I'm still reeling in shock that Vividcon is no more. I mean, it's years since I attended, but now I can feel that it's even gone as a possibility.

And for some reason, this year it feels like SO MANY friends are attending Worldcon in Dublin. (This is not helped that I'm driving a friend to the airport tomorrow to catch her flight there.)

I'll just sit here stewing a little for a while, okay?

Came home from lunch with the parents to find Bailey the dog had destroyed two pages of work stuff.

I think I was able to piece it back enough to get the info I need off it, and there should be other copies of both pages.

UGH - doggo must be feeling the stress of the house.

I'm terrifically busy with my ennui.

AUGH fucking urgent care didn't give me a steroid last night, because they don't do it if it's too late in the day because it messes with sleep, okay fine, but he didn't TELL ME, so I think the visit was pointless because it's the fucking steroid that gets rid of the migraine. Goddamnit.

I am working this afternoon to get a jump on this week since I'll be taking Thursday to travel and might be unavailable Friday to work remotely and/or there can always be issues with working remotely.

Just hit a block on a task that has to be done by tomorrow anyway. Division of labor between our offices on another does not seem to be working. They are not doing half of their part which keep me from being able to do any of mine.

I just emailed them and cc'd both of our bosses. I hope to push a chunk of this workload back to them and avoid this repetitive problem any longer.

Alas today I am just having to go in and do their bit so that I can can plug away.

Any chance that camera film 15 years past use by date that has been in my fridge aside from the move here would be any good? and would anyone here want it?

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

I have a friend who is interested. What kind of film?
