(no subject)
I wish I had anything good to concentrate on today, but I didn't get enough sleep last night (partly weather, which at 85 and humid made me keep the fan on and made it hard to get to sleep, and partly brain going "Hi there!" at 3:00 this morning for no apparent reason), and I spilled coffee down my front this morning, and it's hot and humid and overcast and there isn't enough breeze to make it less miserable out. At least it was cold coffee.
While I was awake at 3:00 anyway, I woke Snip up, and startled her enough that she smacked me in the eye. No claws, but she made contact with the actual eyeball, and it's not sure what it thinks about that. It doesn't hurt, and it doesn't look hurt, but it does feel swollen. This is not Snip's fault; it's entirely on me. But it's not improving my morning, either.
Discovering this morning that I forgot to plug my phone in last night sort of put the cherry on top of today. It's just going to be Monday, that's all.
Good thing: I managed to make more coffee and pour it into the cold-coffee carafe without pouring it anywhere else (like down the sink or down my front). And now I'll have cold coffee for tomorrow.
Also probably good thing: I rescheduled a "write my journal article for me" meeting I would have had this afternoon. This is the first time I've ever rescheduled a meeting because I couldn't stand the idea of having it today. Today I think I can face it tomorrow. (Also, today I can't stand the idea of putting on a presentable shirt for a Zoom meeting. I'm wearing a tank top that doubles as pajamas if it has to. Tomorrow is soon enough for a shirt with sleeves.)
Actually, other good thing: since the keyboard stand arrived on Friday evening, I've spent about an hour a day messing around with the keyboard, playing songs by ear. I should break out some actual music one of these days. Messing around with the keyboard is a thing that requires use of brain without use of computer, and activities like that are thin on the ground these days. I'm enjoying it even though I have no technique at all.
If I took the big cat carrier apart enough to get the door off it, I wouldn't have to keep arguing with the carrier door when I want to shut the room door to keep the air conditioning in. Another thing for The List.
