Timelies all!
The high temp today was supposed to be in the high 30s. Downright balmy, considering we're going back to below freezing tomorrow. Is winter over yet?
Oh my god. What can it be? We're all doomed! Who's flying this thing!? Oh right, that would be me. Back to work.

Fandom means never having to say "But where would I wear that?"

Snow is falling here. Not really sticking yet, hopefully the roads are warm enough to keep it from sticking tonight.

Sophia, they might have a specific term for such a meeting. I think in hospitals they call them morbidity and mortality meetings? Not 100% sure however. I think they focus on what went wrong in those.
Very true--but M&M meetings are even more specific than post-mortem, that would definitely confuse people if that's not what they're doing.
I am so annoyed by our archaic systems at work. They're godawful and ancient and used for way too many things they weren't built for. And I just entered something and the only way to fix ONE WRONG CLICK is to ask IT. My report is due tomorrow but IT takes up to 5 days apparently. Argh.

Why did Darth Vader cross the road? To get to the Dark Side!

ooh, sounds super annoying, meara.
I knew that M&M meetings were pretty specific--and that I don't know how precisely the term is used--that's why I said I wasn't sure. But "debriefing" seems fairly all-purpose.

Ugh, my poor student. He's a hemophiliac, and he bashed his knee and it has filled with fluid (blood I assume). He has to go to the emergency room and anticipates missing school tomorrow. I'm just thinking what a gruel it must be for him, every little bonk is potentially life threatening!

Oh wow, that does sound like a pain, poor guy.
My tonsils are so annoying at the moment I am wishing I could give myself a tonsilectomy. They always swell up like crazy whenever I'm sick, so right now my throat doesn't hurt because it's raw, but just because they're all swollen. And I can FEEL them. Which is so gross. And annoying. Almost all my cold symptoms are gone, except this. Blech blech blech.

Oh ick, meara, I hate that feeling.

Thanks. I'm feeling grumpy and lonesome, but not able to go interact with people. And there is not enough internets! Make more internets, people!!

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
Sick AND bored? No good.

I just spent almost 2 hours darning up my coat pockets (do you darn nylon?) And reinforcing some stitching on my swimsuit.
Goddamn, that took a long time for maybe 8". I really need to get a sewing machine.
