Oh, Epic and Toddson: please be kind to yourselves, and may your bodies bounce back quickly. Sheryl, I hope you recover quickly.
Hec, that rug is stunning. So lovely. I'm really enjoying your very intentional decoration/design stories. My house is a potpourri of Ikea, old family pieces, and grad-school-era leftovers.
I've heard so many Covid stories lately: this thing ain't going away. I'm just about the only person still masking in my office.
Speaking of work: I have 4-6 hours of meetings most Tuesdays and Wednesdays. It's fucking exhausting, and I can't get any actual work done those days. Today was fab: I was home, in my sweatpants, with no meetings, and I actually got a few things checked off my to-do list. And they gave us 2 hours off for the holiday weekend, yay.
Going to bed soon: I have to be up at the crack of dawn to take the dog to the Central Valley for what is likely to be her final agility trial: she's 9 and we are not actually getting better at this. So I'm probably going to retire her soon. Anyway it's going to be cold and rainy and I'm not really looking forward to it...
Today is a day to make some noise! It is our very own NoiseDesign's birthday! I hope you are having a wonderful day and that the year to come is filled with joy and love.
Lots and lots of health~ma to Epic and Toddson both. I hope things go as smoothly as possible for both of you.
Happy birthday Drew!
Epic, hoping all the next steps go well for you.
Happy Birthday Drew!
I did not, in fact, go to the Central Valley, and instead slept in and took the dog for a run in the rainy redwoods. I haven't gotten that soaked since Kilimanjaro, I suspect, but at least I was able to come home and get a warm shower. I should probably go do things but instead I'm crashed on the futon with a slightly damp but very warm GSD, and many tabs full of fanfiction...
Happy Birthday Drew!
Much health ~ma to Epic, and continued health ~ma to Toddson.
I have had such a social weekend so far! I went to coffee with a work colleague/budding new friend. Then to lunch with my family. Tomorrow is Easter with Maria.
So weird after basically doing 3 total things since March 2020.
Happy Birthday Drew!
Epic, here's hoping your treatment process will go smoothly.
We had a surprise tornado last night, though the worst I've heard so far is some overturned cars in the next county. The restaurants beneath me packed about 150 staff and guests into a tiny basement for the duration.
Happy birthday, Drew! You're such a boon to this entire community.
I have made a mess of my taxes the last two years. Last year I was not holding state from paycheck (was never given the form, to fill out). This year I took out investments to buy mac a car and have capital gains to pay on that. fuck.
