Msbelle, I really, really feel your pain. It is so similar to what happened to me except times thousands of people. And I was just so angry with everything and everyone. And I am sure the employees without work emails think will suddenly become an urgent issue that you will have to deal with.
I also hate UTIs.
I am busy at work trying to actually plan for some things that I know will be asked of me last minute in November and December. Hopefully this, and the fact that there is actually a plan for Covid vaccine collection for Spring that the University Registrar signed off on so I won’t be stuck in a 2 month feedback loop of “students need to provide a vaccine proof before they register to a system they don’t have access to until they register”.
But today we decorated pumpkins with coworkers I actually like! So that was fun.
What a shitshow, msbelle.

Good luck with that.
Ugh, bodies.
Jesse, you are right. I should prepare for that plan to go to shit as well, since in July I also had an approved plan that blew up in my face.
My happy today was the Indigo Girls. Someone on one of my true crime podcasts asked for Indigo Girls recommendations because she had never heard of them! And we were all like- um- all of it! So I blasted it from my office today.
Timelies all!
Am at the con(flight was over an hour late, probably because of the weather) listening to the Pegasus Nominees concert.

I didn't mean that to be snarky! I hope it works!
Whoops. But I think that I still need to be be prepared for a shitshow. As a former stage manager, I like being prepared for everything to go to shit, so I can solve it.
I am the queen of constructive pessimism. You can be happy it turned out well, or happy you were right and saved the day!
Feeling a bit more human today. My arm is still sore from the booster, but not so bad today that I shouldn't be able to swim. UTI is not as bad. I think just worn down from the overly busy week after the trip home. Unpacking, work overload, and so forth.
At least my weight loss progress is on track. Down 49 pounds and actually looking forward to seeing my PCP in a couple of weeks. Digits crossed that my labs next week aren't skewed from the diet. We shall see.
