Oh no, David, I am so sorry.

David, that's so awful. This fucking year.

Oh, David, I'm sorry.

In my mind I am still a kid and I am really miffed that I am expected to work on a snow day. I am doing the very least. I am keeping with with emails and I got in my morning report. Somehow messing around online seems ok, but doing Christmas cards does not.

Same re: working on a snow day. And the messing around online would fly in the office in a way cards would not.

Jesse, my new office has little to no internet access for personal stuff. I have to do stuff on my phone LIKE AN ANIMAL!

One wonderful thing about having kids and moving to the suburbs is that I can give myself a snow day by saying I have to shovel and/or take the kids sledding. (Both of which I do genuinely have to do, but, you know, not ALL DAY...)

The next time I am looking to buy a house, would someone please remind me that my people left the Scottish Highlands yonks ago, and it is okay to buy a house on flat ground, with just a little flat driveway, that doesn't have huge retaining walls on either side?

Does anyone ever hear from Rio? I've been following this thing where Biden's incoming Deputy Chief of Staff called GOP lawmakers "fuckers" on account of how they are fuckers, and it makes me think of Rio and FUCKOS.

Oh Rubio is getting dragged in Twitter again for being all pearl clutching over the fuckers remark or "f***kers" as he censored it.

I am on my 2nd day off in a row. I have written some Christmas cards. Realized I need to get wrapping paper to finish wrapping my dad's present and get it to the UPS store to get it mailed out.

I have zero energy. I am sleepy. I slept ok but I'm just sleepy and tired and I know some of it has been all the walking I'm doing at work . But I also think I'm coming down with a sinus infection , maybe. Not sure but I have sinus pressure feeling but maybe it's just the weather change. I know someone at work was out a few days with a really bad sinus infection. I also keep feeling really sleepy. Yesterday I slept in and took a nap and today I slept in and I'm ready to take a nap now and maybe later.

Oh noooooo.

I'm sorry, David. That's a hard sort of limbo state to be in.

Taboo turned out to be one of the best mousers I've ever seen. She was very proud of herself.

As well she should be. My cat occasionally catches mice and voles when we're out on our walks. Considering there's a giant, loud human on the other end of his leash, I think that's a tad impressive. Anyway, we've never had mice in the apartment, either because they're caught and eaten before I notice them or because they smell a mouse killing predator and look for safer spaces.

Nicolle Wallace vague-tweeted all the pearl clutching last night. It made my heart grow three sizes.

Are we really talking about the f word in any context other than the f-ing people who stood by Trump as he boasted about “grabbing women in the pussy”, smeared “shit hole countries” called black NFL players “sons of bitches” and assaulted our democracy while ignoring covid?
