People must be working and shit.
Tough jury day today. Sometimes it’s just a lot.
She just... she just did the math.

Catching up on 700+ emails from during my vacation today. Took a while.

And then Ortus came and said "It's Ortin' time" and they all Orted off into the sunset
ABC/Disney caved to pressure and is putting Kimmel back on the air.
Apparently he will NOT be broadcast on Sinclair-owned local stations - folks who are so inclined should continue local targeted boycotts/letters/etc.
According to Instagram the Rapture is today?? Is everyone still here??

I adore all you motherfuckers so much -- PMM.
Shana tovah, Buffistas. And thank you, Nilly, for your sweet note. May the love you show us always be reflected back to you as needed.
Scheduling the Rapture on Rosh HaShanah feels like somebody didn't check their calendar, but maybe that's just me.

Just in case the Rapture doesn't happen, Fat Bear Week voting opens at noon ET today!

Happy Birthdays to Matilda and Emmett.
I saw T at mom’s house the other day which was awesome! And now she’s headed here today. This is a thing I was trying to avoid because my house is a cluttered mess. We haven’t been home much on the weekends to do much about it, and I’ve been in too much pain to do much on my own. So I just did two hours of whirlwind cleanup (which I am definitely going to pay for tomorrow), and I am attempting to embrace the principle of good enough.

Our wings are not tired.
More than good enough, because T want to see you. Trust me on this.

To the surprise of no one, I have not been raptured!
Sadly two of the downtown alley cats I feed (a father and daughter) seem to have disappeared. I hope they've just relocated together, as both being caught or taken in as rescues together seems unlikely. Poor ancient Jo Jo looks to be the last cat standing in that particular alley.

Maybe the cats are the only ones who were raptured.
But also maybe the rapture is later tonight?? Or was it supposed to be yesterday and now we know it’s done?

See, when I first saw something about the Rapture being this week I am quite certain it was supposed to be on Wednesday. Typical.

The gates are open, right, so maybe that’s the easiest time to do it. I am not a theologian.
I took today off from work for the holiday intending to work in the yard but it’s a high of 97 so that probably won’t happen. Working from home tomorrow, will I be able to tell if half the company is raptured? Maybe not. Was reminded by FB memories that we had a big layoff on Rosh Hashana one year, hopefully that will not happen this year. They did wait until I was back in the office to tell me I was affected and offer a demotion and pay cut, so it’s not a totally irrational worry, especially with a state bill banning the distribution of PTFE cookware sitting on the governor’s desk. But if that happens I will have plenty of time to chainsaw the blackberry bushes, so that’s a comfort.
Hope you are having another great visit, sj!
