Well, best laid plans went a little awry today. The developer didn’t change Bubbles’ hair color as much as I hoped so well be redoing it tomorrow.

7 Hours without Air Conditioning at Work
1 Hour Free
They sent us home early today, by an hour, because the power kept flickering and we were without air conditioning for the day due to a broken pipe in the building, or something like that. It was miserable.

2 Loads of Laundry to be Put Away
I slept way too late today, but I at least got some decent rest. I still have laundry to put away, but I’ll get to it. Probably tomorrow because I’m low on spoons today.

2 Christmas Cards Received
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.

Boy was today a wonky but enjoyable day. I didn’t get much sleep last night. Just couldn’t shut down until after four a.m. I’m hoping I can bunk down here in the next few. I’m tired.
But a good tired.
