The Ka-tet Cantina 2

[not_nadine]

Oh honey - you know what I think is going on. The wheel of Ka is turning and you're meant to be back in touch with family. Whatever the reason. I always get my hackles up when I hear from a long lost beloved friend or relative. I wonder: what do you need? why haven't I heard from you in forever? are you going to make me cry? But what's the worst that could happen? If it gets uncomfortable, you say "I can't do this right now." If it's wonderful, you've got some joy in your life. The worst that could, in my opinion, would be to not put yourself out there. I think this is going to be good for you.

Don't withhold. You'll regret that. I sure do. Two people, gone for good, and I didn't say what needed to be said. I light candles, have my crazy Catholic rituals, beg them to hear me. I'll never know.



OK then - I've got to go teach CGS. I'll be back with a funny gif.

I hear you, Holly and I say thank ya. Light one of those candles extra, If it will do ya.

Starkblast blew through early Sat. morning; looks like frozen Transylvanian woodlands out my window. Fire in the hearth, dusty old tomes of weird literature stacked at my side, sipping spirits at the ready. Do your worst, old frost-bearded Winter.

Sounds cozy there, rat! Enjoy.

P.S. I would not like to see a clown driving a car! Unless it was a little bitty car, with lots of other clowns stuffed inside!

Well, of course! (Everyone knows that is normal clown behaviour)

It is frigid where I am - more snow, blowing around out there. (yuk)

It's about 46F here and windy. I am not ready for snow!

 

[not_nadine]

It smells like snow out there. It is not here or in the forecast, yet.
But you know the look in the sky and the nip and feel in the air? Birds act a bit strange.. A kind of quiet grey?

Any Canada geese flying overhead?

 

[not_nadine]

They have been doing that. wonk wonk wonk

Thank goodness have not landed.
I get in trouble with them. They are nice at fist.. next thing you know, you are running for your life, nipped and pulled and chucking dried corn over your shoulder.

 

[Lepplady]

Very nice! I have one question about the picture, though:

Just wear did those fuzzy balls come from?

Tribbles!

 

[Neesy]

Tribbles!

That's the trouble with tribbles - they are always multiplying and showing up in the darndest places.

Been awhile since I checked into the Cantina. Been busy at work. I feel like crud and I haven't been sleeping much. Or at all most nights. I know I've been taking in way too much caffeine and energy drinks and that's definitely not helping me sleep. I can't miss time from work because we are so short-handed that it isn't even funny. Been that way for months, actually. My boss walked out on her job in July and it's been hell trying to find a replacement. And a lot of good people quit. Obviously, have a new boss now but I don't think he's cut out. It's making things more stressful than they need to be.

Don't really have much choice but to work all of Thanksgiving and Black Friday.

I was planning on quitting at the beginning of the month. I had something else lined up, but I was offered more than I can refuse. Which is nice. But I sure am exhausted most days and I can't believe I'm getting sick.

I am off the next two days. So I'll try to get some much-needed rest. Although I do have to take my mom to her oncologist on Tuesday. Her vision just hasn't been too good for awhile so she's scared to drive. I just don't want to get her (or anyone else at the doc's office) sick since she doesn't have much of an immune system.

Wow! You have a lot going on in your life - please try to get some rest and take care of yourself so you don't burn out ((((jacobtlong))))

Usually they have masks to put on as you walk in the door, and they have sanitizer. Especially at an oncologist. Drop her off and sit in your car. Get better!

 

[cat in a bag]

Feel better, Jacob. You sure are a good guy. I hope you and your family have a Happy Thanksgiving.

 

[cat in a bag]

I have been lazy all weekend, going to have so much to do the next few days!

Before the board closes down, want to wish you all a very Happy Thanksgiving. Be safe and be happy.

Big hugs and positive vibes to all!

I'll certainly try.

Hadn't really thought of that. Appreciate the idea.

Everything good about me I inherited from my mom and dad. Everything else is courtesy of being an evil ginger kid. Hope you and everyone else enjoys Thanksgiving, too. Appreciate the positive vibes.

I am pretty sure ginger kids have an immunity to those germs, so go ahead and feel safe!

Spoiler: p.s.

I was not really a ginger kid, but had dark red hair and freckles as a child - used to burn to bright red in the sun. Hope your Mom feels better - take care!

Hang in there! It'll be over before you know it.

Oncologist? Check your pm.

(((jacobtlong))) Get some rest and good luck at work! Just an aside... sometimes more money is not the best answer if it affects your health!

To all my SKMB friends! Enjoy your week off of the boards and time with your family (if you are in a place that celebrates T-day!) If not, think of all the other stuff you will get done! I am going to be checking in on the boards now and then, so if I see you on, I may PM ya! Fore warned is fore armed, as they say!

If anyone goes out shopping on Black Friday, stay safe and good luck!

 

[Spideyman]

Jacob, sending you some healing vibes, and additional energy vibes. Take time to take care of you too. Positive vibes for your mom.
