Happy Wednesday!!! Slept okay. Got my new overblanket yesterday. It's better made than I thought it might be.With it, the old afghan becomes the day cover for the old cat.
We have the weatherization guys coming to visit today. They're about it, I think. Not sure what time or how long, as I have to ride over to the other job, too. I'd rather do that in the morning. Meh, we'll see. Something will become apparent.
After the coffee kicks all the way in . . . .
In the same way that someone in the midst of a rough crowd guards a wound with great care, so in the midst of bad company should one always guard the wound that is the mind.
It is finally cooling off a little bit. We might even get our first hard freeze this week. It's 36º now.
I'm even dressed in layers. I had to get into my sock drawer and socks mean shoes and I really hate shoes.
Aren't you supposed to chuck them at the Bushes? Hang them on trees? The Christmas/Hanukkah/Kwanza Rainbow shoe tree?

I think I need some "inclusive" crocodile-tear cowboy boots for Target's Disney Transexual Day, because, I want to be a cowboy bay-bee, ride all night and shoot Bud-Lite™ cans all day! Cowboy bay-bee...
The weatherization guy - singular - has done come-n-went. It seems, according to him, that our disaster guys are testing out where he is, so we're not getting screwed or over-demolishing. I reckon that helps things make sense.
They got the elevator thing sorted out as far as scope of work and quote. Even the corporate barrister agreed, which almost never happens. Now, the trick is getting a date for arrival. Wat would settle for a returned phonecall first.
Snow beats all fuck outta motherfuckers who can't return a motherfucking phone call, either. Customer service: a thing that keeps on keeping on going away.
Home. Knocking out the last of the roast beast tonight. It's been some good eatin' from start to finish and makes me damned glad to be a carnivore.
Happy Friday!!! It got here at last. Probably a shortish workday.
The Kitten is stuck back in a corner. It's funny to listen to her back there. Of course, it is 100% her doing. So we say "curiosity killed the cat," but she's not going to get killed. The girlcat is watching intently.
I'm drinking coffee.
Few cross over the river. Most are stranded on this side. On the riverbank they run up and down. But the wise person, following the way, Crosses over, beyond the reach of death. Free from desire, Free from possessions, Free from attachment and appetite, Following the seven lights of awakening, And rejoicing greatly in his freedom, In this world the wise person Becomes themselves a light, Pure, shining, free.
Looks like I still get to hang out for our regularly scheduled 1300 Friday meeting - it didn't get cancelled.
The elevator cunts lied to us. This all smacks of some serious monopoly shit going on. The deal was cut on the parts being in stock. They are, in Buttfuckistan. They're return email specifically sites shipping issues since covid, which is so 2020. What a bunch of scam peddling wretched twats,
