Friday levity: We Didn't Start The Fire (1990-2022 Version) [PHOTOS]



6 glorious hours of sleep.

The computer lab got its carpets cleaned yesterday. 

The carpet cleaners told us what we already know: we need a new carpet. The ratty torn carpet looks much better after shampooing. However, the computer lab smells like cleaning product and I still don't want to linger here, no matter how much better my computer options are than at home. 

Anyway, last night, I was home. It was much easier to go to bed at a semi reasonable hour.

This morning I still did not get floor or fridge cleaned.

The cat did get a lot of cat furniture time.

Also a number of Ring of Fire geographical features or their human spokes tweeters have just been having a whole lot of fun on Twitter. Think of it as a palate cleanse after the vitriol of the debt ceiling, about which we have at least a temporary reprieve. 

Now if only we could get on with indicting the former president for some of his many high crimes and misdemeanors and / or getting someone else on the presidential campaign short list.

Holy Cow. Almost 9 hours of sleep. The extravagant luxury of going back to bed and not even trying to do anything after 5.9 hours of sleep. Going to bed at a reasonable hour because of not wanting to compute in the computer lab with no AC helped.  I decided I needed to get up and eat a real breakfast after a dream involving my certainty that I needed to take a shower in a tiny restroom near a big event of some kind and then enjoying a lot of food that I found tasty and it was not clear whether others realized it was available. I probably can go all kinds of places with that. Computer lab has AC. Room where digital equity team works does not. There is some kind of switching mystery that not even one of the very wise SHA HVAC experts can solve. Nice to see the computer lab space in use. And for exercise I will ride under desk bike to nowhere for awhile at an hour too late to be a good idea. Also I MUST scrub floor and wrangle refrigerator life forms. Count how many days I say that be...

About six hours of sleep. I should have gone back to bed. CPAP is a little bit of a workout but I think that will settle down. Mom's tree after all the presents were unwrapped Christmas with the fam went brilliantly.  First there was a chauffeur schedule that left me time to talk to Mom about latest non-locating of my brother while nephew fetched his parents. We did snack food and did not even attempt anything complex in Mom's "one-butt kitchen" Little Sister brought Little Smokies, one pan in a sauce I did not expect to tolerate made of commercial BBQ sauce and grape jelly. Little sister brought rolls and fruit salad. I brought crackers, cream cheese, beet chips and celery the latter of which I think I was the only one eating. So the rest of the bunch gets sauted and frozen for soup.  I brought yams to microwave if anyone wanted but kitchen logistics clobbered that. And we finished with mandarins and no one even wanted cookies and ice cream. Mostly I am SO GLAD Mom d...
