08.25.22 – Over Burnt Popcorn

Today was another meh for me at work. I just worked on a project presentation that I have been neglecting for a good month. Not my fault. Well, I did procrastinate a bit. But for the most part, I’m just too damn busy and working on multiple projects at the moment. And I have been having issues with prioritizing and actually making time while at work to do them.

Hun and I did spend time earlier today. We talked for a bit. We found out that we have some differing views on a certain political thing. Well, I’m not sure if I can consider that political. I think more like a social topic. Honestly though, statistically, that was bound to happen. And as long as we are not pushing our opinions and beliefs in each other’s throats, then we should be fine.

We did end up watching an episode of The Great British Baking Show. It was fun. I like being able to talk to my hun and enjoy watching the show at the same time without worrying about missing anything. 

I’m pretty amped up right now. I just got back from being outside. The fire alarm went off earlier. Grabbed the dogs and vacated the building. There was no visible smoke from outside the building, no distinct smell. What was it? Over a burnt popcorn, apparently. I knew something burned when we were walking down the hallway towards the emergency exit. There was a distinct smell of burned food. I was thinking, that was it. And I was right. Burnt bag of popcorn that someone opened and then triggered the alarms. I cannot complain though. It was good to know that the newly installed fire alarm system works. 

The dogs are pretty amped right now too. Phoebe is doing her rounds. Paco wants to play. They did pretty well during the whole fire alarm fiasco. Paco was curious as to what was happening outside. Watching people. Watching the fire truck. And Phoebe stayed put. Didn’t squirm from being carried by Chris. I need to put together emergency bags for this kind of thing. Just a grab-and-go kind of thing. 

My hun will be doing a double tomorrow. So no hangout for us. But I do need to do a python class tomorrow. So that should be fine – I say this begrudgingly since I am so lazy to do it.
