Too many war wounds and not enough wars
I apparently slept hard last night, as today I am achy and sore. Ah well, at least I slept. Once I eat something, I'll have some ibuprofen and that'll take care of that. As usual the local news is on, telling me all the shitty things in the world. I have no idea why this is how my sister starts the day. I know she likes to get the weather and traffic, but surely there's a less depressing way.
On Sundays, when I get up on my own, I sit in glorious silence, and I love it.
Since my sister got her new phone, I've been looking at the Galaxy S20 Note Ultra and I am so tempted. It's out of stock right now, but I have hopes that maybe after vacation it'll come back in, and I can consider it. It just looks so shiny! (I don't need the extra money on my bill, but my inner geek waaants.)
Jess did some research and found that some companies will use non-toxic chemicals to clean former flood areas, so that's a relief. We might not have to evacuate the basement after all. Now, I just need to make that call. I'd really rather fast forward to when it's done and we have heat again. I miss endless showers, though I've gotten really good at short ones.
We have a team meeting at work today, so that's always fun. No clue what this one is about. Probably something annoying that my team will bitch about mightily. That seems to be the usual tendency at least. Then tomorrow, I have the rescheduled phantom meeting, that I still have no clue what it is. Then Thursday, a meeting with the transport company to discuss why they suck and what they can do better. Since they've been getting bitchier with their comments on the reports, I feel like this meeting could get ugly fast. I will, of course be professional and non-accusatory as possible, of course. My manager and my coworker are going to be in it as well, so I at least have backup.
Okay, I should have some more coffee and consider getting myself together for work. 30 days to vacation now!
