1) Quick lunchish break at The Best Job Ever. I was going to go to my union's lunch meeting, but I got a bout of social anxiety and talked myself out of it. I have a bunch of work to do anyway, so I can justify it with a Protestant Work Ethic argument, even though I was raised Catholic.

2) I am seriously the meanest parent ever (I don't mean that, so don't worry about reassuring me that it's not mean to maintain boundaries). I woke her at 6am to do the chores I reminded her about last night. She did a half-assed job, so I woke her AGAIN a half hour later to finish what she'd started. I really don't want to do this three times a week, but I will.

3) Women's Open Mic tonight at the Montclair Women's Club. Wanna go? The time I went, the music and the womanspace were just a balm to my soul, if I have one. I am really fighting my urge to bail on it, because I remember how good I felt last time. It helps to invite other people, sometimes.
