positive backlog
Oct. 11th, 2013 11:25 am(I keep going to sleep or getting laid and forgetting to post. Sorry!)
Wednesday:
1. I got both new lab managers to agree to join me in wearing polka-dots this Friday. I missed this game a lot! Clothes and low-key bonding, hard to beat. [note: this is TODAY, expect outfit pic later]
2. Chilly low mist over the lake in the morning, just beautiful. Graceful, gauzy horizontal streaks of sunset in blue and cyan and peach.
3. Good couple of days for historical scholarship acknowledging women:

http://judithweingarten.blogspot.com/2013/10/how-prince-became-princess.html (in response to which sovay said what I was also thinking)
4. Also a good day for other people's strange clothing. I saw a hat that was also a scarf by way of an elongated crown (actually being worn) and a truly horrid bridesmaid dress made of sheer netting and fake autumn leaves (not being worn by a real person, thank goodness).
5. Pho and M-pig time.
Thursday:
1. Got enough sleep and feeling halfway decent.
2. Ovulation is distracting but fun. Did you know that a bottle of Mexican Coke feels entrancingly smooth on your lower lip? Try it!
3. Moved money back into savings for a change.
4. Successful managerial-type talk with underperforming person. I think we did great with this, pretty proud of myself.
5. Elementary season 2 episode 1 (in which pigeons do not work like that), pizza, Rock Band, sweetie.
