I have found neither pangram today, brain is not with me on that.

Hear me out: hot chocolate and tequila. If you like chocolate oranges or other chocolate-citrus combos, you might like this.

Hm. I do like chocolate and orange. Would require buying tequila and that seems like a whole complicated thing, getting a good one when I am not really partial to it. But might be doable.

2 days in a row of kind of obscure pangrams

I generally add kahlua to my hot chocolate.

All sorrows can be borne if you put them into a story. Tell me a story.
Connections: I was pretty sure that the blue answers would be purple.
Right? I really thought I was getting purple first. I did get both pangrams off the top and made it to QB during morning coffee. Wordle took 5 tries though.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
While you people were talking about delicious boozy hot chocolate, I was making Swiss Miss in the office. Sad.

I'm in my office, listening to the Fezziwig party, drinking hot water.

Frustrating day today.
Tried to do the annual enrollment thing for health insurance and so on, but the network refused to recognize that I was logged on.
Student came to class wearing a mask. I asked if she was feeling OK, and she said, "Yeah, I tested positive for Covid on Monday, but I met all the requirements to come back to class." So, I put on my N95.
I had to send out exams for high school students taking my online calculus class. I email the exams to teachers at their schools, and those teachers print them out, supervise the students taking them, and then scan them and send them back to me. I can't just send the same exam file to each one, because we use a system where each exam had QR codes on it, so I needed to be careful to send the right exam to each person, and to make sure not to send the same file to two different people. It took me a while to get the individual emails put together and the files attached and to double-check that I'd matched up the names and the files correctly. And then one of the teachers emailed me to say that she couldn't open the attachment. I checked, and none of the files had downloaded to my computer correctly, which meant that none of the attachments were right, and I had to redo the entire thing, after downloading each individual file (I'd done it as a batch before, which apparently you can't do.)
