13 years/89000 miles on my car.
Just finished a 90-minute Zoom lecture on Cleopatra to 200+ lifelong learners. Exhausted, I want to take the rest of the day off. |

That's impressive, @@! Dr. T said he thinks cars are now built to last 20 years. I think that's a bit optimistic (and would presumably depend on mileage of course).

I have 12 years and 120,000 miles on my car and it’s still running well! Every year or so I have to fork out money for some repair, but it’s definitely cheaper than a car payment.

Yesterday I broke down crying because of how bad my anxiety got by the end of the day. Hid in the bathroom to try to get space from everyone.
Possible trigger:

Hi friends, working today, which is always nice because this furlough sucks. And it's only week two.

I'm feeling moderately depressed. I did paint yesterday though. Acrylic on canvas. May do more tomorrow on my furlough day.

Nice! I spent about 6 weeks with my sister, and she and I did a great deal of Met watching. Her old college roommate was with the Met for 25 years, so we have fun hunting the chorus to see if she was in that particular production.
Hubby is still furloughed - almost 4 months now - hotel industry is really struggling to get restarted, particularly ones that rely on conference groups. Our state is going backwards due to our stupid governor, so it may be several more months. Dad is still in hospice and has made it much longer than we ever expected - we're sort of in a holding pattern. I can't see how he's made it this long, and honestly, I don't think he expected he'd make it this long. He's ready to go. I've come home but fully expect I'll be returning shortly (and honestly hope that is the case for his sake - he didn't want it to go on like this.) Trying to figure out how the heck to teach when we can't get firm plans from anyone above us. It's a mess. |

My h is still not working either, thankfully he's been getting the federal pandemic unemployment which I think is ending soon, so we've been trying to save as much as we can for when that goes away. they've stopped our OT at work for the most part, so i'm not making anything extra anymore. my state's covid rates have been soaring lately which is so disheartening and scary, despite masks being mandatory in several counties. It's really hard to stay positive when it seems that there is no end in sight to this and instead of things getting better, they're just getting worse and worse.

break time yay i've been assigned to the hi-touch messages for the past 3 days and my shoulders are up around my ears this afternoon. working on these accounts is stressful. I think I'm having a margarita for dinner! I have an almost-empty bottle of the Costco variety in my fridge that I got for Christmas.

If you get a chance to see the production of Akhnaten - I highly recommend it and I am not a Philip Glass person. It is magnificent. I saw it in a theater when they showed it live from the met and then again on our pbs station - great performances I think. I don't think it is on the app yet but am looking forward to it when it is.

First princess-y student arguing with me about a grade this summer--a grade that loses her .125% off her final grade. Easily offset by extra credit, and she still has a perfect score in the course so far.
![]() It's particularly annoying because when a course is on a specific subject...why would you write an answer to a question on a totally different subject? She says I should have specified the subject in the question. Um...it's a course on that very subject. Does she not remember what course she is in? ETA: I did my fake therapist apology at her: "I'm sorry you feel disappointed..." I've learned something! (Yes, she said she was disappointed in me.) |
