My dog, is there anything more mind numbingly burning on a Monday morning than a backlog of required IT security videos???
I like books. I just don't want to take on too much. Do they have an introduction to the modern blurb?

Woke up to the strong smell of smoke, though nothing was smoky throughout the house. Ran around checking, including the cellar! Stepped outside, could smell it strongly though no sirens or ominous smoke or firelight on the horizon.
Checked social media -- grass fires comfortably far off.
Still not a great start to the day.

Yikes that would be a scary way to wake up!! I recently saw a video about how a lot of fires start from bathroom fans that are full of dust and now I’m paranoid but not enough so that I’ve actually figured out how to, say, clean the fans.
I accomplished nothing this weekend. Which was nice but also I really should’ve done one or two things other than laundry and sitting on the couch watching TikTok or reading. Go for a run, or errands or cooking. Kicking myself a bit, because this is a rather busy week and I wish I’d set myself up better.
Happy birthday Aurelia!

Happy aurelia day!
Ugh on Monday backlog of security videos. Fie on that! We hates them, precious.
Yikes, Theo, waking up smelling smoke is never fun!

Waking up to the smell of fire sounds very unpleasant.
Happy birthday, aurelia!
Matilda was up by 9:30 this morning! She's getting better.
Which is good because she has an interview with the Japan program coordinator tomorrow, and I'd like her to be coherent.
I just sent her a slew of Kyoto travel videos to give her something to talk about.
I have my second Therapy session today. I don't think I'm going to keep this therapist but I'll do this session and see.

Hippo birdies, Aurelia!
I'll tell you that it makes me a lot more sympathetic to people who've been through real wildfires.
