2 Servings of Vegetarian “Chikin” Curry
1 Interesting Monday
I worked more on Grandma Gator’s blanket today. Not much as I was and still am fried from work. I made dinner tonight, though. We had a curry made with vegetarian chicken from Morningstar Farms. It was good.

1 Shot of Peach Vodka
There is great disturbances in the United States right now. Some white terrorists stormed the Capital Building earlier today and ransacked the place. They were not treated as the BLM protestors were. At all. And I am shaking in rage at the unfairness of it all.
So I’m going to focus on what I can control.

Spock has been a little snuggly as of the last few days. Not sick, but I think the cold weather has him sticking close for the body heat.

Today has been A Day for me. I had a panic attack today. As well as I had my doctor’s appointment with Peter this morning; so I am absolutely fried.

6 Holiday Cards Prepared
2 Hours of System Outage
1 More Sleep Till Friday
I got the cutest pack of holiday cards from Linna before they moved up north. It has a stocking on one set and an adorable dressed up otter on the other set. I quite liked filling out cards, even though they won’t likely be there in time for Christmas. Maybe New Year’s?

We had a jarred curry sauce over Morning Star Farms fake chicken tonight. Fen made it with some peas and carrots and served it over 90 second rice. It was really good. I added too much hot sauce and made my nose run though.
Speaking of hot sauce, I wore the first pair of Taco Bell socks today. They were great!
Work went…okay. There were two tubs of mail to process so it took me over two hours to scan everything in.
When I got home, though, I had a Christmas card waiting from both Papa Ben and Pop Tom as well as from my friend Savvy! She sent the cutest Grinch card and wrote a very sweet message inside.
I haven’t gotten any writing done, unfortunately. I was in too much pain after work to focus on writing. Or reading. Or crocheting for longer than ten minutes at a time. So it was a few episodes of Murder, She Wrote and a bowl of frosted mini wheats for dessert.
My brain is fried. I’m going to go read for a bit, if I can.
Take your meds, folks.

Spock is being exceptionally vocal tonight. He’s chirruping and meowing and purring up a storm. He’s been a real cuddle bug since I got home from work. Maybe he knows I’m not feeling one hundred percent better yet?
