My colleague's Thing is OK and may not happen anyway, so I'm not going to worry about it!

Best of luck Sara!!!

lately. I just gotta get out and do more walking to make up for not walking to the train station every day.

I definitely see the difference in work from home days when I wear my Fitbit. One of the several reasons I'm planning to join/pay for a coworking space once I'm not traveling, even though I have a perfectly good home office.

I feel that Rio could have written this [link]

That person is 100% correct.

Also, along the lines of Jesse's thing, things I did not want to hear this morning at 6am "so I think we need to talk..." Ugh. (And it was that she wanted to confirm we are nonmonogamous and she maybe has a date tonight. Bleh. I'm not crushed by it but I'm not thrilled either...and in ANY case, I didn't want to discuss at 630am!!!!!)

Ugh, meara, bad timing.

Jesse, glad things are ok.

sara, crossing my fingers and toes for ya.

Normally I have a rule that I have to be dressed before I come downstairs to work. Even if it is inside clothes, just something where I wouldn't be embarrassed opening the front door. That has not yet happened today. I know I'll need to deal with that at some point. On the other hand, I actually cooked some eggs for breakfast, which I never do.

aurelia, that is totally cool! I love seeing behind-the-scenes stuff like that.

Working from home was hard for me, because it was so easy to slip into the habit of not ever talking to anyone, even when I did get out of the house. I wouldn't want to do it long-term.

I'm beginning to think I shouldn't either. We'll see.

And here we go...

Good luck, sara! I hope CSwtfe is told to go take a long walk off of a short pier.

Glad that the think is OK, Jesse, and won't be cause for any worry for you.

I think it's been a week like that for everyone, Suzi. It's been pissy and exhausting in general. I hope you get a chance to rebound soon.

Me too. Even though I spent hours in the car each day while I was in NM, I still managed more than 11,000 steps per day. When I'm home, and on a day I don't go to the gym, I'm lucky if I hit 2,000.

There's a few coworking spaces in Harrisburg, but I'm not convinced it would be any better. I wouldn't do it every day, so I couldn't get an office. The only spaces available to me are communal tables with other people. I like my larger monitor and wireless keyboard and I couldn't use them there. There is also such a thing as too much closeness with people. Yes, I know I'm being all Princess in the Pea-like.

Boo, meara. Nothing should be discussed at 6:30 am besides coffee or breakfast.

ltc was very insistent on holding her dish this morning while I fed her breakfast. As in big huge tears. So, after the food was mostly gone, I let her have at it. Messy but worth it.

Ugh, meara, I'm sorry that sucks.

I think Mitt Romney just quoted John Oliver in his speech against Trump, or he at least used a very similar list of Trump's failed business ventures.

It has to be incredibly frustrating for the RNC right now. The right-wing media has their base convinced that Obama has turned the country into a garbage fire and then Trump comes in and scoops their well-tenderized base.

Boom. Can't go official yet, as the rest of the staff doesn't yet know.

Ugh. Sorry, sara. That sucks.
