What Shrift said. Honestly, whatever extra goods you got probably costs Target less than whatever it costs them to pay someone to take care of the refunding the refund for you.
Xander: How? What? How? Giles: Three excellent questions.

Thank god. I can finally sleep well at night.

"I'm useless alone." // "We're all useless alone. It's a good thing you're not alone."
augh meeting from 7:30 to 10AM on a Friday.
"Asshole" was first used to describe an unpleasant person during World War II
This is kind of amazing. I would have thought it originated much earlier, had I thought about it.

Because books.
I know it would be worse for you, but I was so hoping you would say "to 11:00."

HA. It would definitely not be good. I've already mentally checked out and am working on my yuletide signup. Fortunately, they record these meetings.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
I had pizza for lunch, and it was so delicious, but now I am so full and sleepy. I have to present to a small group at 1:30, but at least after that, it's just one-on-one meetings and sliding into the weekend.
I have so many fun plans this weekend, but really I just want to stay in the house for two days! Oh well.

Yay Tim on new job!
I hope Zen and meara are healing up ok.
I took the dog for a run in the woods, but it was kind of a crappy run because I stupidly took a benedryl last night before bed. I slept really well, no hot flashes, but benedryl always makes me slow the next morning. So annoying.
Anyway I am now doing laundry and catching up on The Good Place.

Ahaha -- there's a guy here who I haven't worked with directly, but heard my boss call "unpleasant," which she mostly attributed to poor social skills, not actually ill intent. I was just copied on an email thread with him, and his full response to being sent something for review was, "I will have comments but can't send them now." Yeaaaahhhh, people usually use a LOT more social niceties than that here.
