It's hump day! We're almost halfway through the work week! I'm a touch grumpy this morning, owing to a small cat who began yelling at approximately 4am. She yelled every few minutes until I got up to feed her. And then, she ate, and yelled some more. She was very cute, but goddamn, it was also loud as hell. I woke up with a bit of a headache, which didn't help my annoyance, but we've medicated, so hopefully that'll dissipate.
After a year of furiously buying from Temu, I had my first "buyer beware" moment as a small vase I bought turned out to be a printed plastic standup. I should have read the description, but it was so cute, I just hit "in my cart" rather than looking. Oh well, at least it was only $7. I'll get a real one when I get paid again, and I'll read the description.
I had a bit of a rough evening right after work. I was cooking and made a cake, and it was horrible. Not enough sugar or too much floof powder, maybe. Then, I made a chocolate glaze, and it ended up all over the place. It ended up in the trash. Then, while I was cooking, I stepped on/bumped Yoda, and he yelped like I had murdered him. So I cried. Jess settled me down and made me take an anti anxiety med, which helped a lot.
Today, we're doing a stir fry, I think. Unless I don't feel like it, in which case we will have baked chicken.
If I'm doing the stir fry, I need to make the marinade soon, and cut some chicken to throw in it. Or, I could add a little gochujang and make semi spicy chicken over rice with veg. I will think on this.
Tomorrow, I'm off work, because we were supposed to take Yoda to the vet for his yearly checkup. Then, we were supposed to have 10+" of snow, so I cancelled. But all the snow has moved down south, and so we're getting nothing. It's okay, not like I can't use a day to relax. I booked a taste test with McCormick's spices, to taste test Doritos, so that'll make me $40 on top of PTO.
Okay, time for me to to get my act together and make a marinade or something. Everyone have an awesome Wednesday!
