thepnutgalleryUp just a little before the sun, but given how early I crashed last night, I still felt plenty rested. I forgot to set up my virtual office but did check in with everyone on Teams. Several folks asked about my weekend as well and I always get stuck there. I think I've mentioned before that I've noticed when people ask a question or post a querying meme or something mostly just so they can answer, and I never want to do that. Accordingly, I go too far the other way and keep any answers of mine basic, vague, and general. It's fine. Lorde knows I talk enough here. That claim from Friday was still rejected when I looked, and no email about it, either. It eventually got sent to me for tagging so I guess that'll be an unsolved mystery. But I've got all the answer I need - I didn't make a mistake.
I called the pharmacy a couple times and finally got through. FedEx had my meds for delivery on Friday! But didn't get around to them, so put them on the truck on Saturday. And then still didn't get around to them, so they'd hopefully be delivered today. The tracking number wouldn't work anymore, so if I don't get them by Tuesday, they'll just resend them. I guess.
Julian slept until 3 - the man is a sleep camel. I'm used to him taking Monday as a recovery day, so I just stayed with Lady Miss Friday and read while he watched Voyager. He was oddly reticent about his night last night but I'm trying not to get (too) paranoid. Phyllis called me and I surprised myself by answering. Mostly just chatting, nothing about conspiracy theories and very little expecting me to entertain. She promised to send my necklace and the Nimby book. My RPGs aren't important and I don't have room for them right now anyway. Importantly, she's happy with Mike. She finally has a healthy relationship. Her dad was a physically abusive drunk, my dad was emotionally abusive and controlling. I'm trying not to become him. There's that phrase somewhere about being feared or loved, and I've noticed recently that I sometimes go from sunshine, rainbows, and sparkles to Tasmanian Devil in the blink of an eye. More fuel for that anxiety over being a secretly terrible person. I kept reading after dark, but of course I wasn't willing to turn on the light, since Lady Miss Friday wouldn't like it. Instead, I turned on the moon globe I bought a while back. It was...not ideal. I eventually thought to use one of the burner phones for a flashlight, but none were charged. Some day, I will have a lamp on my nightstand. Until then, reading by the light of the moon it is.
