Well, it's just good to know that when the chips are down and things look grim you'll feed off the girl who loves you to save your own ass!

All sorrows can be borne if you put them into a story. Tell me a story.

I've already used 3 days of sick time.

And as you are still sick you should probably take more.

My accomplishments so far today have been to get two trolls removed from a neighborhood FB group. Troll profiles are bizarre.

What is even happening?

[Edit: Oh, I should've known I couldn't keep myself in just the one post, ha?]

Nilly, it's how we now we're getting an authentic Nilly post.

It's lovely to see you here again. G'mar tov.

Most likely.

Nilly! Always good to see your pixels!

Our wings are not tired.

I think my teeth will be ground away to nothing before December. I even made the mistake of watching Rachel Maddow the last couple nights and between the CDC crap and the Electoral College shenanigans I may not sleep soundly again.

I was exhausted after getting up at 5AM to take DH to the airport. He still didn't finish stuff that needs to be done to my son's car so I let him take my car to work today. I could have taken him, but it is 80 miles round trip, and then I would have to pick him up again at 11 and not be home until midnight. Can't do it. Too tired. My sister offered to do the pickup since she is a night owl, but he is a safe driver and the route is basically rural farmlands with nothing but deer to present issues.

So tired.

Good news & bad news. Good is that we have an appointment to see an ideal apartment for son tomorrow. Getting a place has been challenging, but this sounds hopeful. Bad news is that DH had severe head pain when the plane was landing so his doctor is making him come in this afternoon. I think sinus infection, but doctor wants to check BP and other stuff too. He is at a record high weight so he is in for a record level of lecture from our doc.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

Fingers crossed, Laura.

I continue to try to make my own fun. I decided I want new glasses, so I went window shopping online, and then realized that basically what I want is my old glasses, and my prescription hasn't changed, so I'm just wearing my old glasses again.

So therefore I finally ordered a roomba.

(What? I saved so much money on glasses!!!)

I love my not a roomba but some other variety of robotic vacuum. I just sit and watch it do my least favorite chore.

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

Yay old glasses and new roomba! Hope your DH is ok, Laura.

I feel like coming back to work was a terrible mistake. Except for the getting a paycheck part, which I do need. But three days of work feels like it might actually kill me by sheer weight of stress.
