Jan. 11th, 2021 10:38 amAll I can say is, get me through tomorrow and I might survive this week. Tomorrow I have the Curriculum Committee followed by a search committee meeting and I'm tired of all of the above. And the JDE article came back unsubmitted again with another six nitpicking formatting errors they want fixed in both the blinded and unblinded versions. ARGH. Not sure whether I should resubmit them while playing Ghoultown, which is my "I'll do it, but I won't like it" music, or Wardruna, which is my "I'll do it, but you won't like it" music.
BUT, the weekend was pretty good. I went grocery shopping for the first time in two weeks, and now not only is there food in the fridge, but I'm almost spoiled for choice of food in the fridge. And I satisfied the craving for beans and greens by making chickpea, potato, paneer, and Swiss chard tikka masala with a jar of TJ's masala sauce. So it's got beans and greens in it, and I used up the almost-elderly potatoes. And I have lunch for the entire work week if I so desire (or at least I have five pint jars of vegetarian tikka masala, anyway).
Lily scared me, because she didn't particularly want any chicken yesterday. This is after having yarfed up her breakfast (but not her dinner) on Saturday and her breakfast yesterday. But it seems to have been a passing thing, because she's kept her breakfast where it belongs this morning. And she rejoined the Clean Plate Club last night. At least she gets to eat her dinner in however many installments she wants these days, because Quirk either doesn't want it or doesn't know where it is.
I could use some brain candy, preferably of the book variety, and absolutely preferably of the actual physical book variety. I'm sorely tempted to take a personal day sometime soon expressly to go to the bookstore in the middle of the day sometime in the middle of a week.
