Y13 D317

Yesterday was major ups and downs. Not like little swings either. I was doing really well or really shitty depending on the time of day. My class, well one person in particular, didn't make this any easier. Look, if you're in a technical role that requires you to be a developer of sorts, then there is certain knowledge and skills I expect you to have. Being able to copy and paste and understand the concept of "open your preferred text editor" is one of them. One of my students just couldn't grasp the concept of opening notepad or similar. Seriously? WTF is wrong with you?

Then I went to make dinner (teriyaki pineapple chicken on rice) and the one cat just wouldn't shut the fuck up. Like it was sending my nerves into the stratosphere. I would lock her up and she would still scream. Then I set aside a small bowl of food for the dog and while my back was turned one of the other cats jumped on the counter and ate it. Are you kidding me right now?

At the complete other end of the spectrum I heard back from Delta. They have status matched me and I now have 3 months to meet certain goals to keep it for one year. Okay. My May flight hits like 40% of the goal in one shot so no issue there. They gave me their highest tier too. Nice. 

But the coup de grace of yesterday was B finding me stuff at a thrift store. They found me a 1964 fully working easy bake oven. Yep. Plus some nice pants and a sweater. I needed a little gift with the day I was having and this was a real nice surprise. It was really appreciated. 

We watched some tv together, played some games, then went to bed. Therapy today, document writing, and my new desk is *supposed* to be here today. There's no movement on the FedEx website (wait, let's go check...nope) since Monday so I don't know if it is really going to arrive or not. I hope so, but not counting on it unfortunately. If it does, that's my plans for the night. If not, well, don't know.
