Sheltering in Place

Ginkgo leaves turning yellow now. My tree is the slowest around here it seems. Not too cold this morning. Nice view of Orion over the trees.

Ah ginkgo trees. Pretty but messy. I prefer the old term for them - maidenhair trees (look at the leaves and you'll see it).

I also have a CHSA Zoom meeting today.

They're only messy if you have a female. And the fruit reeks. There's a huge one on the other side of the Art building, and it's female. There's an enormous male tree in the atrium of Sweeney hall. It goes all the way up to the fifth floor.

Ginkgoes have been around since the Jurassic by the way.

Ginkgoes have been around since the Jurassic by the way.

They were discovered by a T-Rex named Aaron.

Never mind me...

Why would we start minding you this late in the game? 

643: I think I have an extra teleconference today - must double check. Then I have a Wells Fargo appt for my mom that might be complicated. Lots to do there.

[King Bob]

Thursday's one of my going late to the office days, so I got to practice some music and paint before work. Almost finished with a new painting and I think turning out well. Have to check in bright sunlight this afternoon.

Thursday? You mean Tuesday? Because it’s hump day.

Hump day has no meaning to me now because my work week isn’t M-F anymore. Not sure when my hump is.

644: I need to post a KFM article first thing. Then make breakfast for my mom, then a Telemeet devising last month’s YMAA progress for the whole team, then take my mom to her mansplaining dentist and do her grocery shopping, then scurry home for a phoner with the Cobra Kai creators, then walk Yuki, then prep for the Thor’s day Telemeet barrage. Big day, lots of gear shifts.

[King Bob]

Actually i think i mean to say Tuesday and Thursday, since those are my late days. Although it could be dementia.

[Drunk Monk]

First thing done and I can go back to sleep for an hour. 

Or I can surf the web... yay.

Or I can prep for the ‘looking back’ teleconference. 

Too many options for a usedtoBhump day...

[Drunk Monk]

Although it could be dementia.

Can't blame drugs anymore, huh? Well, there's always the damage done.

Eat more ginkgo. 

I didn't go back to sleep but instead prepped for my meeting, which starts in 2 min. At least, it was nice to think I had the option.

[King Bob]

WEDNESDAY today. One of my longer days. Now that all the graduating BFA students have submitted their work, I've got some file management stuff to work on and start thinking about making a database for it. Plus my daily trip to the library on my break.

Good one tg

645:Thor’s Telemeets. Writing. Kung Fu. High priority = Xmas shopping.

Maybe it’s the seasonal stress but I’m dealing with bursts of stress, depression, anxiety and anger..

Grrr.

My mother has accused me of manipulating her in regards our upcoming Christmas gathering. The only problem is I haven't talked to my mother since Thanksgiving. Word of my manipulations came via my sister.
