it's the same desire to feel the fire

And now sleeping brain is back to "being dumped" and "on the subway without a mask" and "being dumped while on the subway not wearing a mask".

For fuck sake, brain.

On the plus side I was taking the subway to visit my Guelph peeps, so that part was nice. They were kind enough to lend me a bathrobe because I forgot to wear pants.

To be fair, the possibility of forgetting to wear pants when I leave the house is becoming less far-fetched by the day.

They offered overtime to my team this week and that doesn't happen very often so I'm grabbing all the hours I can. I am exhausted. Also it means I haven't had time to do any writing or anything else. It's been work, grab dinner, do dishes, try to do at least one household chore and then fall into bed. I have vacation at the end of the month, so if I can power through the next couple of weeks I get a break.

I'm planning on spending this vacation time writing, so it will be kinda like being at work but without the timesheets.

Our "get the living room sorted" project hit a major snag because our cheap IKEA shelves didn't survive transplanting very well. IKEA loves proprietary screws that require a weird size of allan key and are made out of butter so they shred on contact. So now everything is piled on the dining table while we wait for the new screws we ordered to show up in the mail.

If it doesn't rain tomorrow maybe I'll patch up the front steps. And the battle against entropy continues. This entry was originally posted at https://the-siobhan.dreamwidth.org/542056.html. There are
