One of the two times I ever did catch lightning in a shot
When one exists in Ohio in January, the arrival of a thunderstorm, complete with the large thunder and lightning, is kind of hard to process. This picture was not from yesterday, just looked all ominous and shit.
My body likes to yawn. Like all day. I can't even say the word without my person obediently doing said word. Crazy shit. I've yawned at least six times since I started writing this, and in the hopes of making it stop for a minute, I'm gonna stop talking about it. Damn!
The shoulder pain did not make for great sleeping the night before, so I'm sure that contributed to some of it. Coffee doesn't touch it, nor elevate my ambitions to get shit done, either.
Still eating Factor meals because they still keep sending reasonable and even really great deals, so I keep buying them. I can't fathom how their deals are sustainable (to them), so I'm just going to enjoy them whilst they're still around.
Still on my Elote almond kick ... I need to let go of that soon. I burned myself out on pork rinds and chip dip, though, so for now, it works to appease my need for crunchy, salty snax. I did pick up a six pack of Dr. Pepper Zero Sugar because the store was out of Diet Dr. Pepper. It's just not the same. Those six-pack bottles are NOT as carbonated as the singles, and the flavor of the Zero Sugar varietal is just off. Or maybe I'm just over regular Dr. Pepper and don't like it all that much. Who knows.
Made more Jamaica syrup last night - and again, did not take pictures or video. I need to order more Jamaica, and THEN maybe I'll muster up the courage to film it.
I am really liking the calendar thing, but I wish there were a way to incorporate my work tasks in there, just to get a TRUE representation. I could set them up, I suppose, as another group of tasks in the Google calendar, but damn. I kind of like what I do with the work stuff in Notion, so I probably won't.
I did not track every single thing I did yesterday. I did fail to carry out more than one stretching session because I was too busy exercising my mouth with yawning. See, I went to write that sentence, and I did it again ...
There's not a lot of profundity issuing forth from my brain.
I've got to work on my confidence level and communication skills. Pushing outside my comfort zone, going to have a meeting Monday with my boss to talk about random issues and whatnot because I can't expect good communication from anyone else if I, myself, don't learn how to do it in a better way. Gives me the weekend to make a complete list so I can be sure to cover all the things that need to be addressed.
It's not a terrifying kind of thing. It's just that we are a startup, and as such, things get kind of clusterfucky, even after a year, and I want us to be in the best shape possible so that we can absolutely rock the shit out of this year. There are a lot of moving pieces-parts, and this is more of a maintenance call than anything else.
Also will have to put a face on and look human for that call, since I don't think it would be really brilliant of me to ask for a meeting and then NOT have it be FACE to face! I'd almost rather fly out to Phoenix and have a sit down over beer than to do things over Zoom or Google Meet, but there will be plenty of time for in-person meetings when we move out there.
Meanwhile, back at the ranch, I have learned that I do NOT enjoy eating snax late at night before bed. It's just something to do because sitting still and doing absolutely nothing whilst watching television is not in my DNA.
I did get some new crochet hooks, and have printed out some more of the patterns for a "crochet-along" that I found last year ... What the holy fuck? It started in 21!!!!!! I've put it off longer than I thought I did. Anywho, I still don't have a clue what the finished product will look like, but I did go with some gorgeous Mardi Gras-inspired colors (Deep purple, green and gold hues), and if nothing else, it will keep me warm one day when it's all done. It is my goal to get this whole thing finished this year, and the time spent sitting in front of the television doing nothing seems like a fitting time to work on it.
I don't have anything else to talk about really. This was sort of all over the place, like my brain. She is what she is.
Happy Weekend!
