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.
Mal: Then I call it a win. What's the problem? Inara: Should I start with the part where you're stranded in the middle of nowhere, or the part where you have no clothes?

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

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

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.

Looks like I'm going back to Puerto Rico at the end of October. I'm just doing the Covid hot spot tango. Northern Ireland at the beginning of October and then Puerto Rico at the end. All of those are Level 4 locations according to the CDC.

Nothing since 645 last night? Where is everyone? Was the east coast raptured?

Where is everyone?
I've only had one coffee! I can't be expected to type.
But Second Coffee comes after I run, and...that requires a fair amount of effort. Yet I will do it because....coffee.

I am just thankful that so far today I am not dealing with any new identity theft (….so far) and that I don’t have a headache. I got no work done Tuesday because of the identity theft stuff (being on the phone, going in to the bank) and other appointments, and then I had a headache pretty much from Tuesday night until now, and spent most of yesterday sleeping. So I’m hoping to get work done but also like, dishes and laundry.
