It's been so much of a Monday, it almost feels like it should be Tuesday by now. But I'm headed off to bed, so that will happen in a few hours here anyway. And somehow it is also more than halfway through November. *squints at calendar* Doing less Japanese than I should be doing.
Fussing around with the architect profession now on Sims 3, thinking about playing with the gardening dynamic after this. It is supposed to rain a lot tonight again and be better tomorrow, then turn very cold. The furnace is out at the office - after being asked to start turning it on to 'comfortable' for visitors and so you're not in a coat all the time... up from 'bearable with a coat' for me, which is where I had it on - so *sigh* now I'll be putting on my double thermal layers and fuzzy socks again until they get someone to get it fixed. I bought some malted milk to put in my hot tea.
I've reached that two month review point, but now with working through Thanksgiving I know we won't have any time to discuss vacation days and then I was overhearing that it isn't two months, it's four - two for a half day, and four for a full day. *blink* But I am still liking the basic job, getting things done, keeping track of things, getting things we need and getting the bills paid etc. And having my own bills paid helps so much. I've had to make a lot of calls to electricians and plumbers lately, and that has had me saying 'oh my introvert' a little as I take a few minutes and regather myself and call the next one. But I'm getting through it, and there isn't anyone there to ask me why I'm taking three minutes before calling another one... do what you do etc.
apropos of nothing, tried the ginger and sesame flavor Halo seaweed snacks today and it is good - I usually eat that with rice as a sort of 'pseudo' sushi snack. So, I'll have to make some 'sushi' rice to eat with some of it soon, and the sweet-and-spicy chili tuna packet bought with the same intention. I also bought two cans of brown sugar boba tea but haven't cracked into one yet.
And what was the reason for these strange foods? Went shopping with someone else and 'really didn't need anything'...a pizza, cheese, pepperoni and some canned vegetables were all that was on our list - but I ended up getting a few other things as well, and a birthday present, and that is how you spend money that you don't really need to *sigh*. Although I did have a cat brush on the list, didn't think I'd find one, did - and have been using it on our little elderly cat because she has trouble grooming herself now AND likes to lie out in leaves and gravel. So often, she still has bits of stuff stuck to her fur when she comes to sleep in my lap. It's getting colder now, so if I'm going to be sat on so often I thought I'd get the little soft plastic brush and put it somewhere I could reach it from my chair.
