A ghost? What's the deal? Is every frat on this campus haunted? And if so, why do people keep coming to these parties, cause it's not the snacks.

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

I have zero respiratory distress. It seems more likely to be something I ate. But if it doesn't clear up by tomorrow I'll figure where to go for a test. I know there's on demand testing somewhere around here.

Our wings are not tired.

Yes please. It would be reassuring.

Kids close on their house tomorrow. And I made an appointment for the dog with the vet because he has a dermatitis issue on his neck and chin. So busy on top of Monday normal busy

OK, I have an appointment for testing on Tuesday at 4:30. I had to create an account with whoever is doing the state sponsored testing (going through Kaiser would have meant getting a referral which seemed like it would require more talking to people than I wanted to do) and they wanted a password that was 14-30 characters long! What the hell? Hopefully I won't actually have to remember that password...

Fandom means never having to say "But where would I wear that?"

Timelies all!

Not in a good mood right now. Last night, as we were putting Mr. S to bed, Gary's mom called. She wasn't feeling well, and wanted Gary to drive her to urgent care. After she had been seen, it was decided that Gary would stay at her house overnight, just in case.

Nova started scratching at the door and meowing at 5:15 this morning, which led toMr. S waking up very early. I'm rather tired now.

-t - I've given up on trying to remember passwords and use a password manager. Then all you have to do is remember the password to the PM, which has been an issue on occasion. But they can also generate a secure password for you based on a site's criteria, so that's nice. I use LastPass (the free version) but there are others out there worth checking into - [link] .

Thrive to spite them

-t I hope it's something really mundane going on.

Work was so .. tiring today. I wore the wrong thing, I realized it once I was there but nothing I could really do. (the ac is broken and while other parts of downstairs aren't hot, my section is hot with no real air flow) Well I could have found something and bought it and wore it but I can't find anything I want to buy to wear right now but I should have. I got super over heated and sweaty and luckily I had an early lunch. I got cooled dwon some but then got hot and sweaty again. And by the end of the day I was struggling. We have a huge corporate visit Wed and I was going to stay late to help get ready for it but I ducked out early. The guy, I don't remember his title, but he reports directly to the CEO and our store is the first one he is visiting now that they can visit stores again.

We are already impressing with our numbers and now we have to impress with how well teh store looks, or how well it can look despite some cosmetic problems (we need new carpet, pieces of tile are missing in spots etc)

Days shrink and grow cold, sunlight through leaves is my song. Winter is long.

We have thunder.

I think it's thunder. Who knows? This year, it could be Mt. Baker rumbling its way to eruption, I wouldn't be surprised.
