I'm just waiting to see if I pass out. Long story.

I'm terrifically busy with my ennui.

Jesus christ. Sorry for the stress, Jess.

Our wings are not tired.

Ugh, I'm sorry Jessica.

JFC, Jess! Not cool, universe.

But other than that, happy birthday

We are resuming shipping today, woohoo! Which is to say, I was provided an official letter to send out which says so. If that means we are shipping now or just we had better be by the end of the day or heads will roll I'm not sure. I don't have access to anything yet so I can't answer my customer's questions either. But it's progress!

Unusually and exceedingly peculiar and altogether quite impossible to describe

Jess, (1) Happy Birthday, and (2) ack, what the hell?

I feel weirdly betrayed by Tik Tok - since I'm not actually on it I only see what people share or refer to and it has all been neutral to good but I guess there are terrible people on all platforms

"Look, son, if it's good enough for Shirley Bassey, it's good enough for you."

So it's been a bit of a mixed birthday so far.

But not as bad as your honeymoon.

And then Ortus came and said "It's Ortin' time" and they all Orted off into the sunset

But not as bad as your honeymoon.

That's a pretty low bar!

I'm in an Open Enrollment Zoom and it is killing me. So much talking about shit that does not concern me at all. I will need to decide if I want to stay with Kaiser or switch to a new "EPO" plan - I'm leaning towards staying because all my records are there and starting fresh with a new network seems like it would be a pain. I'm still in this spot of trying really hard not to use my health benefits so the difference in costs or copays or whatever doesn't matter much to me. I am concerned about looming strikes at Kaiser but I doubt a different network would really be better about labor relations.
