did they ever hear of hurricane season?

That's part of that climate thing, which (as we all know) is totally made up by the climate-antifa alliance for those big environmental bucks. I'm sure they'll be fiiiiiiine.

I've been avoiding carbs, but I'll have to sit back with popcorn to watch the show if they do convene outdoors in August. Of course, the senators are bright enough not to attend, but there are plenty of delegates who will be there. I have to believe they will either come to their senses, or that they won't convince a venue to cooperate.

I'm back in the office today for the first time since...March? It's weird. The temperature check device is pretty neat. Had to hunt down my chair which had migrated to an otherwise empty cube that was full of chairs for some reason.Spent the first half hour/45 minutes I was here clearing off surfaces like we were asked to do at the beginning of returning so my desktop is very bare which always freaks me out a little. Oh, and we get two black masks with our company logo on them in blue. Weird but nice I guess?

Now I have to actually work, boo. Wouldn't you think physically being present should be enough that this point?

BTW, I make no effort to co-ordinate my masks, I wear whichever one I lay my hand on first and it's usually the Vog mask with flowers and hummingbirds (although the hummingbirds are mostly hidden by seams and the valve but I know they are there...) but I'm very curious about what other people do or think should be done.

Brain dump -

Texas cancelled the State Fair and Texas GOP cancelled the state Rep convention.

My parents' signed a contract on their home. It has been on the market since March. Lower than asking price, but more than the first low-ball offer, so given the current economic climate, we all feel good about it.

9:15 meeting at work, my only standing meeting was cancelled and no one told me. Whateves. I went to the office 2 days this week and did a ton of work, so everything in me wants to have a lazy day.

Tomorrow is first Farmer's Market in 2 weeks for me! (Quarantining after the TX trip). I am very excite and may buy all the berries that they have.

Ooh, it's air conditioned here, I forgot! Mmm, comfortable temperature.

For those following my work ac saga, it is a normal indoor temperature at work today! I actually put on my ac cardigan earlier when it was only 70!

That's gotta be a relief, flea! I would've lost my marbles long ago. How many days do you have left?

I am just glad it is Friday.

My son is now gainfully employed. Starts Monday at a warehouse job. We're off to get him drug tested now, which will be fine. Check one item off the list.

Huzzah for son employment!

I *think* I figured out how to forward calls from my extension to my cell phone. Ooh, and I think I just realized how to test that it's working. And now I'm filled with ambivalence about actually doing that....hmmm

Skipped and skimmed to get here

Yay employed son!

And ugh, David. This is terrible. I'm sorry.

they announced last night that they're adding two more paid holidays in July and August so employees can have a break without using PTO.

Funny, yesterday at work the PTB just announced that they're taking away the usual 2 extra off days they're giving to workers during July and August. But if that prevents layoffs, I'm for it.
