I'd say a nap is in order for sure. That's a lot.
I'm trying to dictate rather than type these days, because I'm pretty sure I've caused myself an arm issue. It's weird to dictate for me though. Although maybe there will be fewer typos?
Oh, smacked in the noggin with a 2x4 wrapped in velvet. Yeah, that's what it felt like.

Off-topic discussion. Wanna talk about corsets, duct tape, butt kicking, or physics? This is the place. Detailed discussion of any current-season TV must be whitefonted.

I remember the crazy days. 500 posts an hour. Nubmer! Natgbsb
I’m tired, but not as tired as Laura. Sheesh.
Oh New Orleans. Like the lower ninth needed anything else ever.
I’ve decided to start self testing every week for COVID. I feel really exposed with most people at work and elsewhere maskless now. We have boxes of self tests at work, so I might as well use them.
Today’s test has 5 more minutes to go, but all looks negative.

Wow, Laura. I wish you some rest, for sure.
That sounds like a good idea, msbelle

I'd do the same, msbelle.
(or miss bell as my microphone wanted to transcribe)

I'm off to a fine start. Came in a little early to be ready for my early meeting, got to the front door and couldn't find my badge. Called everyone in my department, the only one who answered was working from home. Luckily, someone happened to just come by and let me in. Then discovered I hadn't brought my water bottle in to work which always discombombulates me and THEN found my badge in my back pocket, so feel like an idiot. But I have my beloved Petite Breakfast Cheese to eat on newly discovered Brioche Toast which is delightful. Next up, that early meeting, yay

You've got friends to have good times with. When you need to share the trauma of a badly-written book with someone, that's when you go to family.
Laura, nap definitely later!
msbelle, I support you in this decision.

That's a nice thought! So, early meeting was to advise us that we are infact changing our organizational structure a little AGAIN - my current manager is going to focus on a particular part of her duties which does not include my team, they are basically going to promote one of us to supervisor which....I can't really object to, there's no reason not to, but I don't want to supervise and I don't want to be supervised by any of my co-workers BUT no one is laid off or positions being removed or anything so on the whole not too bad

That’s good, but I don’t understand why that meeting had to be so early or so lately announced, geez! But I am intrigued by this petite cheese mention….do tell.
I have a headache which is not (yet?) a migraine but I don’t want to do any work right now. I took painkiller and am hoping it works and I can be productive in an hour or so
