weeknotes 32.7
oops late post because i forgot to hit post (:
sorry i'm halfassing this week (i've halfassed all of them). my family is visiting today. its thanksgiving week and it seems to be one of the weeks where there are not enough hours in the day if i want to sleep longer than at least 4 hours a day. i am going to keep typing until i have time to post
vibe:
drinking: can of georgia coffee my uncle brought me
smelling: my grandma is cooking pancit. the kitchen is warm ad pancit is one of the most comforting smells. waiting for it to be done to eat
my family that is visiting is my uncle and aunt that used to live in japan and their two kids. the oldest is 3 and a half. and when i saw him last he was mostly just side-eyeing me so it surprised me that he was actually talking, and talking to me. i guess i show up a lot on the photo gallery so he is used to seeing me even though i've seen him 3 times. he's one of those kids that trick you into thinking having kids is a good idea. i told him we can play 52 card pick up and he said he was excited. he's never played, but i genuinely think he will love it. no plans to go out, since driving a 20 hr drive with a 3.5 year old and a 4 month old is kind of brutal they wanted to relax. do laundry because baby clothes are always accumulating, and to play 52 card pick up.
i started to organize my 2026 planner. i know this next month is the "we should go (insert location or activity here) soon" which all inevitably fall through, however a girl can hope, right? i believe there are friendsgivings happening but i work those days so i likely wont go. and my dads birthday and nicks birthday are this week so i need to bake something for them. i also need to pay my car registration, (get my car smogged, oops) and sign up for my 2026 benefits (by nov 2nd though). i also have to go to in to work tomorrow.
i had a meeting last week for all year end goals/deadlines. its fucked. work is just fucked. not only my workload but it seemed like it was one of those weeks that everything was going wrong. and itll probably be like this until the end of the year, and next year is another set of tasks to start. which will be a bunch of learning and training for me. luckily, since everything i work on is made up none of this has solid deadlines but i need to keep things always like 1 day away from being finished. which actually is really stressful. i showed my boss of my pending list and he was surprised at the level of things that need to be updated and he didn't consider. mostly a lot of tying up loose ends that require me to work with other departments and when they dont answer me i go and find them. which now people know i'm not playing around and at least reply instead of ghosting me.
finally feels like fall. its cold and foggy and the fog doesnt burn off til noon. trying to convince myself the day isn't over by 4 pm is a struggle.
nick got me a cd player!! (no more disc drive into laptop for bluetooth) but its bluetooth and i can hook it up to my speakers so i will start buying even more CDs now. (if anyone irl wants to buy me a CD just hit me up for the list...) kind of crazy how bulky cd players are now. i probably have my cd player from elementary school somewhere.
the album is AAA by sunset rollercoaster and hyukoh
i've been considering some 2026 goals to set. i typically like multiple across different things. i will post them if i ever decide...
okay bye!!! i'm too lazy to open up youtube and link some things. but since everyone is OOO on my working days because of the holiday. i'll probably be working on this instead of my real job...
