Pagey, good morning!  I'm good. The usual sweet and innocent. 

Any updates on the new job?

Well, yesterday was an okay day, but I had to call in sick this morning because of a sudden cold that appeared out of nowhere. 

Currently drinking some peppermint tea to soothe my throat.

Sorry to hear that, bud.  Hope you feel better soon.

Sat on my lawn tractor and cried today. I was in the paddock near Sky's grave, and realized she must have eaten dandelions, because I don't remember seeing any in the paddock before this spring, and a wave of sadness hit me so hard I couldn't move. I miss her so much... I think we were co-dependent. I needed her as much as she needed me. I'm okay now... maybe that's the worst of it over....

Hope y'all are having great days or evenings... or sleeps.

I'm glad you're ok.  For the record, I wouldn't have called you co-dependent. More like 'partners-in-ride'.

Hey Nickypooh  It was a tiring and stressful day... The countdown to the end of the semester has begun: 3 more weeks!

I've finally posted my research mémoire online last night, well more like this morning as it was past 3am. I'm not totally happy with what I did (the subject was imposed to me "teaching mathematics through a game" when I would have rather had children literature) but at least it's done and I don't want to hear about it until the end of the month at least!. I had a physics paper to post online too but due to a bug at the last moment I had to send it by email to the teacher. Hopefully she'll accept it... And this morning it was my oral exam in PE which I'm pretty confident about so there's that. I finally managed to have some lunch around 2.30pm then took a much needed nap or I would have collapsed (I can't function with only 4 hours of sleep like I used to). 

Tomorrow is a regular day with 3 hours of maths and 3 hours of French. Then a 5 days weekend! Woohoo! Forecast is for sun and 20°C so maybe I'll go see the beach

What about you? Any shenanigans lately?

With Mondays like this, who needs enemies?  Good luck on your exam (if I say 'oral', the pervs will think something entirely different ).

I did have my fair share of stress. The software we use for sales apparently got a bug last week, and now the module for 'Budgets' won't work properly. The guy who sold us said software offers tech support. He was called, and tried fixing the problem. But instead, deleted the database with the sales from April 25th til 30th. Last Wednesday, I spent most of the day redoing the receipts. He tried again on Friday, I think. On Saturday, I found out... he did it again! But this time, he also deleted May 1st, 2nd, and 3rd. That was infuriating!  Once again, I have to redo the sales on the software. I expect to finish by tomorrow. And for him to stop messing around.

Foreigners?  Sorry to disappoint you (not at all ), but they're actually Imperial citizens. And part of the Resistance. 🫡

Propaganda. They're clearly Dominicans posing as Texans.

Statement from the Dominican Embassy:

"We do not subscribe to the Ministry of [redacted]'s allegations of a certain group being identified as Dominicans. It's obviously fake news. These individuals are clearly more Texan than cowboys".
