 I am getting so tired of waking up to emails sent at 10pm on Sundays. It's just rude. You can schedule emails people. At least have the decency to schedule them to go out at like 8am on Monday. It's jarring to wake up to like six emails and only to discover four of them are "informational" in nature. 

Didn't do a whole lot yesterday. Laundry. Lots of laundry. It was pretty nice here until about 4 when it started storming for hours. I liked that too to be honest. So much moisture in the air. Started to plan out my packing for next week. I can't believe after sitting at home for so long I get to travel again so soon. The way it should be. The big difference is this next trip there will be no working, no checking email, no nothing. I will be on a true vacation. Had multiple conversations with my sister and niece to plan out some of the days. As of right now we have planned out a dinner, a club night, shopping trip, a craft day, and that's about it. I will be there four full days so we need to make sure we've got stuff to do. I'm looking forward to this trip.

B's friend was over all day. Their boyfriend is being a real asshole and it wasn't safe for them to be home. I was a little frustrated at having someone else in the house, but I understand the situation and put my annoyance to the side. We had mexican for dinner, dairy queen for dessert. Just trying to show them some normalcy and that the situation they're in isn't healthy or the norm.

Went to bed around 10 and slept moderately well. Have a webinar pre-meeting today followed by some doc writing. Teach tomorrow and then two webinars this week, one on Weds and one on Thurs. It's a busy but not busy kind of week. I have things for like an hour or two at a time surrounded by dead time. But hey, just have to make it 9 days. Then bye bye. 

New phone arrives tomorrow hopefully. As long as it gets here before I leave. Did I mention I ordered a new phone? Mine was going really wonky on this last trip. Rebooting, not holding network, locked up twice. Just pissing me off. I've had the same phone for almost 4 years now which for me is a goddamn record. I ordered a Google Pixel 6 Pro. I am on a 3 XL so yeah. Mine released Oct 2018 and I got it for Xmas that year. Not quite four years, but still a long time for me. Hopefully I will get another 3+ years out of this new one. Scheduled to ship today. I expect it to arrive by Thursday which is still fine. As long as I have it before I leave, all that matters.

Okay, let's start this damn day.
