I think I should just get a raise for having cute hair

You should totally get a cute hair raise!

Thrive to spite them

YAY for your recovery Laura!

I miss casual conversations.

"I'm useless alone." // "We're all useless alone. It's a good thing you're not alone."

but with less enthusiasm for zoom calls.

Our annual HOA meeting was last night, and five minutes in I wanted to murder everyone who is not past "Wait, I think she's on mute. Are you on mute, Judy?" "Sorry, I was on mute!" "Just click Slide Show. On the top. No, over to the right."

Anyway, good news is that despite the covid exposure last week, I tested negative on Monday.

I am a woman of various inclinations and only some of the time are they to burn everything down in frustration

Yay negative!

as a person who doesn't want to write my self-evaluation I think I should just get a raise for having cute hair and not have to talk about it.

Let's normalize this. Although my hair is not cute lately - I haven't had a haircut since before COVID had a name and am just wearing a knit hat all the time at this point. It's a pretty cute hat.

If I want to become a cloud of bats, does each bat need a separate vaccination?

CUTE HAT RAISES FOR ALL.

Unusually and exceedingly peculiar and altogether quite impossible to describe

And my beanie.

I’d be lying if I didn’t say that I miss them all tonight…

And my pompom! (Or whatever the bobble on the top of the hat is called)

My sword is, btw, mostly for balancing on my head. Possibly on a hat.

Friends don't let friends read "Atlas Shrugged"

Last Friday, I went to get my hair cut (the salon requires masks, hand sanitizer and minimal contact; the stylist and shampoo lady wear gloves). Before going to the salon, I had the woman at the dry cleaner's ask me what hair dye I use ... and I had to tell her it's just how my hair grows. Then, at the salon, the ladies admired my nail polish. So ... compliments!

I'm getting a bonus from the job ... mostly because I've been coming in to the office, keeping it going, depositing all the checks and sending invoices (as scanned PDFs) to the appropriate people, taking care of phone calls, etc. So, not a raise, but income is well under budget so I'm glad of it.
