and in other news I can find the probe part of my thermometer , but not the actual probe. Things keep dissapearing ...

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

Most impressive. Of course it is now past 5 here, so I say go for it. Also, {{{-t}}

Side-note: what is the point of fat-free Half & Half? Shouldn't it just be called Half?

I did not know such a silly thing existed! Much ~ma for your residents Theo. It's a real plus to get the regular testing.

I went to the grocery store! First time in weeks. I'd say 70% of people ignored the one way signs in aisles. Grrr.

This reminds me I need to add thermometer to my spam list. Seriously, the number of emails I get.

I've always avoided the fat-free half and half ... as far as I can tell, they compensate for the taste issue (of removed fat?) by adding sugar. If I want sugar in my coffee, I'll add it myself!

How can it be free of the thing it's made of? It's just wrong.

I've found two of my thermometers, one still lost. None are in the bathroom. One was on my bedside table, and one was in my purse. Why, self? Where were you going that you thought you'd need that? And where have you hidden the other one? Naturally, the one that's lost is the only one with a fresh battery; the others need batteries, but not the same kind, oh no! and not a kind I already have, so now I'm off to order batteries.

My temperature, in the middle of the day, is 97.9. It was 96.7 early this morning. So if it should go up to 98.6, I guess I'd have a fever?

I could never figure out fat free half and half

I think a fluctuation of a degree isn't notable, Zen.

Your body temperature is like mine, Zen. I feel like over 99 is notable, for me. I had no idea how much my temperature fluctuates seemingly at random until I started taking it at frequent and fairly random intervals, but 97.something is what feels "normal" for me

Ok so update on the uemployment. Supposedly they deposited money to my account yesterday but there's nothing pending and I don't have it in my account.

And I am supposed to be actively job seeking even though I thought because I was furloughed because of the pandemic I didn't have to but they are requiring it. I didn't register, I did , it asked me what date and it had to be in a range of dates so I lied and I kind of want to go back to work so I do not have to deal with this nonsense anymore.

Theo I hope that you stay safe

Also, I think my day is finally done? My coworker that I was working with to recap the conference call (that I did not cry during, it was actually fine once we got going as heavily as the prep for it was weighing on me) told me I deserve a drink, so there you go.
