Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

Now I would like Thai food, but it is not on my food agenda! Hmmm.

I would also like a vacation, because the long weekend was very nice, and it would probably be good for me to have enough time off that I get bored of it, you know?

Jesse I miss going places and doing things, but taking Friday and today off was a great plan. I feel way more relaxed (though I still don't want to go to work tomorrow!)

Our wings are not tired

The short sighted payroll tax deferrals and rent/mortgage deferrals are such a disaster waiting to happen.

It's all smoke and mirrors. They know that it's going to destroy people when it all comes due, but it's all carefully planned so that it doesn't destroy them until after the election. I talked to my staff and we are all in agreement that we continue to pay the tay and don't take the deferral unless there is a mandate to do it.

smart move, ND.

They won't insist on it for private sector because, you know, sort of libertarian -- but of course they insist on it for federal employees/military. So bullshit.

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

Better late than never, Tom! Mmm, close by and convenient Thai food. I don't think I can make that happen today, but maybe soon...

I don't know what my company is doing re: payroll taxes, I imagine I'll find out on my next check but there hasn't been any kind of announcement one way or the other. Not gonna lie, if I have more take home pay I will probably use it to pay bills.

Also, could I get some interview/job~ma at 4PM EST? It's for a side gig that would be a great help in the next step in my career, so no tragedy if I don't get it, but would really like it.

"Look, son, if it's good enough for Shirley Bassey, it's good enough for you."

I've been trying to keep my favorite local Thai place afloat but they are definitely struggling.

From this morning I am officially a research student who is writing a thesis. I suspect it will take me a few days to process the news...

Congratulations! Though if we're noting OFFICIAL statuses, you have been Buffista Certified Awesome for some time.

Good job on the good new job, Gud!
