Vortex that is bizarro. Like yeah, it’s been 20 years, your epiphany is a little overdue?
I went on a hike with my friend and her gf this afternoon—it was not great as we didn’t communicate ahead of time enough what “a short hike not too hard” meant to each of us….it all worked out in the end but there was definitely 15 minutes or so where I was ready to murder her. Later we hit up the Korean spa. And then her gf got mad at her and stormed off and sent multiple texts and a voice message….and so friend and I watched a movie for a bit and when I came back to my room to go to bed discovered the gf has left me a 5 minute long voice message. Ummmmmm…..
Oh dear, meara.
We celebrated my mom's birthday yesterday. Today we're going over to my sister's to celebrate my niece's birthday, as she hasn't had a fever in days and she's allowed to go back to school on Tuesday. I'll still be wearing a mask since I'm getting on a plane in a couple of days.
I'm trying to focus my energy on encouraging COVID testing and handing out K-N95 masks like Halloween candy, since I can't control the behavior of the adults currently around me.
Ugh, shrift. I am sorry it has been such a fraught visit.
Also, Teppy - was there an announcement? Are they getting married/pregnant? I feel like you set us up for NEWS.
Nothing, dang it! The biggest news was that nephew made 2 turkeys.
FYI - apparently Howling Time (Not This Time x Werewolf) may be a classy enough colt to make it to the Derby. If so: Buffista Derby Pick?
He is pretty - even if he didn’t earn any points yesterday.
Random: in the next race - (watching NYRA on delay) there is a horse named Gringotts by Central Banker & one called Effiemeister by Bodemeister x Effie Trinket. The favorite in the last race was named Kissing Frogs, alas, she came in second.
Effiemeister is an excellent horse name.
Timelies all!
Normal Sunday here. I'm doing laundry and watching Legends of Tomorrow while Gary has brought Mr. S over to his mom's for a playdate.
Timelies! I just caught up on the last 2 weeks of Natter. Please know that appropriate sympathies and vibes were expressed as I read.
My Thanksgiving was a quiet day away from A Christmas Carol tech (opening is tonight) just like in the before times. I read a book while the cats took turns on my lap and then made a sweet potato, carrot, red lentil soup and an apple crisp.
Tomorrow is a focus and then into tech for the next show.
Two turkeys sounds good.
Shrift stay safe.
Mom called and I got snippy at her. Pretty sure it's the concussion. I have an appointment on Tuesday with a GP. M will drive me. Mom asked me a bunch of questions I don't have answers to. Like about workers comp. I guess they were closed all week so I have heard nothing from them. I don't know if I'll get paid or how that works.
Or when I'll go back to work. Or what the dr will suggest. Mom "what do you think the dr will say?" I don't know. I've never had thos before .
I did think to text my manager and let her know about my Dr's appointment. She asked if was scheduled off tomorrow. I told her no but the Dr's note covered me until Tues, which I have off.
I'm just bored and irritated and frustrated with a lack of information. I forgot to take the last dose of medicine and yeah I do need it .
I swear I'm not using screens that much .
I tried listening to podcasts or audio books but I don't like podcasts and I only really like audio books if I'm doing something else. I can't explain the podcast thing but I never liked talk radio either.
