Days that make you want to cry
Feb. 10th, 2026 11:33 pmIt started out well. Students showed up, did what they're meant to and meeting a prospective student went well.
and then the day fell off a cliff. I was insanely busy.
then I can't find the agars I need to my research students. And when I finally did I don't have the budget for this. sigh.
Then the roof started leaking. Everywhere. I mean everywhere. every lab. every classroom. people who building flat roofs in a snowy area should have their balls kicked repeatedly
My building has issues before this. Got an email. We need a list of what needs fixed in your lab. by tomorrow. well thanksI
Then the online stuff stopped working again just like last year
Then I was reminded my first thought today was I wish I was retired or at least I never did my sabbatical because it was a taste of retirement
Came home. everything is now ice because it was 60 and all the snow is gone but the ice was too thick for that. Looking forward to my death tomorrow
I haven't been wearing my contacts lately because I can't see to read any more and since I read a lot all day it's not worth the reading glasses headaches. Had them in today. Was doing great. Took them out around 7 without a half hour my eye was beet red and I haven't been able to keep it open for nearly 4 hours. I have NO idea what happened. The contact came out easily. it feels more like it rolled up under my eyelid. Flushed it with both my steroid drops and saline but nope. Going to bed early and hope this heals up overnight. Do not want pink eye. Do not want to go to urgent care tomorrow.
Was going to do a cool writing meme but since it feels like someone is removing my eyeball with sandpaper
