Good Mornin’ Y’all! Up and caffeinatin’. YAWN 'Tis 74 Amurrkin out and cloudy with a predicted high of 92 for the day and partly cloudy. Also, this is it for irk, at least for now. YAY! Plus tonight I get to grill burgers for the [del]demonic spawn[/del] little angels at VBS. Quite the day in store is it not?
So, BatKid you still lost?
Forgot to say last night, but yay for Mr. Butters!
OK, that’s all I got for now. I need moe caffeine and rumbly tummy demands sustenance. Then, purtification for irk (the last one) must commence.
Last night was epic! I fell asleep and didn’t wake till the alarm went off!!! :eek: AMAZING!!!
Today is supposed to be mega hot and humid, tho, to be fair, the forecast I heard was for DC, and it tends to be less brutal here near the Bay. It will be hot and humid, but I don’t think we’ll see triple digit heat indices. Not that it matters to me - I work in the air conditioning!
And today is free lunch day! We have a snack cabinet here - 75¢ for chips or cookies or pop tarts or whatever. The “profits” from that are gathered quarterly and TPTB will order lunch for the whole building. I’m getting a salad because I didn’t like the other options this time, but no biggie. FREE LUNCH!
Blergh. Way early morning, since I need to take the train to irk today. DH got up about 40 minutes before my alarm was set to go off. This set off the cat’s “it’s breakfast time, Mom!” campaign.
It’s a sunny 76 degrees outside with a projected high of 94.
I think the only reason I’m not grumpy today is because grumpy takes too much energy.
We should go grocery shopping today but the way I feel that is not going to happen.
I forced myself to stay up late last night hoping I would crash and sleep through the night. Didn’t work. I woke up around 6am, was hoping to get back to sleep but the dog fell again. I think it bothers me more than it bothers him.
I have to irk this morning, and from the way I feel now I’ll be needing a nap as soon as my shift is over.
Then we’ll take a drive. I let Sah-son put Pokemon Go on my phone.
So, yesterday Roomie and BoyRoomie set a wedding date. It is literally three months from now. This will be my life for the next three months. They have an insane but fun theme, and I will be making cutesy decorations and favors with every spare minute between now and October 15. So that’s fun. I mean, it will be fun, until I have to address all the invitations because I’m the one with the nicest handwriting.
I consistently got Ds and Fs in penmanship as a child and I don’t know when my handwriting became acceptable. I’m honestly not sure. I’m aware that part of my bad grades in elementary school were because I’m left-handed and would be penalized for my cursive letters not leaning the right way or some such bullshit. But I have no idea how that became “nice handwriting” in the eyes of people who want me to address their Christmas cards and such.
I can write neatly and legibly, but it’s an effort.
The free lunch today was rather nasty. I got a chef salad that consisted of cut-up romaine, grape 'maters, cuke slices, 3 easily removed raw rings of onion (very stinky) topped with chopped up ham and turkey lunch meat and chopped up american cheese. ugh.
My UPS is beeping - apparently we’ve lost one phase of power in the building. My screen keeps blinking, too. I may be off-line shortly. Good times!
BLURF So now I know I have the 3rd worse handwriting in the world and it’s usually cause I am always in a hurry. I could write better if I had the time.
I just found out this morning I am going to Disney World for training in Sept. There was no way to get out of it. I am sending my lead to Orlando in August so it will be my turn in Sept. I don’t want to go but go I must if approved. There are only 18 spots Navy wide so maybe I won’t get one. If I do get one we will be staying at the Animal Kingdom Lodge and going to the Magic Kingdom, and a ton of other places including Cape Canaveral. I am looking forward to the Cirque Du Soleil though.
**Butters **- too bad you’re there during the school year - my daughter works in the Animal Kingdom during school breaks. I just know you’d love to buy a t-shirt from her kiosk!
Obviously power is back. The A phase went out due to… something. And apparently I’m the only one in our group who was powerless - the other offices kept going. But now I’m back, so now I can be productive, I guess.
Just got a double-whammy in my email spam box. The first one showed swampy’s real name as the sender, but with a dot between his first and last names. The message in preview consisted of a link, so I did a right-click over the sender name and the email came up as something that wasn’t swampy’s email. Then the second one showed as coming from me, from the email account that received it!
Spammers are sneaky. But unsuccessful - both got flushed.
MOOOOMMMI had a voice mail the other day from the Internal Revenue Service that they were going to file suit against me. This is a well know scam here in the Keys. We are square with the IRS so they picked the wrong victim.
I got called by the “IRS” also. I don’t answer numbers I don’t recognize, but the scammy robo-caller left a message, and I can’t delete voicemails until I listen to them. Pain in the patoot!
Got my computer back, but the boss is gone and I don’t have anything to do. rah.
