#gettingittogether Mail Backlog Day One: Have successfully weeded out junk mail and sorted remaining mail for further review. Seven years' worth of dust and grime clinging to the oldest of mail only reinforces how desperately my office needs #cleaning 🤢

AHOY THERE! WE'VE FORMALLY CODIFIED OUR FLEET VESSEL REPLACEMENT PHILOSOPHY

They just now noticed?

Finally #gettingittogether and #cleaning my office. First step is getting rid of the literal decades+ worth of paper mail I've been carting around with me. Pregamed tonight by gathering it up into the same place. Tomorrow will be spent sorting and organizing it.

One of my favorite things is to turn around in my office and find one my cats snoozing on the spare chair for who knows how long. It's warming knowing they just want to be with me, even if they can't be on top of me. #catsarethebest

This is pretty much me nonstop these days.

Wellness farms. You know...you get to take a train ride and are forced to stay somewhere you don't want to be, being forced into a treatment you don't want to have, and the end result when you refuse is.............

Doubling up on my allergy meds again today. It's got my skin all itchy, and I'm feeling anxious. I hate this time of year #wtfpollen #allergies

Taking a break from the madness #greekmythology #medusa #historyhit #documentaries

Me: So I took some extra meds for my allergies. It's working, but now I'm a little lightheaded. Roommate: So I should probably drive you today? Me: I'm just a little lightheaded it's no big deal. Roommate: . . . Me: . . . I probably shouldn't be making judgement calls today.

Thank goodness for being able to occasionally double-dose my allergy meds. Only way I'm functioning today. #wtfpollen #allergies

Step One: Ban all the things that we have science-backed evidence improves children's health. Step Two: Cease collecting data as soon as we see proof of health declines and upticks in suicide. Step Three: Declare that our children are now healthier than the rest of the world, "based on the data".

Daughter: I got three books at the library for $3. Me: Nice! What are they? Daughter: Banned books on clearance. Me: Ah yes, the First Amendment discount.

Oh this is going to be good

The struggle is real.

So much better

I feel this so hard. The allergies, I mean.

I learned something new about myself today. So far it's extremely mild, almost like I got a thin layer of glue on my fingers. Not itchy or painful. Just the first layer of skin peeling off. #butternutsquash

This week has been pretty shit considering *fails wildly at everything* but it did also bring to me the delight of watching a colleague and a *job candidate * explain to my department chair what the Omegaverse is.
