Good Things from Yesterday (things that did not suck):
The STC meeting was really good, and informative, though it made me want to work somewhere that the process isn’t broken.
I registered for ConQuest for Labor Day weekend (as a DM, so free!), and reserved a hotel room for me and the dog, so I only need cat care for the weekend (which means finding someone who can pill a cat and can drop by twice a day, but that’s it– not needing 4 walk breaks for Hammer is a plus when finding weekend care for the pets).
At ConQuest, I’m going to run a FUDGE game, even though I never have run one before, in which you play a sneaky rat…. literally. The basic premise of the game is that the characters are rats working for wererats and undermining the “evil” heroes who are trying to wipe out the wererats. Should be fun! I also volunteered to run a 2-hour Fluxx demo, and will probably bring my Chrononauts cards in case the demo gets slow after an hour or so.
Don’t look at me like that. I know I just posted 5 minute ago….
The suckage day from yesterday spilled onto this morning:
Woke up with cramps. Am on my emergency supply of feminine products and need to go to the store. You’re welcome– I knew you wanted to know that.
Forgot to plug in my iPod last night, so it didn’t charge and I didn’t get to listen to my book on the way to work.
Spilled dog food on my shirt– and didn’t notice till I was at work.
Accidentally dropped a second PetTab into Hammer’s bowl. Too annoyed to remove it, so he got double vitamins.
John changed the email server last night, so my password didn’t work this morning, and I was tired and frustrated and CRANKY so I yelled at him because it wasn’t working.
Forgot to send in my recommit forms, so I will now have to go to the TNT office and drop them off tomorrow.
While storing yard sale things in the garage this morning, I lost the lock for the garage. It dematerialized; I have no idea where it could have gone.
Good things today:
I am wearing socks with sushi on them (not literally– they’re pictures of sushi).
I am having sushi for lunch today with a friend.
We are also stopping at the Farmer’s Market at lunchtime.
The cat did not get out this morning, even though he wanted to.
I had an interesting dream last night that I thought I would like to write about (unfortunately, I forgot it, but that’s neither here nor there).
I went and got cash and coffee before work this morning, and the coffee was nice and calming and made me hate the world a little less.
I will have time this evening to go for a bike ride.
My legs are sore from my run yesterday (yes, that’s a good thing– I wanted to push myself).
Someone posted in my community . I should really try to make that comm more active… I should play dulcimer more… and Redwood Dulcimer Day is coming up fast.
My car is empty except for two bottles of water.
