    It’s Monday and I’m in 5 solid hours of meetings from 11am to 4pm. My job could vaporize into nothing, me along with it, and nothing would change. I’m barely thinking 5 minutes ahead, let alone 5 years.

    It’s aiming up to be a doozy, at least for me.

    Dryer started making a burning smell yesterday. Strong severe storms in the upper Midwest today. Half of my day sitting through legal shit Tuesday. A presentation to executives Wednesday. Rent due Thursday. And I can’t even bother to look up what I have on Friday.

    Then, sprinkle in parenting time, panic attacks after reading the news, chores, and everything ive forgotten about. On top of work, where I struggle to lead my offshore team (go figure, an introvert with verbal communication skills slightly more coherent than RFK Jr told to lead a team known for cowboy shit).

    But I haven’t turned to booze yet, so not all hope is lost.

        I can’t reach wherever the clog is (doesn’t seem to be in the lint trap area or the exterior vent. If that’s the problem. The other problem I suspect is that the Thermostat is borked, the grill in front of the heat element has a pretty scorched looking area.
