Well, here it is Thursday. How fast this week is flying by. Weather wise, we went from sunny mildly temp days to cold and rainy. We did get a layer of sleet and snow over night, but just a glazing. Right now we have a drizzle, not heavy enough to see, but heavy enough so Howie comes back in the house smelling like a wet dog.
As I expected, yesterday I didn't do much of anything except play with Howie. I spent some time on Social Media, mostly Threads and Bluesky. Because I follow the same people on both apps, there's a lot of repetition.
My first editor gets The Body on the Lawn today. I'm excited.
I also get to work today. While the weather outside is not horrifically shitty, it is crappy, but not crappy enough for me to take a personal day. Our store's inventory was today. In the past, supervisors and managers were forced to stay until the initial figures came back, that no longer happens. Where for me inventory meant a 12 - 14 hour day, it's now completed in around 6 hours. One reason to go to work today is snacky food. As I've said many times before, I'm a grazer, and because they bring in snacks, inventory day is a good day to graze.
So far, Howie has gotten three of the four toys I bought for him. Ropey Fox is a little dirty, but otherwise still healthy. Wally Whale is fine as well. However, Mr. Moose has lost both his squeaker and his stuffing. He has no interest in eating the stuffing, but he does love to leave it lying around.
Oh, if only they would take out Mango Mussolini!
ReplyDeleteWar would not explode, of course. But it would be soooo sweet!
I don't know if Couch F*cker would like to have Elmo as president, though....
The whole Gaza thing is outrageous, of course. And the world would shake. Cheeto said that to sound like a 'dealmaker'. We all know it's a grift.
And Howie! Doggies LOOOOVE their toys until they are literally nothing.
XOXO
I understand Vance was bought and paid for by Peter Thiel, and Thiel and Elonia are billionaire besties.
DeleteSophie does the same thing with toys. She decimates them to get the squeakers out and leaves all the stuffing laying around.
ReplyDeleteI don't think Trump or Netanyahu want to toy around with countries like Iran Iraq Sudan Egypt and the like.because if they joined forces they will level everything in their path. Hell they could probably wipe out Israel in a week. Although if one of the wanted to drop a surprise on the White House ....I wouldn't be upset.
His Gaza announcement did take a lot of people by surprise, and he does have a touch of dementia.
DeleteI've been offline for about 10 days (the electrician is here trying to put my nightmare electrical work right) so it was exciting to hear about your book going to the editor!
ReplyDeleteI feel bad for you and your electrical nightmare. And this book? It's different. I like it, but then I like every new book that comes out.
DeleteHowie is a big baby! He's really grown. George used to love spreading stuffing everywhere. Now that he's a grown up dog, I miss some of his puppy antics. Some, NOT all!
ReplyDeleteHe is a big baby, and no doubt as spoiled as George. And you're right about some of the puppy stuff, it's never fun being a chew toy.
DeletePeople would be too busy partying in the streets! Elonia & the VICE prez would have to arm wrestle for the top job.
ReplyDeleteI was told today at work there are protests popping up all over the country. This is not what they want at all.
DeleteHello Howie!! Good luck with the editor. Hope all goes well and also hope you got some good snacks.
ReplyDeleteHowie is a hoot. They had fried chicken, so it was more of a meal than snacks, still, fried chicken is good.
