We could be a whole cadaver bone army.
Yessss.
I'd rather stay home and watch television. It's often funnier than killing stuff.

Unusually and exceedingly peculiar and altogether quite impossible to describe

I have too much to do in the next five days, and I'm trying not to have a total meltdown about it.

That's hard, sj, I'm sorry. And I know it's hard around the holidays to say no to stuff or delegate, because... holiday expectations and traditions.
The Cadaver Bone Army has your virtual back, though.

I am bad at delegating because nobody does things right or they ask me so many questions that I'd rather just do it myself, which I realize are me problems. But I did delegate a bit this year. I'm updating my mailing labels right now, and then I have to go open the wall of boxes.

I am a woman of various inclinations and only some of the time are they to burn everything down in frustration
I finally got my COVID booster yesterday - it should have been easy to get, it's just walk in but only during business hours and actually going somewhere to do the thing is not exactly a strength of mine so I kept just not doing it. Anyway, no side effects this time to the point where I forgot I had done that until I move my arm a particular way that I guess I don't do very often and it hurts like anything and I have to think about h ow I might have hurt myself for, like, a minute or two before I remember that I got a shot. Maybe next time I make that movement I will remember faster.

The more I learn, the more I realize how little I know.
What, no souvenir Band-Aid® ?

I did get a bandaid but it's under a sleeve so I forget it's there
Co-worker brought his dog in for the first time today. Dog is currently asleep under coworkers desk snoring loudly! It's pretty cute but also sounds like a human snoring, I had to go look and confirm it was a dog I was hearing...

If I want to become a cloud of bats, does each bat need a separate vaccination?
I am down to my last 5 peer reviews for the year but these are all folks I have no strong feelings about so it's taking forever because unfortunately I can't submit 5 copies of "So and so did their job, I guess. It was fine. Next year they should keep doing that." At this rate I'll probably wind up finally getting around to making a bunch of doctors' appointments I've been avoiding just to get out of doing this.
(I completed my self-evaluation by copy-pasting last year's into one of our internal AI copy-edit bots and asking for a rewrite. BOOM, thank you robot overlords.)

Our wings are not tired
It has been and continues to be a hectic month. Lots of projects up and running and shows opening and closing this month.

Hello fuzzy Buffistas. I just got back from a 2-1/2 hour visit to the eye doctor. Tests and measurements and such on 6 different machines. Having the surgery on the right eye Jan 15, and the left the 21st. Woot! Seeing is in my future. Going to Ortho on Monday to see about doing more for my hip. Bodies, man!
