Shrift, I would give you some allergy meds (I feel like I have them ALL), except I'm over here.
Jayne (Husband): Oh, I think you might wanna reconsider that last part. See, I married me a powerful ugly creature. Mal (Wife): How can you say that? How can you shame me in front of new people? Jayne (Husband): If I could make you purtier, I would. Mal (Wife): You are not the man I met a year ago.

Oh no, shrift! I hate when that happens. Which is like every time I go to the store for one must have thing.

I have a ton of other allergy meds in my medicine cabinet, just not the ones I take daily. My current plan is run to the store early tomorrow before my meetings start, and starchy, potato-based comfort foods shall be my reward.

I tried ordering for grocery pickup but literally half my order was "out of stock". I suspect if I go into the grocery store I'll be able to find them though. Oy.

All sorrows can be borne if you put them into a story. Tell me a story.
I do feel my bile rise every time they cut to Kavanaugh.
I mentally overlay a thought bubble that says "I like beer" every time I see him.
I couldn't get to sleep until 4ish, then I was awakened by cat puking around 6ish and again by a jackhammer at 8. I did watch all the way up to the Biden family entering the WH but I spent the rest of the afternoon napping to fend off a migraine. I've at least kept it from getting worse. If you see me puttering around the internets late tonight, give me a nudge to go to bed. I suspect tomorrow will have a soundtrack of heavy machinery and back up beeps like today has.

I just got a call from the store I ordered from most recently -- they're calling all the customers who've picked up in the last few days in search of a scanner that went missing in, presumably, one of our trunks. I said I'd check the next time I was down at the car but that my trunk is pretty empty, so I probably would've noticed. Poor person who was last responsible for the scanner.
I ordered from Nando's.

So exhausted y’all, but so glad to be on the other side of this. I’m not even sure how to unclench my shoulders anymore but I’m working on it.

Oooh. Now there's an idea.
