dchenesNothing like a cardiac workout via the internet. I went to re-order contact lenses just now, since this morning I managed to fling my next-to-last left lens off somewhere and couldn't find it again. So, go to the web site and hit the re-order button, and get a cart with 19 items totaling $4000? Not right. Can't change it, either. VERY not right. Email customer service, find out it's a known bug (in Safari; I'm using Firefox, but never mind) and they're working on it, get an abject apology and an offer to place the order I actually want via live chat. Do that (including uploading non-expired Rx and new credit card info), get free expedited shipping for my trouble, and now all I have to do is slow my heart rate down again and not lose my left lens before Monday. Isn't technology wonderful, except when it isn't?
Chickened out on the leopard print headband, but wearing the skirt today. Maybe I'll get a headband for next year. Fortunately it's still warmish out today, so wearing a skirt isn't a horrible idea.
Something's about to hit the fan for a faculty member the students have been complaining about for years. Apparently he finally crossed a line he should have known better than to come near in the first place. I'm curious to find out what will happen to the course he's directing, if it's determined that he should be removed from the teaching environment. (He should, in my opinion, but my opinion doesn't count.)
I got cortisone shots on September 29. As of this morning, they're wearing off. My left shoulder is sore again, but it still has mobility that doesn't hurt. The lack of mobility is the real quality-of-life issue, so if that starts going away again, I'll see what can be done about it. I don't care so much about pain; that, I can deal with.
Today being Friday is good. Yesterday was already only Thursday; I don't know where the week went, but I don't know why yesterday wasn't the end of it. Just because I took last Friday off, apparently now my internal week calendar thinks a work week should only be four days. It's going to get all confused in two weeks when we have Wednesday off and get a pair of two-day weeks. But never mind, because today is Friday, and Friday is good. And I recorded the football game last night, so now that I know how it came out, I can watch it tonight and enjoy it.
