last name and meaning Mrs. Trump. That's my sister's name, makes for a lot of double takes.

I don't remember how I got it to stop doing that, but aggravation does fuel determination.

I need to do that!
I took today off work because I figured I'd need it, even though I usually work from home. I felt kind of guilty but there haven't been any emergencies yet, so hey. No regrets.
I'm taking the day to tackle the stack of library books and DVDs. And I'm drinking a lot of tea, and staying off FB and Twitter. It's nice.

work was not bad. I got my posters printed for the march tomorrow (lady at FedEx seemed less than impressed).
I bought Mexican food for lunch and some consolation cupcakes.
I also got to leave work early, so now I guess I should assemble my signs.

I do have to vent here about 1 thing. some of you saw the post on fb.
so about 4, I get a text that says. "Hi, my name is ______. I meta woman last week at the Toyota dealer. I cannot find her card and cannot remember her name. She gave me your # and said you were going to the women's march in Denton tomorrow. May I join you?"
WHA?!?! I did have one friend ask me if she could give my info to another friend who was planning to attend, but that is not what this read like.
I went back and found my friend's PM and it is the same first name, but wrong last name, so I PM my friend and start asking questions. DId you mean this last name? You said this was a friend, but this lady says you met last week and she can't even remember your name.
So yep - my friend (someone I knew for 2 years, over a decade ago, but have been fb friends with for over 5 years) gave my info to her car salesperson who she just met last week, but "really hit it off with". She doesn't know this person AT ALL. good lord. Well at least it is just meeting her there, because I WAS NOT going to be giving a ride to her.
