Off-topic discussion. Wanna talk about corsets, duct tape, butt kicking, or physics? This is the place. Detailed discussion of any current-season TV must be whitefonted.
Hmmm.... there is the snowshoes...
And in other news, our threatened email "upgrade" has happened. I can't find a fucking thing. I have to tell the thing I do indeed want to open the item I'm double-clicking to open yet it still doesn't download graphics.
Work from home Wednesday
Internet connection down
One bar on cell phone
At least I can get some laundry done
I'm sensing a laundry theme today.
Foggy morning in SF.
I'm venturing out the door wearing my Ouija Board cardigan and my tarot design scarf, so I'm full of magic and mysteries.
School finally reopened today! (On a 3-hour delay which means each class is about 15 minutes long, but at least A is OUT OF THE HOUSE.)
I thought it was my router or whatever but I finally got enough cell service to open the Xfinity app and got a notification that’s there’s network damage in the area, whatever that means. Well, relieved some of my guilt over not being able to do any work.
The cell service is Verizon and we’ve just always had pretty poor coverage here for whatever reason
Anyway, I had already downloaded the library book I’ve been listening to and occasionally can get through on Slack enough to cancel everything I planned to do today, so all good. Picking up A’s snow days, sort of
Got myself all packed up to go into the office tomorrow, called into a Zoom on my phone planning on bailing on the rest of the day, and the outage is fixed. Argh.
I deviated from my diet and had a whopping hot roast beef and melted munster sandwich.

Yay!
I had a full-body coughing fit yesterday that I'm still sore from this morning - blargh. OTOH I feel much better today so I guess it worked to expel whatever demon virus I was possessed by.
I've found, annoyingly, that going into the office part-time makes it near impossible for me to be productive on WFH days. When I was at home full time I was able to engage Work Brain at my desk, but now that I've adjusted to being in-office most days it's much harder to convince myself that home office is a Work Brain Place.
