Pretty cool except for the part where I was really terrified and now my knees are all dizzy.

Still testing positive on a rapid test. The chance that I'm still contagious is almost nothing, and antigen tests don't test for that, but I would really like to just put that part behind me.

I must obey the inscrutable exhortations of my soul—Calvin and Hobbs

I have redirected him to Google Albums rather than having my phone go off unceasingly with notification of Yet Another Photo.

I'm loving my Nixplay frame. Various family members share their Google Albums with me, and they all play in the frame. Every now and then I look over and there's a new photo of a great nibling that I've never seen before. I can go into the folders in Google Photos if I want to just see the latest, but the whole random pic that I can see on my own schedule is delightful.

I remember the crazy days. 500 posts an hour. Nubmer! Natgbsb

Scene am in the in the office, your heroine is on day 3 of nasty nasty mood and is not through her coffee yet.

Heroine (H) on phone - yes, to get that replaced you need to enter that a replacement is need on the (internal interface thingy) system.

Boss hovering

H - hangs up

Boss - they should just be able to email with the code info and get a replacement.

H - I was trained that a (system) request is needed, so I wanted to instruct her to use the system.

Boss annoyed - (addressing me by name) I think they can send an email with the code. Check with (acting chief of the division that does replacements).

H - ok. (Makes faces as soon as boss is in office)

H email acting chief. IS CORRECT THAT SYSYEM REQUEST IS NEEDED. Tries to let boss know without sounding smug.

Boss is stressed and has been hovering A LOT this week which is really not her normal behavior.

Just a bad combo when my default this week is “cut a bitch”.

Also she is not normally in on Friday, so both of us are annoyed that she is in.

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

Ugh, msbelle

Different ugh, Dana

Rode my bike almost to the gym and back, I just need to cross the highway and a parking lot to get there which I would probably actually walk most of not all of, and I was able to get my new basket to fit so I can carry stuff like a towel. All according to plan and ahead of schedule.

WFH today but not in a mood to work at all, so we’ll just see how that goes, I guess.

Calli, that sounds really cool!

Fandom means never having to say "But where would I wear that?"

Timelies all!

Tired, as usual.

Still testing negative from last weekends festivities but also hearing about a couple more positives every day, so…eek? Not sure at what point I can uncross my fingers. But this week I stayed home and didn’t do much besides sit on the couch—next week I have like five different appointments, so need to be healthy! (Botox for jaw, regular doctor visit, plumber, car, something else I’m forgetting…)

Quiet round these parts! Went to a basketball game tonight (WNBA). We lost, which was a bummer, but I had fun and saw friends. And am already in bed pre 10pm. Wild times around these parts.

Hope everyone else is having a good weekend start!

Our wings are not tired.

Skipped to the end to wish Dana a very happy birthday! I'm so sorry it has been an isolated one. Many wishes for a negative test so that you can celebrate more appropriately.

Arrived at Otter Lake. So much to do. Will catch up later.

"I remember when they eventually introduced that drug kingpin who murdered people and smuggled drugs inside snakes and I was like 'Finally. A normal person.'” —RahvinDragand

Happy Birthday Dana!

The farmers' market is giving me no love on tomatoes this year (though it did have fresh salad greens and fig jam today), so I stopped at a roadside stand and bought 3 giant ones. Also picked what I believe are some primroses in a vacant lot and put them in a cake can vase.
