Can we make Wino Wednesday a thing?

Frances had to make up a holiday for homework, so she made Fan Day, where everyone gets to celebrate their fandoms and everyone is nice about it. It went over well in class, but lost in popularity to Netflix Day. She was philosophical about it. I suggested that really one could celebrate them both at once.

Never thought I'd send an episode of Pop Culture Happy Hour to HR at my job, but Trevor Noah talked so specifically and correctly about hiring for diversity, I just had to! Interesting. The whole thing is here: [link]

Oo, marked for later. After GRADING, egad! will it never end?! There isn't enough punctuation for me to express my annoyance

Coffee update: I brought in my coffee today! But I haven't made any yet. And I just might not today - I'm doing a cleanse and I slept so badly last night, maybe I need a day of no caffeine (even from decaf)? It's not too late to change my mind, though.

Can we make Wino Wednesday a thing?

Yes we can!

I love Fan Day, so inclusive! Netflix Day is also nice, although I celebrate that pretty often, really. I guess i kind of celebrate Fan Day pretty often, too, but I would like everyone else to also.

Wino Wednesday sounds like an excellent plan to me, let's get it going.

Or couldn't we just skip ahead and screw giving Tuesday and make it Tea and Pajamas Tuesday or something?

her if she's just wants to meet for coffee, just friends, OK, but if she's unsure if she should get back together with other girl yet another time that you'd prefer if she worked that out on her own.

Excellent plan.

I have downloaded that episode of Pop Culture Happy Hour to listen to on planes.

I fly back to SF tonight. I turned the crappy wifi on at my parents' house to check work email since I'm not arriving home until after midnight and I have an 8:30am meeting tomorrow. Found out who my new manager will be just now and I'm cautiously pleased. I've worked with him before and he's very WYSIWYG.

If my passport hasn't been stolen from my apartment building, I'll be flying to India on Sunday. I'm probably very prepared, but I don't feel like it.

When my time hasn't been commandeered by small children, I've mostly been sleeping a lot, reading a lot, and sipping scotch, so that's been nice.

That does sound nice, especially as your near future plans are wearing me out just reading. Good, but a lot.

OK, I have my outlet training in bit, I think that does call for coffee.

Or couldn't we just skip ahead and screw giving Tuesday and make it Tea and Pajamas Tuesday or something?

Tequila Tuesday. Or Tanqueray Tuesday.

And I just had to use A LOT of willpower not to say "Nothing is fucked" to my coworkers (I opened my overhead cabinet thing and my coffee grinder fell onto a teacup, but nothing broke and nothing spilled, it's all good. Which would have been more appropriate to say, but "nothing is fucked" is what was on the tip of my tongue)

Could I have lasted another 3 hrs at work? Maybe. But I didn't want to. Lying down now and everyone who was all hurry up, hurry up....and then didn't respond to my requests can just wait themselves now.

Sounds like a good vacation, shrift. And I'm sure you are prepared for India, but ooh! exciting!
