I am a woman of various inclinations and only some of the time are they to burn everything down in frustration

Good one, Jessica, I may have to steal

Jealous of your goal, Fred!! Jessica i think in these trying times that is a perfectly cromulent goal!

The weather has returned to our usual gray after a week of beauty. And my mood has cratered. Every day is the same. All things are boring. Big bowl of whyyyyyyy

What I want to say in my self-eval - Keep paying me and I will keep trying to get through the mountain of work that is dumped on me every day

I'm terrifically busy with my ennui.

The person I'm talking to about pharmacy benefits just went on a tangent about grapes.

If I end up getting the 'rona I'll know to blame it on taco Tuesday. I just went to a local Mexican restaurant that had five people crammed into the phone booth-style setup for to-go orders at the entrance, and another 8 or 9 construction workers constantly cycling in and out from the truck (singular!) they drove up in like a game of musical chairs.

MA schools are closed until the end of the school year and day cares until at least te the end of June. I'm assuming the same will apply to school camp.

Thrive to spite them

SC is supposed to make a decision about schools by the end of the week. I am going to guess they will continue school.. I mean they are opening up everything might as well open schools.

Got on the unemployment website and saw some info but had to register to work ....and I tried to do that and kept getting error messages. Have to try back later. But something got approved so that is good. Don't know when I'll get any money but at least there is some movement.

Please observe how valiantly I am not pouring myself a glass of the wine I needed to open to cook the lamb, because Work.

It's raining here which means the WiFi is being wonky and TCG won't be able to take ltc outside when he gets home. I'm very depressed today, and can't do anything to shake it off.
