It actually went pretty well though, and I think overall it helped improve our working relationship anyway, which is something that hasn&#8217;t come as easily for me at the junior high.<\/p>\n<p>I got onto a little bit of a roll and didn&#8217;t take lunch until about an hour late, and then just grabbed some super cheap Wendy&#8217;s to take back to my office. Kevin came in for some help recovering files from an old laptop while I ate. Then I hit a brick wall after lunch and just wanted to sleep.<\/p>\n<p>Somehow I survived the afternoon, and dropped the girls off at karate on the way home. As I checked my mail, I happened to pick up a FedEx door tag up out of my front lawn by the street, and though it was completely blank and didn&#8217;t look like it was for me, something still drove me to look up the number. Sure enough, it was for me. I wish I could get those guys to ring my damn doorbell. It doesn&#8217;t do me any good to have a video doorbell if they never even get that close to the house before they turn and run.<\/p>\n<p>I warmed up some leftovers and had a pretty crummy dinner, then headed to Summer&#8217;s for the evening. A call in to FedEx proved useless, so I&#8217;ll have to figure out a way to get the door tag to stick on my garage or something in the morning.<\/p>\n<p><em>Why do I feel weird about accepting a free cheese dip after all that?<\/em><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Janie freaked out this morning when all of her desktop icons weren&#8217;t available on the new computer I set up for her [&hellip;]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_crdt_document":"","footnotes":""},"categories":[1],"tags":[45,27],"class_list":["post-2609","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-uncategorised","tag-anger-management","tag-work"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/gallopingcow.net\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/2609","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/gallopingcow.net\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/gallopingcow.net\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/gallopingcow.net\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/gallopingcow.net\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=2609"}],"version-history":[{"count":1,"href":"https:\/\/gallopingcow.net\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/2609\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":2610,"href":"https:\/\/gallopingcow.net\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/2609\/revisions\/2610"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/gallopingcow.net\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=2609"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/gallopingcow.net\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=2609"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/gallopingcow.net\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=2609"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
