I accidentally took myself out for brunch. I meant to get pho and lemonade for lunch, but that places was closed, and the second place had a long line so I ended up at a place with mimosas included but I did not expect them to bring me FIVE. So that was followed by a nap.
Natter 77: I miss my friends. I miss my enemies. I miss the people I talked to every day.
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.

Ha! Party girl.
Teams is just terrible Slack. Dischord I have no reason to understand.
I am not a Crackpot (TM Sarah D. Bunting) What I don’t understand is that our school (within the University) mandated that we all be logged on to Zoom all day and be available for chat (which no one does). But our IT department and Registrar department (which work across schools) were already using Teams. SO now I have to have both on as well as monitoring my own email and three group emails, just in case someone has an urgent request. I was never not responsive to email so this just seems inefficient and distracting. Please just email or call.
The funniest part of this “mandate” is that it happened AFTER quarantine because some teams found it helpful. My team tried Zoom chat in April of 2020 and everyone hated it except me and just kept texting me anyway. Also there are only 2 staff members on my immediate team (and like 9 faculty members) and the faculty members do not have to use either if they don’t want to- and none of them do!
Who wants to see the wallpaper we're putting up on one wall in our bedroom?

Oooh, love that wallpaper!
Oooh, love that wallpaper!
The rest of the room will be painted in those blues and greens.
Mmm, liking the decor choices!
Ooh, nice.

So soothing!
