Natter 77: I miss my friends. I miss my enemies. I miss the people I talked to every day.

I'm pretty sure I have seen raw milk brie at either Trader Joe's or Whole Paycheck, and all I need is a good excuse to buy them...

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

Cannot brain today. Trying to work anyway because capitalism, I guess. Bah.

Apparently if you're enough of a power nerd, there is nothing that cannot be flowcharted.

Cannot brain today.

Same. (Kind of migrainey today.)

Same.

"There are few hours in life more agreeable than the hour dedicated to the ceremony known as afternoon tea."

I just sent emails to ltc's school library about volunteering there, an email to the library bookstore to see about resuming my volunteer work there, and an email about signing ltc up for swim lessons at her old school so she can continue to be comfortable with the water. So, a somewhat productive morning. I have to do some errands later today, but TCG is coming home for lunch so I'll do them after that.

Fistbump of solidarity in the face of blergh, Tep. I realized after I posted that probably I used up all my Behave Like a Human energy yesterday at the in person Sales Meeting with waaaaaay more people than I am used to seeing at one time yesterday. I even said to a co-worker that I'd need to come home and hide under the bed afterwards, which I pretty much did, but I need more recovery time, apparently. All masked and socially distanced and everyone was required to be vaccinated to attend, I do not feel worried about contagion, just that was a lot of people

If I want to become a cloud of bats, does each bat need a separate vaccination?

Oh god me neither / me too. For like the past year.

Friends don't let friends read "Atlas Shrugged"

Hit me too ... I was trying to write up notes from a Zoom call yesterday - 95 minutes! - and COULD NOT concentrate. It's one of those tasks I hate and am bad at (not sure which is the cause and which the effect), so I kept getting distracted, taking breaks, etc. There wasn't enough caffeine in the world to keep me focused.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

Back to fandom, I just tried to explain to my mother why the word portmanteau came to mind so easily for me.
