grammarwomanI completely oopsed on posting the past few days, with stuff and life and things.
So have a list of random and sundry good things!
1. Tonight's dinner was hot dogs and mac'n'cheese (one of the Emperor's favorites), with sides of canned chili and leftover fries and onion rings. I made myself a hot dog with chili, cheese, and onion rings, and it was trashily delicious.
2. At long (LONG) last, I think I've conquered this project at work that has been driving me around the bend. It involves mapping a hierarchical series of categories and items to an Excel file, with recursion to handle a variable amount of nesting. My brain is resistant to that kind of looping, so trying to get the logic to work for it has been challenging. I am so relieved to have a sample file to send off for approval.
3. I was watching a VVC streaming show the other day, andfan_eunice's Hoping Machine came on. From across the room, the Emperor asks "Are you watching that Harry Potter vid again?" It's been months since we've been through his playlist of favorites, and yet he can still ID the vid by a few bars of music. :D
4. My visit to the main company office has been scheduled for the second week of October, from Monday evening to Friday afternoon. It will be a great opportunity to get some face time with my team members and to enjoy a hotel room all by myself. I'll miss my sweetheart boys and dog, and I'm certain they'll really miss me. It will be a useful reminder to my husband of how much Emperor wrangling I do.
5. Festivids is coming! The anticipation is delightful; it's in the execution where I get unhinged.
6. I might actually get to bed at a reasonable time tonight - so, seeya!

We make life so easy for our menfolk as we keep the household running, don't we? Sometimes I feel guilty about sitting on my duff while my husband cleans up the kitchen, and then I remember that I've already put in my time making breakfast/packing lunches/letting the dog in and out three times in ten minutes/driving the Emperor to school/picking him up/making dinner/supervising homework. What would they do without us?
