Zuisa, as a veteran of the cat shelters, I can say that there's always at least one -- and usually several -- cats that you'll fall in love with. And you can't always predict which. When we volunteered, there were usually a couple of cats that all the volunteers loved. But beyond that -- just about every cat was one of somebody's favorites. Which made it nice, because every cat would get special attention.

Compassionately intolerant
I've been disappointed in the lack of red around my neighborhood, which was a sea of pink for the Women's March.
Still. Playdate has been achieved, plus two good walks and some paper sorting.
I'm also fasting, for the purpose of calming my system the heck down. I've been ooc with the awful eating lately. So, just healthy juices and tea for me today. I already feel better.

I am a woman of various inclinations and only some of the time are they to burn everything down in frustration
Neat, beth!
Started feeling like I am getting a sore throat, so having magic soup (Tom Yum).
One of my coworkers said conspiratorially "I know why you're wearing red...I saw the news" Made me laugh.

Have confirmed that the other woman in red was not coincidental. Solidarity! Only two of us, but that's something.

All sorrows can be borne if you put them into a story. Tell me a story.
Several of the guys at work are wearing red. Unless it's a hat, you don't notice so much outside. Everyone is wearing their black coats, like you do in Chicago. I am wearing my Nevertheless tee and I remembered to bring food so I don't have to go out and spend anything.

The only money I should spend today is for diet Coke from the vending machine. Because, solidarity, sisters, but there are limits.

Coding and Sleeping
I'm scheduled with Ops to push a bunch of my code to production tomorrow. Hoping everything goes smooth. It isn't customer facing. Just glad that the big customer-facing push today seems to be going smoothly so far.

this mess was yours / now your mess is mine
We're going to get groceries for Tim's dad, and I'm wearing a red t-shirt and red Chucks. His dad only watches Fox News (for real -- if the channel gets changed, he gets confused and angry and doesn't know how to get it back to Fox News), so I'm wondering if he'll pick up on my red clothes and give me shit about it. God only knows what crap Fox News has been saying about it.

With any luck he won't notice or think anything of it.
Good luck, Gud.
