Yes, I bought myself a birthday cake. But I was not so lame that I put a candle on it and blew it out. That would have just been way over the top sad. I did, though, eat half of it. In three goes btw. I did not just sit down and eat half of it! I will probably try to finish it tonight because most cakes get stale really quickly once they are cut into. It was pretty darn tasty. Thank you Wegman’s.
I took another day off today. Mainly because yesterday was kinda lame. Only in that I was thwarted in what I wanted to do by the weather and a chicken-assed masseuse. Other than that, though, the day was pretty pleasant.
And today, more of the same. I managed to get all the dishes, and glasses!, washed. And the pans. I did not clean the stove top. That will wait for Friday or Saturday.
Part of the reason I stayed home today was because there was a flurry of activity around GLO and getting things (tickets for the show (in July) and banquet (in May)) linked to the home page to sell. All I had to actually do was to add some links and buttons to the main page of the GLO website. But it all took an hour of me doing it and thinking about.
And for some reason, the urgency behind the mailing list amped up from 0 to 100. I had gotten a message saying that we were sharing our mailing list with someone by April 18. The date she actually requested. Then suddenly she wanted it for April 9 apparently. And the person who had taken over the mailing list threw up their hands and said that it was now my responsibility. I told them, fine, but I won’t be able to get to it until this weekend. And they sent a pile of crap to the poor woman. Sigh.
I will still work on it this weekend. The mailing list as designed is way too complicated for most people to use – especially people who aren’t comfortable with complex spreadsheet design. My plan is to take all the info that we have. Sort and cull. And then make the sheet way simpler. And go forward from there. We shall see if that happens.
Other than that, it was a quiet day. My soc sec check arrived so I spent a bit of it to help me smile. Not that I need much help since I am quite a happy person for the most part. Happiness is, mostly, a choice. In my humble opinion. Again, no reading. I will try to crank through the book this weekend as well.
Oh, and it is duck weekend. I am so excited! I still haven’t decided whether to do a Chinese style duck or a french style. Leaning towards French.
I played some more Wasteland 3 today. Of course there are things I haven’t figured out, like how to cure poisoning. Still, learning the quirks of a game is half the fun in my humble opinion. (imho). I’ll play more over the weekend.
Ok, time for some Duolingo. And then either quiche or my leftover Reuben from the other night. I want to add some more swiss cheese to it and see if that helps. The corned beef was weird. It sort of had the mouth feel of already masticated food. That wasn’t pleasant. And there was not nearly enough swiss cheese. I wonder if there was any…
