I'm glad Zoe is okay.

I was supposed to have a meeting 20 minutes ago, but I'm guessing the office is not back from lunch, so I'm sitting here, twiddling my thumbs. This is one of those times when working remotely is not in my favor. I will just have to read more Go Fug Yourself.

I just had that discussion with myself on Monday, meara! Work is a drag but looking for work sucks even more, probably? Do not like.

I am feeling super overwhelmed at work right now and feeling very very avoidant. But also trying to keep in mind that like, if I quit my job I won't have any income.

Oh man, so much this.

I do have one thing that will end on Saturday, but that just means I'll be able to full-ass all the school work I've been half-assing so far this semester. Work remains the most annoying and lowest priority, but it pays for everything else, so.

Ugh, sorry meara, that's not a fun feeling.

Home with pup. She is still feeling lethargic, but I am much less worried. Cooking a bunch of chicken and rice to make her tasty food. I'll freeze a lot of it.

Having to work for a living is unfortunate. Most of the time I enjoy my work enough, but it being optional would be much nicer.

Gud, are things better this week on the job front? Settling in?

Here you go, Matt. It's called a bomb cyclone, which you have to admit is a pretty sweet name.

Crap, I am sniffling a whole lot. Last night I really went to town brushing all the loose fur off Spare Cat of which there was an abundance -- in fact, so much that I ended up changing into new pajamas before I went to bed lest I get more-than-the-usual-amount of cat hairs on my sheets and pillows.

I wonder now how much cat dander I managed to inhale. Mostly because I don't want this to be a cold.

Huh. Apparently Facebook is down, for me and a lot of other people.

Me too.

I wouldn't have noticed so much except I just started moderating the NYT's readers group and have been checking in there on a regular basis. Guess I can take that off the list of things to do today!
