Well, something nice happened.

Posted on October 13, 2020

Our company has made election day a holiday! Not some “if you haven’t already voted, you can take the day” bullshit, but a full on “office is closed, moose out front shoulda told you” holiday. Another nice thing – just … Continue reading →

Another Monday

Posted on October 12, 2020

And Lindsey Graham is going to infect the entire damn Judiciary committee with Covid to get 45’s craptastic SCTOUS nominee through. I don’t even know how we fight that, given that the R’s just don’t give a shit, have no … Continue reading →

Oh, let there be light!

Posted on October 10, 2020

On this World Mental Health Day, I would be remiss if I didn’t mention the importance of good lighting. If you can’t get good natural light (and it’s not easy) – get decent lamps. Lots of them. I know it’s … Continue reading →

Well, if we’re gonna be on this bullshit for another year

Posted on October 10, 2020

Guess it’s best to think about making some changes to save my sanity. (Here’s hoping it will be less necessary after January 20th.) — HYDRATION! I am not awesome about this, and I know it is important. I am better … Continue reading →

How do I do this for another *year*?

Posted on October 9, 2020

I mean, I will, because I have to, but I just don’t know how I manage it with any shred of grace or sanity. I definitely have pandemic burnout. I am still mostly functioning (though you couldn’t tell it from … Continue reading →

Got my diagnosis

Posted on October 5, 2020

The tooth I thought was the problem, is not in fact the problem. It is *a* problem, as my teeth have FUCKING SHIFTED AND OPENED UP A SPACE BETWEEN THE TOOTH AND THE IMPLANT. The tooth next to the implant … Continue reading →

Oddly excited

Posted on October 5, 2020

To go see my dentist this morning, if for no other reason, once it is confirmed that my tooth is mucked up, then, hey, it’s not Covid! (And of course, some sort of treatment to make it better.) I mean, … Continue reading →

OK, so it’s going to be a stupid day, got it.

Posted on October 4, 2020

Hit Total Wine, got what I needed, and then every damn grocery store on the way home and could not find the Rice Select Risotto rice. Rice Select is my preferred brand for any non-Minute Rice, good quality, resealable canisters, … Continue reading →

Ouch…

Posted on October 4, 2020

It’s rare that I ever think to myself, “Damn, I am so glad my dentist could fit me in for a diagnostic visit tomorrow,” especially in the middle of a pandemic. But damn, that is how much my fucking tooth … Continue reading →
