Boo Joe Rogan.

Also boo my company telling one group of people one thing (“these type of issues should be documented and immediately closed and followed up elsewhere”) but not explaining that to the other group of people (who are like “wait why are you not following up right here??”) ugh.

I still have not decided if I want knives (does getting those as a gift from my company mean I’ll sever my relationship with them soon??) pots and pans, or the pressure washer. I need new pots and pans, the knives would be useful and not take up much space, and the pressure washer would be fun but only for a day or two??

does getting those as a gift from my company mean I’ll sever my relationship with them soon??

Ha! I only ever was superstitious about knives as wedding gifts, and I got over that after people I liked gave me some very nice ones as wedding gifts. I vote take the knives. I could make my employee discount available to you for some pots and pans once the process for that is fixed...

Ooh, I would take you up on that, t! My pots and pans are definitely getting grungy and old and I should also buy a better caliber of them too. Since I probably won’t be having a wedding and asking for them.

Looks like a pressure washer is like $40 to rent for a day? So I may convince some friends we should do that and do both our places!

My sister gave me steak knives in my flatware pattern for Christmas, and she's still speaking to me, so you'd probably be fine, meara.

I feel like renting is the way to go with power washers in general

I can get you a good deal, meara, but not right now because it's not moved to the cloud since the cyberattack. I'll try to remember to let you know when it's available again!

Sounds good—it’s a “I should do that at some point in the coming months” rather than “oh shit need them now”

I do want a set of steak knives. Other than that, my chef's knife, paring knife, and serated Ginsu (yes, from TV - a friend and I bought a buy one get one pair!) have been serving me really well.

I have one of these burst blood vessels in the eye, which are generally harmless but look horrendous. I keep forgetting and then shrinking back when I look in a mirror.

Another day, another round of being disappointed by someone who should know better posting support for fucking Joe Rogan.

I'm torn between wanting to know who it is so I don't step in the guacamole inadvertantly and letting my ignorance ride so that the disappointment is a problem for Future Me.

No one you know. It just really ruined my mood for the day.

Disappointment will do that, like a moldy berry that ruins the whole pint.
