Just fast

Too late to write much. Got up late, around 12:00. Breakfast, coffee.

Then used the new pump an changed the water in the turtle tank. It works great! I'm very glad I got it. The tank is much better, though I should change the water again soon, and the turtle seems happier.

Started calling HP about the computer, hung up out of nervousness. I am not goo with phone calls. Maybe I should email or live chat.

mashfanficchick called and told me ze was going to watch a Purim spiel that was being put on by people ze knows and I should come over and watch with zer, and then we'd watch a taped SNL that has one of the stars of Heated Rivalry hosting. And buy alcohol at the liquor store on the way because you are supposed to get drunk for Purim.

So I showered and dressed an headed over. I bought a bottle of Kikkoman plum wine from the liquor store and took out money at the bank.

We called in sushi for dinner, and had a struggle getting the Zoom to play on zer laptop but finally did and cast it to the TV and watched. I got quite drunk on two large glasses of plum wine, and ze had Chambord.

Then I Teamed the FWiB on my phone. That was nice as always.

Ze put on the SNL episode, which was, well, to be honest, not great. We alternated watching with putting it on pause and talking, and by the time it was over it was quite late.

We talked awhile longer, then I Ubered home, and fed the pets and started here.

Bed very soon!

Couldn't have my meeting tonight

Having gotten to bed last night at 4:30 am, I tried to sleep late but kept waking up.

Finally I woke up at 11:30, and couldn't get back to sleep at all, so fonally at 12:30 I got up and had breakfast and coffee.

I changed the turtle tank water again, this time I got almost all of it out and it looks much much better. I love that little pump.

That was about the only good thing about the day though. At 7:00 I tried to team the FWiB. It did not work. I finally had to use my phone while trying to get the Teams to load on the computer. We gave up finally and just used the phone til 8:00.

Then I tried to get Zoom going for my meeting. It was a nightmare. Everything went wrong. At 9:00 I gave up as a useless attempt. So no meeting for M tonight which I feel very badly about.

I checked my phone for email and discovered that the replacement Funko Pop Stephen Colbert that I ordered from Ebay had been delivered. So I went to collect it. Not there. I am hoping like the Thriftbook package on Sunday, it'll turn up tomorrow, but I'm not sanguine about it.

I called the Kid, she didn't answer so I texted her. We'll see if she calls. We have to make plans for getting together with RK, he's going to bring some boxes over to the storage unit from my apartment for the Kid.

Then I called mashfanficchick and we talked for awhile which made me feel better. So that's good.

Then it was pet feeding time, and I fed the pets and have been fighting with the computer.

Gratitude List:

1. The FWiB.

2. Clean turtle tank.

3. My meetings even when I can't get to them.

4. RK said he could help with the boxes.
