• I was looking through pictures on my work phone and ran across this one of Data in the tub, during his phase where he wanted to be in it all the time (July and August 2018). This photo made me feel sad and guilty about his quality of life during his last few months. We did our best to keep him comfortable and let him do his favorite things (walks outside) but we learned a lot from him being sick – we probably should have said goodbye sooner than we did.

  • I also found lots of cute pictures of the kittens I’d forgotten about, and funny ones of Khali!

  • I really don’t trust my blog host. My blog randomly breaks and each time they give me a different bs reason. Sigh. It’s frustrating because I don’t understand the technical side of if all (which is my fault). The rest of this bullet is just for my documentation: Yesterday this blog went down and they claimed it was “due to exceed of query limit.” So they reset the query limit and told me to install the w3 total cache plugin to avoid this issue further. Okay. Ilaxstudio.com also crashed and they said it was because my theme core files were missing from the server. They were there Tuesday… where did they randomly go? It kind of sounds like their servers are getting hacked to me… or my blog. They said they have a backup from 14 days ago and I asked them to install it, but as of this morning, it’s still down. I hope they an fix it – there are posts on there that never transferred over here. Also, back up your damn blog, Kim.
  • Whoa too much gloom and doom! Let’s do some random positive things. Here are some cookies we made last night!

  • I had a fun hour long video chat with a favorite coworker at the end of the work day yesterday. She took this screenshot and sent it to me saying “you look so cute at home!” Aww, I thought that was sweet. I like how you can see my vast interests from our office – cats and travel.

  • My snis gave me a coupon for a free cotton tote from Shitterfly! Which one should I get? Take my poll below (here are all the options):
