And, it's back to work I go. Sometimes, it feels like you didn't have a weekend at all. This wasn't as horrible as it could have been, since we managed to get out three separate times, but I'm still resenting having to go to work when I could be sleeping in. (Total lie, I probably wouldn't have slept in at all.)

Yesterday, we did indeed get our little trips out in. First for El Salvadoran food. They were a touch late opening up, so we went into the little attached mercado, and found that they sell the chorizo by the pound! This is exciting, because I love that fucking sausage. We had our breakfast, which was SO good, and then we slipped back over and I bought two pounds of the spicy chorizo. I may regret choosing the spicy, but we'll see. We're having that for dinner tonight.

Then, we had a stretch of Dad duty while my sister was out. We tried to get him up into the wheelchair, and I had to tap out mid-way through because my back was spasming. We had him in the sling dangling, but I just couldn't quite muscle through and turn the hoyer to get him in the chair. Had I tried, I probably would have ended up taking today off work on account of being flat on my back. I felt bad, but I just couldn't do it.

Once I'd relaxed for a while, and my sister got home, we went to one of the Japanese dessert places in the area. They're kind of ideal for me, since they're not overly sweet. I got a caramel pudding, which was a little different texture than I expected, but was delicious. And a caramel cake, which was lovely. Jess got tiramisu and we split a milk tea. It was very nice, though next time I may try the other place and get a milk cap cake. That was very good last time we got it.

My back is kinda cranky this morning. It's all migrated down into my upper ass cheek. It's okay for sitting or standing, it's the getting up and walking that really annoys it. And of course, if I sit for too long, it gets doubly cranky. Oh well, appointment tomorrow, so we'll see what the doctor says.

Tonight, we have the long awaited return of our Storm Lord's Wrath game. It's been forever since we played, in part thanks to our malfunctioning air conditioning. We'd already not had a game in 2 month, and then the AC kicked us out to 3. So it'll be nice to get back into it tonight.

Okay, time for me to hop off and figure out how to bend enough to get pants on. Everyone have a wonderful Sunday!
