I’m finished working for the day but I have a volunteer-related Zoom meeting starting in less than an hour, so I figure why bother to relocate to the living room for such a short period of time: I’ll just hang out here and post in the MMP (on a Monday! woot!), and eventually have a banana and nuke a Hormel pot roast thingy for dinner. Then after the meeting I will treat myself to some yummy popcorn. 🍿 Cute Fellow Volunteer might also be in this evening’s meeting. There’s another online thing at the same time that I know he’s interested in, but if he makes it tonight I might have to be a brazen hussy and send him a “hey” chat message.

The fourth week of every month is “volunteer meeting” week: leadership on Mondays, general membership on Tuesdays, and my committee on Wednesdays. All at 7pm. I get a bit of a break during the general membership meetings: I generally don’t have to participate in/be on-camera for those, so I can sit on my couch in my jammies with Zoom running on my little iPad. But by the fourth Thursday evening of each month I need some serious “leave me alone” time and am ready to growl at anyone who messages/emails/texts me. I’m alright again by Friday morning, though. 😁

Yeaaahhhh the “making him dinner” thing won’t be happening. I’ll have to figure out some other charms to rely on. 😁

I _am_ grateful that **pilot** bolds his links. 🙂

I second **pilot** ’s “you’re cute!” 😃

(but yanno in a totally hetero “chicks can appreciate other chicks” way)

Yes!! Plus the next verse: “Be kind to your friends in the swamp, where the weather is very very damp.”

(with “damp” pronounced to rhyme with “swamp,” of course)

(N.O.S)

And I thought DC’s weather was nuts! 😮
