Off-topic discussion. Wanna talk about corsets, duct tape, butt kicking, or physics? This is the place. Detailed discussion of any current-season TV must be whitefonted.
Marceline the Drama Queen is amusing me this morning
Glad to hear, Sheryl!
I hope you are continuing to feel better, Theo.
Hate how dark it is in the morning right now. I'm pretty sure it's worse in December, but knowing that the clocks could be set so it isn't quite so dark quite so late right now makes me very resentful.

Separate post: awww, ltc. Even if she's seen him once before, he's still practically brand-new. New people, especially totally unexpected ones like substitutes, are HARD.
Yup. This is the first time having a substitute at her current school, and the teacher's aide for the classroom is out with an injury. I'm glad it was a planned day off and her teacher was able to prepare them yesterday.
I want to note that today seems to be an overlap of seasons, at least at Starbucks, where you can get pumpkin spice lattes and peppermint mochas. But not, it appears, my personal favorite gingerbread. Alas.
Dunkin' also, pumpkin and peppermint but no sign of gingerbread.
Latest word from a couple of sources is that we expect to be back up, to some extent at least, by Monday but they are careful to say that that is not based on anything definite so who knows. Also we are hiring a new director who will be taking over at least some of my boss's job (she is also a director) and I don't know what to make of that. Except I am annoyed that we can apparently hire directors but we are supposed to make do with our staffing levels down here at the analyst/planner level. Our org chart is such a mess. I'm sure the people who make the decisions about how it should look don't think so, but I sure do.
Is it peppermint hot chocolate season yet?

Timelies all!
Forgot to put on earrings this morning. Nearly forgot my ID badge at work. (Turned around before I left campus) In between was a lot of work.
TGIF Peeps! Looking forward to my favorite day of the year when I get an extra hour sleep, although I would happily give it up to never have this ridiculous time change bullshit in the future.
Everybody's groggy and gronky and stumbling around on a Friday morning at Chez Zmayhem.
After the time switch, it's going to be very dark still in the morning for Matilda to take the bus to school, and the stop is several blocks away. Not loving sending her out into city streets in the dark.
I need to remember Veteran's Day is next week and we have a random school day off on Thursday.
What else do I need to remember?
Daylight Savings Time switch
Veteran's Day
Order a Turkey...
I have some Onerous stuff to do today, and I need you guys to nag me about it.
