A day

[cosmolinguist]

I don't even know what to say about today.

I was too headachy to make our traditional Friday-night dinner with D, so he had to just do some easy food on his own. I'm grateful he could, but sad to miss our little ritual. With me being gone for four days and him and V gone all next week, it feels like I haven't spent enough time with them lately.

It was another busy demanding day at work (I got some stuff done which should feel good but also I found out Boss^3 has a much broader idea than I did of what I am expected to cover in this phase of an already-stressful project so I feel as swamped as ever) but at least it was the last one, of my twelve in a row? I told the others that I literally don't remember what a day without work is like. I'll find out tomorrow by going to my usual Saturday weightlifting class!

Well I say usual, I couldn't go last week and I can't go next week.

I figured out how to claim TOIL and I've asked for Thursday and Friday off next week, so I can be a little more present for the sad dog who by that time will have reached the heights of "they're still not home??" because his favorite human and the chief/concierge human that he's used to going to when he wants things will still be gone (they leave Monday).

That's a lot!

May your time alone be full of dog love and rest.

Yay for weightlifting and TOIL.

On the plus side, dinner helped with your headache and you got surprise snuggles!

The day definitely ended a lot better than it started. :)
