I made my coffee and my todo list for the day. It's a bit intimidating, but I'm trying to just forge my way through it. Starting with the food stuff and the laundry, as I know eventually I'll need to put all my chores aside and help Cody with the Sisyphean task of sorting his mother's books for keep/donate/store in the attic.
Jayne, your mouth is talking. You might wanna look to that.

I have to pack for Grandma's in Richmond, where it will be mid-seventies, and LA, where it won't be that warm. El Nino is keeping me on my packing toes.

I haven't trusted science since I saw the film "Flubber."
It's going to be 80 degrees on Christmas in New Orleans.

I intended to get up and go to work at a reasonable time this morning, but jetlag is being a beast. I didn't really wanna go to my 9am and 9:30am meetings, so I have declined them, figuring I would mostly be incoherent.
My new goal is just to make it into to work so I can do two things. No, three things. That is all.
I figure I'm owed a few days considering I lost the last three weekends to international work travel.

I am feeling vindicated! I ran 5 miles this morning AND (AND!!) I have finished my work conference call AND AND AND I sent my package to my mom.

Every now and then, I think I might actually be a little odd.
Kat, you're winning all the adulting today!

You are way ahead of me, Kat.
So this happened to my college roommate and her family yesterday: [link]
Thankfully everyone is okay. What an awful thing to happen, ever, but right at the holidays seems especially terrible. I know Trudy's been through this as well.

I am at work. A library patron just asked me how to spell "turd."
It's practically like being at home, except I am pretty sure my son knows how to spell turd.
