For part of my job I have to get information from people. People are hard to get information from. My boss and her boss came up with a plan that included meetings and accountability. It sounded like a good plan. I set up a meeting. I prepared for the meeting.

People who are supposed to give me information did not show up for the meeting. One of them was in the office 2 minutes before the meeting and I didn’t think to catch him and remind him (because the other person had engaged with the meeting planning and said he would work things out with this person), and when I went looking for him after the meeting was supposed to start, his office was dark and empty.

I have other work I should be doing but now I’m mad and don’t wanna do it.

I’ve had to start taking rage naps more and more often these days.

Husband is taking PTO next week since it needs used before the end of the year. I just had a MASSIVE spike of anxiety that we haven’t planned it out and we’re going to waste it. Like, anxiety spike stupidly out of proportion to situation for no particular reason. I have a sneaking suspicion this is more related to my bad sleep than it is the PTO :roll_eyes:

Saw a dress I liked that comes in my size, but not the print I liked.

I can never decide if Extreme Gender For Toddlers is like, hilarious? Or horrifying. Both. Both I think.

Like, what are folks who buy into this afraid of? I feel like I genuinely don’t understand.
Making their pre-verbal boys effeminate? Or are they afraid of breaking rules and being judged by other moms?

… we just don’t like it when boys benefit from design conveniences?

This is befuddling.

I bought super cute ankle boots. They hit at a weird spot on my foot so I have to send them back.

Cat made the big move tonight to our new home, which already has two dogs in it. Cat is Not Happy. I’ve never introduced an adult cat to a dog household before. The shih tzu is Very Excited, but not very polite.

I’ve had a book on hold foreeeeeeever (okay like four weeks) and I finished some other books and it’s still not available. Also I finished Get A Life Chloe Brown and Take A Hint Dani Brown but the third book does not seem to be out yet. I need to see what shenanigans Eve gets up to!

We walked to the community garden today, it was about 40 out. My nose runs when it’s cold out. Entire inside of mask completely drenched in snot. Two hours walking with a wet goopy mask plastered to face is very unpleasant.
