Tiny Complaints

Things that are true:

  1. I only like grey. Colours are for wimps.
  2. Squee! Rainbows! Let me fill every room of my house with rainbows!

I contain multitudes.

Once upon a time I took painkillers and couldn’t figure out how to peel an egg but I’m hungry the end.

Now I have a painkiller hangover. My head hurts. The rest of me, however, is the best it’s been in weeks. I’ll take it.

Please tell me that’s not an autocorrect and you actually have a composter that looks like a Dalek? Because, uh, I think we need one of those.

I was in my daily standup and Girl Kitty was blissfully rolling around in the sunshine on top of their shorter kitty tree. Then Boy Kitty jumped on her out of nowhere and she started hissing and kicking his ass. There was more hissing, and yowling, and meanwhile I’m trying to talk intelligently about my project.

I swear my cats always act up when I’m on a Zoom call.

My baby decided to be a sleep anarchist. Worse, this possibly means she is NOT tolerating dairy, so I do not get to go back to eating it yet.

Good lord, I’m on a mandatory “virtual happy hour” meeting and one of my co-workers (who’s in LA where you can get a covid test for any reason, she has no symptoms but someone in her building had it) is going on and on in detail about getting stuff jammed up her sinuses and ARGH. I do not want to hear this!

ETA: Now someone who’s in FL is talking about how no one in her town is socially distancing or wearing masks at all, and how everyone’s coughing everywhere, and another said she’s so excited about her hair appointment. I am freaking out and honestly might have to step out of it.

This is not a tiny complaint. I’m so sorry.

I was emailed someone else’s divorce papers because they think my email is theirs.

My complaint is more that I shouldn’t troll them than the part where I’ve been getting their tax returns, flight and hotel reservations, car maintenance schedules, etc for the past 6 years. Though, I wonder who makes the money. She’s got some nice stuff, and the same name as me, which is inherently hot.

I would be just as ok with that as the reality. I get invited to the Grace Hopper awards every year. I can’t convince them that I’m not a lady. It makes me wonder if this is a Ron Swanson getting woman of the year scenario.

It’s a good thing my friends here at OMD are rockstars as far as supporting each other’s mental health struggles, because mine have been really hard lately and the IRL person I live with couldn’t be less empathetic.

TV and TC in one.
