Natter 76: Life, Liberty, and the Pursuit of Foaminess
Off-topic discussion. Wanna talk about corsets, duct tape, butt kicking, or physics? This is the place. Detailed discussion of any current-season TV must be whitefonted.
I just started watching the new Queer Eye this weekend!
I had a very short to-do list for the weekend, and did none of it! It's all stuff I could do any day, really, so we'll see how this week goes.
Today I have meetings at 10, 11, 11:15, 11:45, 12, 1, 2, and 3. That will be fun.

I think...it won't be, actually?
Oh yay, the noon meeting is being rescheduled. Now it will actually be fine.
I am so happy that I have only one standing meeting each week. I am actually shocked that my direct boss has not requested a weekly one on one, but she has not, so I am not going to mention it.
Yeah the house work can be done any day, so who cares when I do it.
In work breaks today:
- set up zelle and pay gate/garage door guy
- find empty plastic tub for winter stuff
- load of laundry
If I get that done and my work than I'll start on other things.
I'm attempting to show ltc the CNN/Sesame Street town hall on racism. It's very talky and a little over her head at this age.
That is still a lot of meetings, Jesse. I have one today that is just a presentation i passively receive and I kinda resent it.
Feel much better today, but I plan on getting tested tomorrow regardless since I have the appointment.
My niece told me I really must watch Queer Eye because it is awesome. I was so surprised! I thought such a thing was not in the wheelhouse for someone with so much religion. I'm gonna catch an episode so I can ask her about it.
Speaking as both a manager and manager, I highly recommend a weekly or bi-weekly one on one with your manager.
My meeting schedule tends to be like Jesse's. I don't have a ton of dual or triple booked today but I have them booked solidly from 1230 - 530 today. Better go make my lunch now!
I spent this weekend playing Animal Crossing, watching Queer Eye, and cooking. I made asparagus bacon and goat cheese omelettes, baked rigatoni, a batch of Thai green curry chicken, brownies, and a big batch of breakfast burritos.
The brownies turned out much better than my previous attempt and I ate them warm with vanilla ice cream.
I should have peaches coming today, so peach cobbler is in my future.
...and I missed the presentation. Oh well.
I have a monthly one on one with my manager, which seems fine. I can drop in on her (or call her, these days) any time as needed; having the one scheduled meeting on the calendar regardless is a good thing, though, as we both get busy and forget to touch base otherwise
