Early Blarg: I can’t believe it’s still Wednesday. And I’m supposed to work Saturday.

Well, this is my second day back at work. Everyone is sick or on vacation so we continue to be short staffed, and I have yet to get to the huge pile of work awaiting my tender ministrations, because I have to train a new staffer who started a couple of weeks ago, and who was being babysat by someone with just a… Read more

Was full on winter today but didn’t get all that much snow - light enough that I shoveled rather than used the snow blower. Then I dragged out the old sofa followed by walking the hounds with my Aunt. The living room is all set for tomorrow’s sofa delivery. Read more

Just go to a local chocolate place and get them some fancy chocolates. So easy. Especially if the local place wraps them for you. Or framed pictures of the Tonk Patrol. Who wouldn’t want that.

Last Christmas is hanging on by a thread for availability in local theaters, so I’m gonna try to see it this weekend, because even if it somehow got on a streaming platform before Christmas, I wouldn’t give a shit about trying to watch it. Read more

I hate obligatory gift giving. I buy things when I see something that someone I care about would like. 

My current holiday viewing is watching today’s regularly shhheduled magpie/currawong brawl as the latter tries to sneak in for meat scraps and my buddy Sinatra the magpie hides, waits, and swoops in. I think he enjoys it (‘A-ha! thought I’d flown off, didja?’ SWATSWATPECK). Read more

Today I opted out of participating in a Secret Santa thing at work. It would literally be the only Christmas shopping I would be doing if I was participating. Read more

They did, and we bought a hypoallergenic food last week and started her on that. We thought maybe it was litter b/c we switched litter (accidentally: same brand but different kind) and the patches were on feet, legs, and belly (ie, places that would come in contact with litter). But who knows? Read more

Barely got to work in time for the 9:30 conference call. I left earlier enough than usual, but traffic also sucked more than usual and I would also say Waze didn’t exactly take me on the best route, there was a lot of waiting at lights for 2-3 cycles to get through. Read more

Cats to vet again last night. One cat is losing fur; other cat went b/c she’s a dick to first cat if we don’t take them together (gets hissy and reject-y upon return to the Pumpkin Palace). Vet still thinks fur loss is allergy-related, so we’re trying another, longer-term, steroid shot. Why can’t the little buggers… Read more

Eh. I ended up with a blue tit. But it is December in Iowa, so...🤷‍♀️

I’m doing ok. I have stomach flu which sucks but am feeling better. Also my mom was here for a week and we had a lot of fun (until I got sick). Now I’m going back to bed.

Made a butt ton of cookies this morning. I don’t know how bakers do this stuff for a living.

Sorry not really been commenting, but I have been busier than a cat at a laser pointer convention Read more

Snow up top today, with a touch of hail, but we’ve got a strange burst of sunshine between the wind and rain.
