Ugh. waiting for a call back. I reached out to senior leadership this morning about some serious concerns I have about the direction of our department and risk to talent. Would appreciate any stay focused ~ma so I can get everything across without sounding like it's a bunch of complaining.
Nobody can tell Marmaduke what to do. That's my kind of dog.

Don't you belong to a gym? Shower there!
The showers are sketchy as hell. I'm just going to gird my loins and take the fastest shower ever. There may be screaming.

Wow. You have ovaries of steel. I'd wear flip-flops and use a sketchy shower over an ice cold one anyday. I'll JUMP into cold water and get out immediately, but an ice-cold shower fills me with fear and loathing.

They always test my glucose, too, and that's always fine. So I've got that going for me.
Mine has been fine 99% of the time, but they also check my glucose because of my family history.
Anyhoodle, I'm just mentally preparing for all the fist-shaking I'll be doing at the universe when I go in for a physical and my numbers still aren't great despite massive lifestyle changes because genetics.

When I ran the hot water tap in the bathroom sink, it went from ice cold to...room temperature, if the room hasn't had the furnace turned on yet. So, basically, a touch "warmer" than cold.

I am kind of pissed that all the oatmeal, fruit/veg, coconut oil, and exercise had very little effect. I mean, I could have been eating Frankenberry for breakfast and loafing around instead of going to the gym like a chump.

But if you'd been doing that, your cholesterol could have gone super high!

Oooh, fair point. (Besides, the Frankenberry doesn't taste as good as I remember it tasting when I was a kid.)
Okay, I'm about to brave the shower. Maybe I'll pretend it's summer camp (which never, EVER had hot water for the showers).
