I took three little tadpoles to Oakland with me this morning and set them up in the windowsill. It turned out quite nice with all of the duckweed growing in the top. I’m pretty happy with it. That’s about where productivity stopped.

I spent the rest of the morning parked in the office playing This War of Mine on my phone until it was time to meet Jason and Allen at Ruby Tuesday for a $5 salad bar. Aaron and Stephanie came in shortly after I got there and ate across the aisle from us.

The afternoon was spent running between my buildings after a couple problems popped up at Oakland. Then I went to my parents’ house for some chow mein that Mom cooked up.

Back home, Aaron and another friend of his joined me for some PUBG until bed. I was rocking suppressors all night, but we still never really got very far.

I miss Strawberry Passion Awareness…

We’re testing at both of my buildings all week long. I’m assigned to Oakland, so I’m having to spend all morning there to support just a few kids per hour. It’s super ridiculous.

I never heard from anyone about lunch, so I just went home and ate some leftovers with a grilled cheese. Then I spent the afternoon taking care of the junior high.

Mom made bánh mì for dinner, then I stopped by to visit with Summer for a minute before heading home. I cleaned out a tiny betta tank so I could take a couple tadpoles to Oakland in the morning, then played some PUBG with Aaron and Jack until bedtime.

I woke up in Chris Brown’s body.

I woke up pretty early this morning with the sun pouring in. Summer made breakfast, then we scuttled on to Conway for a bit of shopping before the movie. We only really picked anything up at Target before heading to the theater, but I finally got a new beach towel.

Infinity War was an amazing movie, so I don’t know how we’ll make it over a year to the next installment. I guess Ant Man and the Wasp and Captain Marvel will have to do. I’m glad I avoided trailers and went in to mostly surprises. Now I can go back and catch up on all of that stuff after the fact.

Sam’s was closed by the time we got out, so we had to skip that. We headed home, I dropped Noah off at his Dad’s, took the girls to their place, then came home to some laundry. I tried to make some macaroni and cheese, but bugs got into the noodles and I ended up making spaghetti and cheese instead. It went okay. Tomorrow I’m going to try baking the leftovers to see how that adds to the flavor.

Let’s talk about this plan of yours. I think it’s good, except it sucks. So let me do the plan, and that way, it might be really good.

I slept in pretty late today and eventually got up for some leftover breakfast from a week ago. Summer was at a quiz bowl event and brought home the junior high Coach of the Month plaque. I started to clean up one of my 55-gallon fish tanks but didn’t get super far before needing some help to move it outside. A project for another day, I suppose.

I went to Summer’s in the evening for dinner, then played some made-up games with the kids before bed. We’ve got Infinity War tomorrow afternoon, and it looks like we’ve got some shopping to do there as well.

This doesn’t make any sense!

I got around a little earlier than usual this morning, so I had an omelette for breakfast before going in to work. Once there, I helped Ryan and Gary run a line on one of Jason’s campuses. Then I helped Zach move a case full of Chromebooks from Oakland to Crawford. That pretty well got us to lunch at Buffalo Wild Wings.

I spent the afternoon by myself between my buildings wrapping up whatever work orders I had gotten through the day. After work I came home and tried to find something to clean or organize, but I didn’t get too much done before Summer came over. Julie stopped in to get a flash drive from me, and then Summer and I watched The Office until bedtime.

Rhymes with Parnold Schporzenegger.

I spent all day at the junior high. I never really heard from anyone else either, so I had lunch with the girls in the library. Then in the afternoon I traced back some lines in the ceiling that run down the wall and under the ground to the library shelves so I can replace them later.

After work, I came straight home and troubleshot some network stuff. It seems today it’s my router that wants to cause trouble and slow things down. Dad emailed and said Judy emailed him asking for a letter of recommendation for a grant she’s applying for, so I called and chatted with him for a bit.

Eventually a few rounds of the guys came on and I played some PUBG, Overwatch, then some more PUBG before bed.

And I’m talking to myself at night because I can’t forget.

Today was “Administrative Professionals” day because everyone wants their own holiday. I hate that people can’t just always be appreciative. I also hate celebrating things, so maybe I’m biased. We took Heather to Brangus for lunch and pitched in for a massage gift card, as though that settles things. I guess it’s a nice gesture, but having holidays for it just makes it feel lessened.

After work, I went to pick Eaddie up from chess club so Summer could start on dinner a little earlier. We had grilled chicken thighs, mershed perderder, and salads, then watched an episode of The Office. I made it home early, but spent the evening toying with the new Gmail. I don’t love it. Why do they keep making things bigger?

Over-certified and under-qualified.

I’ve been trying to play some app challenges by Amazon. Today it was Toy Party for three bucks. I never did get my $7 credit for Seekers Notes for some reason. I guess I’ll have to contact them to find out why, but there doesn’t seem to be an easy way to do that.

The day went by pretty quickly. I got to spend some time in the EAST Lab’s domain controller so I can rebuild it on a better foundation. That was fun and educational. Lunch was just Dale and me at Taco Bell, so it was light and fast.

I ate some leftovers for dinner when I got home, then waited until the guys got on to play some PUBG until bedtime.

Hear that? Me neither.
