Todayā€™s activities included a trip to CVS Minute Clinic (more like Hour Clinicā€¦) for the second time in a month.

Hopefully I actually get a decent nightā€™s sleep tonight. ---

Piece of paper on which I wrote ā€œNever forget youā€™re a piece of shit addict.ā€ My former NA sponsor asked me to put it there. Iā€™ve had it since 2008. ---

Your former NA sponsor doesnā€™t seem like a very nice person. Today weā€™re going on a day trip at work. Thereā€™s a couple of VIP visits and weā€™re going down aaaaaaaaall the way to the conference center to meet them (about 500m, which Iā€™m reasonably sure we can all do without breaking down). Hopefully the weather will hold: itā€™s on the cold side but not raining. ---

> [@gigi](#): > > My friend has made my other friend and me swear to donate her to a body farm. She knows her mom would not abide by her wishes. I considered this also - I think itā€™s a fascinating study. I also thought about those plasticized, sliced bodies that go on traveling exhibits in museums, but I expect theyā€™ve got plenty. Just as long as Iā€™m not taking up real estate, Iā€™m good. Good morning! I had a terrible time falling asleep last night and I woke at least twice. Methinks itā€™s gonna be a long day. Iā€™m breakfasting now (PB&J on toast - homemade strawberry J) and Iā€™ll leave for the office in about 25 minutes. Wonder if Dave left me anything to doā€¦? This is payday week, so thatā€™s good. Wonder if my 401k allotment will come out? Which reminds me - I need to move the 401k from my last job. And I want to make an appointment with our financial guy. And I need to make an appointment for the cats to get shot. Always somethingā€¦ Happy Tuesday!! ---

Happy Toosday! Up too early again, I wish I could get on a decent sleep schedule. Today is supposed to be cloudy with a high of 59. Then the rest of the week is sunny and the temps get back up to normal spring temps. Nothing special to do today, always plenty to do but none of it fun. ---

My sister returns home to Nevada today. Norfolk to Dallas; Dallas to Salt Lake City, where a friend will pick her up and take her back to Carlin, Nevada. Itā€™s been great having her here-- prior to this week, I hadnā€™t seen her in person in about six years. ---

**Mooomm** My husband always says the same thing. I have mixed feelings about it. I guess I always thought weā€™d have a place to visit when heā€™s gone. I shall have to think on it some more.

Iā€™ve spent most of my pseudo-productive morning fixing old drawings and even learning a few new things. Boss freaked me out this morning - yesterday, he had a full beard. Today heā€™s completely clean-shaven and looking about 10 years younger - guess the gray in the beard really made a difference. Iā€™m glad I saw him in his office first because I donā€™t know that Iā€™d have recognized him in the wild. Itā€™s been raining all morning. Iā€™m having leftover soup for lunch. That pretty much sums up todayā€™s excitement. Cā€™mon Firday!!! ---

My wallet consists of the usual ID, credit and debit cards and a couple pictures. The one thing I would consider odd is a tiny little book I found on a gas pump one day about 2 years or longer ago. It has a smiley face on the front and says ā€œSmile, Jesus loves youā€. I was feeling especially low that day so I kept it ever since. I took it as a sign. In work news we are getting two new A/C units and the installer (be still my heart) is going to keep one running while he changes out the other so we wonā€™t be too hot. I finished paying my vendors so now it is Budget Time. Oh joy! Can I just have a month without a huge project? I need some down time. ---

I just found a request in my email to add a physician in Houston to my LinkedIn network. Um, sure, fellahā€¦ šŸ˜• I live thousands of miles away, I have no medical connections or desire to have any, and maybe Iā€™m suspicious, but seriously, dude?? Frankly, I donā€™t know why I even made a profile there, but Iā€™m too indifferent to take it down. šŸ˜ƒ [Previous page](https://boards.straightdope.com/t/whats-in-your-wallet-a-nosy-mmp/751874.md?page=3) [Next page](https://boards.straightdope.com/t/whats-in-your-wallet-a-nosy-mmp/751874.md?page=5)
