I saw someone on Twitter claiming that Southwest isn't affected because they still use Windows 3.1, and I can't tell if that's a joke.

Ugh. I bought several Hanes cooling t shirts. They had good reviews and recommendations and for awhile they did what they were supposed to. The fabric gets cold

But today it just was holding in the heat and I had to be in the back room longer than normal and so I got really hot. And sweaty. I thought I had cooled down ok I even changed shirts (there was a clean one in my car I've been meaning to take inside) and I started getting brain foggy. I did finally stop for lunch.

It's not the hottest day it's been but it's very humid. Lunch as been some chicken salad, celery sticks, yogurt, watermelon (maybe I might save it for a snack) and I got a electrolyte drink mix that I mixed with electrolyte water . I am feeling a little better.

Asking for -ma for my mom's friend's grandson...it's a saga, apparently, and not mine to post anyway, but thought I'd ask for a good thought for Branden, anyway.

I have so much work to do, and my motivation to be doing it is...not great.

I'm going on vacation in two hours and people keep wanting me to do my job, which just seems mean of them.

My computer started working again. I think my east coast colleagues had given up for the day (fair!) but I feel like I probably have to do some work this afternoon. Boooooo

Much ~ma for Branden, erikaj.

I was supposed to be flying up to see my niece’s family, and that didn’t happen. They were able to get me on a flight for tomorrow, so that’s nice. As I was waiting in the support queue for ~4 hours this morning (on my phone, while slounging on my sofa) I was extremely grateful that I wasn’t working a Delta customer service desk today.

My flight is allegedly still happening today, which is an improvement on this time yesterday. If it doesn’t go, well, I can spend the rest of the long weekend at home with the cats, which isn’t bad, as worst case scenarios go. I still hope I can see my grandnibblings tho.

I have worn the Loop Quiet 2 , still not sure I have the fit right on the ear piece. But the verdict is ...it doesn't block out as much noise as I would like but it does a good job of blocking out all the annoying little noises. I can still hear people talk but at work it blocked out the speakers the background voices and the beepinga and someone's phone playing video. So it made my break a lot better.

Good luck, Calli! I hope Aimee is safely arriving in AUS after her 7 hour layover.

ETA: Per her FB post, Aimee Star is still in the air although approaching Australia now.

So it made my break a lot better.

Sounds like a good investment then.

I got out of the house before 8 to do my run. I've been slack this week but Matilda has been busy cleaning her room ("I want to get my shit together," she declared) and I'm catching productivity vibes from her.
