Hi CaBil!
No heat means paid leave, right?
Kaylee: Can I? Zoe: Sure. He's out, though. Kaylee: He did this for me, once.
'Safe'
Natter 78: I might need to watch some Buffy for inspiration

Cats to become a rabbit should gather immediately now here
Yay Matilda! From experience, I would also go afar for college, but I got a full scholarship locally and a good education. I just got shy of travel, but she is in Japan! Where did JZ work? I feel like I had some clinical placement dealings with them (UCSF?)
Hi CaBil!
Steph- the ducks are cute! I was sick for just the second time since February 2020, and it is all related to masking on the bus. I think masking is just a general good.
Much `ma to all the federal workers and family.

I am all vaxxed you and my cats are strictly indoors, so I'm doing OK there, and I will 100% take your advice about masking up. Or, maybe just not go anywhere for a long, long time. There's that, too.
DH is getting some interest from recruiters and such and has applied to a few places with them. Plus some other places just cold. It feels like progress even though no interviews scheduled yet. General ~ma appreciated.
It is snowing very prettily and has been since this afternoon.

I am a woman of various inclinations and only some of the time are they to burn everything down in frustration
Ummmm…aren’t there OSHA standards for that, t? Geez.
I don't think anything that would cover us. The warehouse is always unheated and that's apparently okay for the crew that works out there. In any case, our VP of People gave the word that we can work from home the rest of the week, which I honestly did not expect. Our new CEO starts next Tuesday so now we are crossing our fingers that it's fixed before he shows up. How embarrassing would that be!

Glad to hear your bosses appreciate you askye! And now I am interested in those books where I would not have looked twice at them given just the title. Like I need more to read but sometimes everything I already have waiting to be read just doesn't appeal...

Oh hey CaBil!
Does the flu vax help with bird flu?
Our cat goes out on the patio from time to time and there are birds that hang around so I guess fun time is over for her for awhile.

Does the flu vax help with bird flu?
Sadly, it does not. Viruses are jerks.

"Look, son, if it's good enough for Shirley Bassey, it's good enough for you."
Where did JZ work? I feel like I had some clinical placement dealings with them (UCSF?)
Correct! UCSF.
Not to be confused with USF (University of San Francisco) which is where Matilda was accepted.

oh, interesting thing that has changed. I work a decent number of conventions now, like 10-15 in the year. This is actually one of my busy stretches.
Last weekend: Farpoint Convention, a sci-fi/Star Trek con in Baltimore
This weekend: KatsuCon, an anime con in National Harbor which is DCish
Next Weekend: Dreamation, a rpg/board game convention is Morristown, NJ
Next Next Weekend: Cold Wars, a historical miniatures/gaming convention in Gettysburg, PA
Anyone going to any of those, let me know, we can do a meetup!
