Hey all you cool cats and kittens!
I like to try to make people laugh. If you haven’t figured it out yet, I am Chandler. I like to pretend everything is OK.
Everything is not OK.
- There’s so much uncertainty.
- I don’t like staying at home.
- I burned the gyoza I took so much time to make because I was preoccupied by being sad.
- I’m rarely sad, so that was a surprise.
- There’s a woman at work who hates me, and I don’t know why.
- We don’t have any toilet paper. (I’m kidding. Old habits die hard.)
I miss working out. There: I said it. I know you’re shocked.
I miss all of you.
I miss normal life.
I took going out to see live music for granted. Going to restaurants. To festivals. To the beach. Seeing friends and family whenever I wanted.
I have so much to be thankful for:
- I have a job.
- I have a job I like.
- I like my boss.
- Eddie is a funny person.
- He has a job.
- The kids are great. Really!
- None of us has the ‘Rona.
- I have fantastic friends and family with whom I can chat via Zoom, Skype, Hangouts, What’s App and Houseparty. I have options!
- And a bidet. 😉
But the reality is that none of us knows how long this will last. And the leadership in this country is woefully inept.
For example, Gov. Kemp opened the Georgia beaches, superseding more restrictive local orders. He also said he didn’t know sometimes people were asymptomatic. 🙄
Sigh.
It’s hard. It’s harder for some than for me, but let me have my moment.
I’ll be fine tomorrow.
Take care of yourselves. I love you all.

Take care of you, too. I’ve also had co-workers who hated me, hated me enough to tell me. Why? I will never know.

It’s really unnecessary, isn’t it? Women have a hard enough time making their way into leadership roles without other women being unsupportive and undermining.

It’s stupid. If we were all the same, NOTHING would work. It really DOES take all kinds.

I just saw on the news that Linda Tripp had died at the age of 70. The one who pretended to be Monica Lewinsky’s friend. Linda used Monica as simply means to an end. It might be better to have a confessed enemy than a fake friend.

That’s true. And you know the saying: Keep your friends close and your enemies closer. I’m still being very nice to her.

Definitely because then you know who to avoid when a political party decides to frame you for their own ends. 🙂
