Yeah, stitches are super weird that way. That freaked me out with a wrist injury after a motorcycle spill. Creepy to have them some out that way.
NOW I DON'T KNOW WHERE IT IS
You clearly terrified it and it ran far far away.

Congratulations on not setting the shuttle on fire.
Thank you. It was my greatest accomplishment this week.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
My department had our holiday breakfast this morning, so now I'm both too full to do anything and slightly over caffeinated.

We are going out for our department thing in a couple of hours. Breakfast and a movie - I think we are seeing Instant Family which I am not looking forward to but what can you do. I looked at the menu for the restaurant last night and they apparently have Gingerbread Pancakes so I AM looking forward to that.

I'm terrifically busy with my ennui.
So now I feel bad about being irritated by my coworker, who was supposed to log back on last night. She sent me a text I didn't see that she had something going on at home that she had to deal with, and she hasn't been online today, and my manager isn't answering my chat asking if she has a second to chat. I hope it's just some kind of non-serious drama.

My boss, who adopted three kids out of foster care, said it was really realistic, for whatever that's worth.

And just like that, my coworker appears.

I'm just generally not interested in nuclear-family-centric narratives. But I am interested in popcorn, and I can always take a nap in the theater.

"Look, son, if it's good enough for Shirley Bassey, it's good enough for you."
So, I had some unsettling weirdness happen last night.
The contractor was working at our house all day installing a new back door off my nerdhole.
He had the new door up (but not complete with hardware or lock) by the time he left.
So I'm sitting at my computer at 10pm, pitch black out, and suddenly a flash of light is shooting in through the window. Then another. And I look outside and there's an old guy on my porch.
At first I think it's the contractor who came back because he forgot something.
But it wasn't. The guy approaches the window and speaking through it announces he's [name of ex-husband of my landlady] who I haven't seen for 20 years!
He's taking pictures of the work done. At 10pm. In the dark. On my back porch. Creepy as fuck. Sketchy as hell.
Now he's been out of the picture for a long time, but my landlady has been handing over duties to her son. So....maybe he's bringing his dad back into it. I don't know.
But you know what? You don't want a face looming up at your window out of the dark on your back porch at 10 o'clock at night. You do not want that.
