Our wings are not tired.

Those bottle walls have half a mile of LED tape built into them by my crew.

Nice!

I'm terrifically busy with my ennui.

This morning, I forgot a 7:30AM meeting, which will be turning into another recurring 7AM meeting.

So today is going great so far.

I remember the crazy days. 500 posts an hour. Nubmer! Natgbsb

This morning my alarm was off, but I still got up in time. Whew!

Yesterday was my first official work from home Wednesday. There was an issue with one of the main things I was gonna work on, so I took lots of breaks and cleaned a lot in my house. Exactly what employers fear about people working from home.

Relatedly, my Christmas tree is finally down and put away. Don't Judge.

Getting the Xmas tree down before Easter is a win.

Y'all, I do not want two more workdays this week. Can we just not?

-t, a couple of months ago I spotted a tree left at the curb ... from Christmas 2015. They did pick it up, along with the last of the 2016 trees, but it was pretty pitiful-looking.

And, this may be relevant to your interests: the Olivarez Honeybee Festival. They're offering starter packs of bees ....

That is relevant to my interests! Unfortunately I am otherwise engaged on that day, because if that's the site I think it is in Orland it would be well worth the drive!

How could you tell the tree was from 2015? Have you been seeing it for that long?

yup - it'd been lying on the strip of grass between the street and the sidewalk that long - I walked by it every morning on my way to the bus (there's a local blog that always posts the last tree of the year ... and this seems to have set a record)

As a follow-up to the unwanted task ... guy in question came back from one of his jaunts and the boss spoke with him ... much furor, complaining, justifications ... basically a temper tantrum ... but I'm not doing his expense reports, so I can just smile and go on.

Wow on the tree. Yay on not getting stuck doing that guy's expense reports!

Hair color report - went with turquoise and purple yesterday, with more foils, because that will go with my troupe's costuming for Saturday. Pic on FB. The dye is called Pulp Riot and is showing up well in my hair without bleach, we'll see how it fades if I take some care to rinse with cold water.

Also try using non-chlorinated water ... the local tap water is heavily chlorinated, especially in warm weather, and my hair was getting really unpleasant looking. So, yeah, I'm using bottled water on my hair.
