10/10

All of my stuff from SF arrived today. Abel is moved out of the tiny room which is, as of a few hours ago, my Office. I have a dinky monitor set up, but a monitor nonetheless. I have a shabby desk that we found 3 years ago on the side of the street, but it's a big solid surface and Meyers Clean Day (tm) makes good as new.. And then I have my fancy pants chair and keyboard from work mmmmhmmm. I don't have that little cushion pad for the keyboard, but I need it, because my wrists do not rest well without it. Also I think the floor is slanted because my chair sort of rolls. But this is all such an upgrade. Even at Albion, I was at that desk that I made too tall and then too small on that little lad wooden chair. I have been working at a macbook without any keyboard or mouse for 6 months and one week. I am very excited to have my battle station back.

Also excited to keep the clutter of coffee mugs and spoon-streaked yogurt bowls somewhere that's not my bedroom. work / life, baby

As an aside, and also frustrating because I can't buy new light bulbs for this very harsh light, is that both my debit card and my credit card are cancelled. I have my CC with me, but there were charges to gas stations and a Best Buy and Boost Mobiles in SF. I tried to get a bagel this morning from Rockstar and they only accept cards bc of COVID so I got another migas taco.

My mom today told me that I should probably get a physical because I'm getting old (but also still would probably not think to get a physical if my mom had not recommended it, which -- uh --- whoops), and I think it is good timing, because those papa joe's migas tacos are definitely some heart attack tacos.

AND the 'office' is on the other end of the house from the bedrooms so I can clack away AND be courteous about it AND I can have Private Phone Calls too.
