You guys had a riot? On account of me? A real riot?

I remember the crazy days. 500 posts an hour. Nubmer! Natgbsb

I’m going with friends to a double feature movie on Monday. I’m gonna out for late breakfast before.

I'm just going to stay home and not watch or read any news. We live far enough out that there will be zero impact on traffic.

Hope everything went smoothly yesterday, msbelle, and that you were able to have some birthday goodness.

And, Laura, when you can screen again, I hope your eye surgery went well!

Biopsy was uneventful. Felt fine yesterday. Today I felt some soreness while driving (I steer it seems mostly with my left arm).

Thanks.

Punishingly Intricate

Huzzah for uneventful!

At my current job, and my last one, we really have to stack meetings in the middle of the day because we have people on both coasts.

If you're going through hell/keep on going/don't slow down/keep your fear from showing/you might be gone/'fore the devil even knows you're there

I fucking hate people who schedule 12:00 meetings.

It me! There’s just no way around it with all the calendars and time zones.

But if I recall you’re mostly dealing with local folks, yeah? F them

Yeah, I end up in noon meetings either because of time zones or because the rest of the day is already scheduled once everyone who is supposed to meet is taken into account. They are terrible, regardless of why they happen. And worse when bracketed by 11 am and 1 pm meetings

Do you think it would be ironic for me to watch the season premier of Severance while I’m supposed to be working? There’s probably a better descriptor.

Yesterday felt quite woodsy to me. I chopped a fallen limb into smaller pieces suitable for burning, and then last night my patio lights were tripped by an opossum wandering through.

Yup, you're getting back to the land. Or something.

My boss just scheduled a noon Zoom call. Not where I want posting makes it happen to apply!
