That sounds unbelievably painful.
At the beginning of the pandemic, the hinge on our toilet seat snapped off. We bought a new toilet seat.
This morning, the hinge on THAT toilet seat snapped off.
I swear neither of us are abusing the toilet! Though, well, it’s getting a lot more use than before with both of us WFH, I suppose.
Still, shouldn’t a toilet seat last more than 6-7 months?
Sigh. Boyfriend ordered a new one. This is annoying. Now we have to be super careful that it’s seated properly after use so one of the cats doesn’t go for a little midnight swim. (Girl Kitty is SUPER into the toilet and has fallen in a couple times.)

I dreamed that I was waiting to find out if I was going to be arrested and go to jail. Why, brain?

No sleep and high anxiety. What happened to my nice relaxed life? I guess I got to enjoy it for a year and a half…

I’m crabby about everything work-related today.
I’m crabby that I have to write a self-evaluation in these times.
I’m crabby at the number of places where I have to quantify what I have worked on every day (we have a metrics spreadsheet, we have to fill out a timesheet listing projects and specific tasks, and now we have to write a weekly report describing our “big wins for the week” as well as listing out everything we did and what we have coming up.
I’m crabby that I asked questions about a task a week ago, never got an answer, and just now got an email about “why isn’t this done?” BECAUSE YOU DIDN’T TELL ME WHICH FILES NEED THIS DONE YOU SENT A VAGUE REQUEST WITH NO DETAILS.
Remind me how to be grateful that these fuckers have deigned to not shitcan me yet?

The first-aid kit in my office is apparently for tall people. I thought I was going to have to ask for help getting it open.

We had this issue too.
I was the designated first aid provider in my office (company paid for CPR training, etc).
I could not reach the first aid kit, or AED, without climbing onto a cabinet.

More work gripes - I have to cover all of my vacationing co-worker’s meetings this week and there are SO many. I had to last week too but most got cancelled last minute so it wasn’t as big of a deal.
Also, in every freaking standup I have to hear about people’s family celebrations where they gathered in groups, GAHHHHHH.

I was using the cat on my lap as an excuse to not go do things but the cat moved. Rude.

This gave me a flashback! I used to schedule my time off adjacent to my boss’s time off so I could maximize my boss-free time!

I think she’s done for the year, but I could be wrong. We actually don’t intersect much, but we have two meetings together tomorrow and in trying to prep for them…

Oh no. Roofers next door. About 10’ from the wall my baby’s crib is on. I am dreading nap time for the next couple days…

A crown fell off last night, and the only dentist who would even consider me of current record (and that’s a stretch) isn’t open until Wednesday. Who knows when I’ll get in, and there is a chance this won’t be an easy reattachment. 
(It’s only a tiny complaint because: so far no pain, I still have the crown, and I can eat food on the softer end of the spectrum.)

I went to the dollar store to see if they had bay leaves but instead I bought two small bags of chips, red vines, and mint patties and I ate at least half of all of those things at once and now I don’t feel good.
I WONDER WHY

I would have done the same thing
