Natter 74: Ready or Not
Off-topic discussion. Wanna talk about corsets, duct tape, butt kicking, or physics? This is the place. Detailed discussion of any current-season TV must be whitefonted.
Suzi, is there anyone who can retrieve your phone for you? I'm sorry you're having such a terrible day.
Ltc is down for nap #2 in her crib today. This time she was exhausted and cranky and didn't fight it at all. This means I should either take the time to read or take a shower, but I'm exhausted and cranky too. So I'm going to nap as well.
Suzi, I hope your day gets better, your co-workers continue to improve, and your feet stop hurting.
Rebecca, I also like not working better than working! We have so much in common!
I wish my boss would put as much energy into helping me when I ask for help, as she puts into escalating simple questions that then never get answered.
Why would someone wear this? Why? Did she lose a bet? A bet with Satan?

I found I also prefer not working to working. We all have something in common.
Thanks for the link, Dana- that is somewhat helpful! I already had cut back at cute overload when the comment system changed, and it seemed like there was not as much conversation in the comments, but still, I think I have been there every day for 10 years. I even learned about my second favorite cute blog, the itty bitty citty committee on Cute overload.

That's not gonna become a trend.

Sweet fancy Moses.
I am still cold, wet, and angry, but at least I'm almost at the office. I have dry shoes at my desk, and I shouldn't need to reschedule any meetings.

What the???
The one time I was on worker's comp disability and was being paid to not work, tax free...I could definitely see why some people game that system.
I fly home tomorrow evening, so having one of the kids drive out to the airport seems excessive. Will see what happens tomorrow.
I almost kind of like the idea? As an abstract experiment in what clothing can be. Like, some genius could maybe tweak it into actually being fabulous, even.
Oh man, Suzi -- that was a hell of a morning. I hope the rest of the day is better.
FWIW, I am also interested in not working and seeing friends.
However, my workday so far has been a big meeting that went well, and a side meeting after the big meeting. Next I have two more meetings, so I think I'm just going to waste the next 35 minutes.

That makes sense. I think it belongs on the runway but not on the red carpet.
It looks like it is more tea for me rather than a nap. ltc only slept for about 20 minutes and then woke up needing a diaper change. I couldn't get her to go back to sleep. I'm trying not to get her up from the crib until she has at least slept a little bit, which she did. So, she's in the swing now.
