My girls are with their dad now at the airport. They will be joining their cousins and aunts and uncle in Boracay later today and will be there until Tuesday.
Until then, I will be solo living. I don’t have to wake up early to cook. Or bother to cook for the entire day. Whopeee!
I was told my panel interview will be on Wednesday and my friend will one of the interviewers. 🤣 So fairgaymother K asked me if I would be all business with our friend KL or I would be familiar with her. I said, nahhh, I would be professional. I told him that I honestly am not too hot about the job. If the compensation isn’t above 50% my current rate, it would suck given that I would be exchanging so much freedom for more work and more stress.
If only my manager isn’t my current manager and the threat of changing our contracts doesn’t hang over our heads like Damocles’ sword, I would have stayed on for a little bit. But then, I’m already fed up with the parent company—or maybe it’s the 10-year itch (instead of 7-year) that is making me antsy. 🤔
Ah well. I don’t know. Let’s see where this leads me. It doesn’t hurt to know how much I am undervalued now against market rates since I have stayed in one place for a decade. As my ex-colleague friend said, it’s good to have this exercise every once in a while.
My cats invading my human twins’ room. I’ve drawn the curtains so they can look out the window. I’ve opened the main door this morning but Kimchi wasn’t interested in going out and would rather be by the window.
At first when I read it on Twitter (now X, with a revolting tweet from Elon Musk), the first thing that went through my mind was this was scripted.
Then FBI killed the shooter.
Oh, so this is real…But I don’t know, the shooter is a registered Republican. A man can be desperate enough to do stupid things to put food on the table and be a sacrificial lamb for something as bizarre as this.
Trump will have a landslide win in November by the looks of it. This incident paints the Democrats as villains and Trump a hero.
This is what you get when you have an incumbent who refuses to acknowledge that he is not effective and he is not what the people wanted. Obama and Pelosi already talked to him; Democrats are calling for him to step down and make way for somebody else to be the frontrunner of the party. But nope, Sleepy Joe is as stubborn as a mule.
With this assassination attempt, the presidency is now delivered hot to Trump. Good luck, America, with your Project 2025.
Those piles are my to-be-read books. I finished some of them but I still couldn’t pick another one because I’m overwhelmed by the options how I can spend my free time. I was contemplating on doing watercolors but the creative burst isn’t there. I couldn’t stay up late because I need to go the clinic for a check up and see the result of the biopsy of my forehead tumor early tomorrow morning.
For now I am just soundtripping on the new playlist I made on Spotify. It’s chill-electronica-pop that I will binge on the plane to and from Panglao. I must make a playlist as well for beach chilling. We will be flying at 5:30 am on Friday and will be back at 8 pm on Monday. Just a quick trip, to reacharge.
