When is my next VAT due? Did they even send me the form? Why can’t they spell my name right? Have we run out of bread? Did I write down the number of the new contact at the client site? Am I doing enough? Did I miss that technical document thing in the project plan and will that throw the dates out? Why has no one improved on MS fucking project? Did I send that email to myself with the details of the place we are staying at? Have I written down my stats from the run in the Notebook of Healthy? Should we go to Cuba or would that be politically crass? Why don’t I know more about international politics? Did we bring in the recycling bin? Have I transferred money across to the house account? Will I ever do the thing that I am meant to do? Will someone please tell me that thing is? Is Rex being psychologically damaged by Badger’s quest to love him to death with her furry sibling adoration? Have I got enough clean pants for this weekend? Where the fuck did I put the train tickets? Why do I have this overwhelming sense of dread? Am I psychic or is this the estrogen talking?
Add to this a little hysteria at the reports of biblical-level flooding sweeping through a city that contains my entire family. Little Brother’s clan have been evacuated and I know they are out of danger, but they are scared and so far away and there is nothing anyone can do.
I’m glad that your brother and his family are out of danger, but that doesn’t make being evacuated any less scary, nor being so far away any easier. I’m not surprised you were awake at 4 am.
Sending love to you and wishes for a good night’s sleep.
You’re an hour later than I, I’m usually doing this at 3am altho I do not have flood-related brother and family worries. Rest well, x
You are not alone in worry. It is devastating, what is going on there, and I also am very glad your family is safe. It’s an uncomfortable right now in many parts of the world. Lots of virtual hugs, sas…
xoxoxoxoxo and xoxoxoxo.
And some more xoxoxooxox.
Jeez, is that a kangaroo stranded on top of a beaver dam?
Are there beavers in AUS – I didn’t think so, but maybe I’ve been wrong.
Stay dry & high.
ps. I’ve added SMMT to my blogroll under the header “All & Sundry Poisons’; I’d be tickled if you stop by Venom, Secretsm & Lies sometime and check it.
I hope those worries abate soon … and here’s hoping the worst of the floods is behind us all.
If it’s any comfort at all it seems that the evacuation and emergency management efforts are being extremely well managed.
Take care.
