the classic incandescent lightbulbs consisted of a tungsten filament which, creating high resistance when current was applied, emitted light.

Yes, it is a cool name.

I wanna take you somewhere so you know I care,
but it's so cold and I don't know where.
I brought you daffodils, in a pretty string,
but they won't flower like they did last spring.

four hours of sleep
 
Even though I went to bed on time, I was awakened early.

I had four hours of sleep and today have lots and lots of stuff going on at work that require my concentration.

We are expecting huge rain storms.
I am focusing on staying alert for driving.
And I am going to try not to talk to people as much as I normally would.

Sunny day
 
I thank Goodness that the rain that was all around my spot of town stayed away from me and kept me dry.
(Parts of town had deluges that made the record books for the amount of rain fall.)
I stayed dry except a dozen sprinkles on my windshield two miles from home.

Today was a much longer day than I anticipated.
I came home with Chinese food for hubby and me.

I love the bubble tea.

bubble tea? oh my!
 
Glad that fortune found you in regard to the rain showers today.

you know, i have never drunk, seen, or even heard of bubble tea before!!! :o this is like... WOW! and i have tried some pretty strange drinks in different Asian restaurants. i've never even seen it on a menu at Chinese places. it looks and sounds tantalizing. i did look at the recipe and it isn't something i can attempt at home - that's even if i could find the (very specific) ingredients. oh well. an addition to my long list of things to try "someday".

hope you enjoyed your take out and have a relaxing evening after the long day. TGIF anyway. it's the weekend ... kick back ... ;) :hug:

Hi, Waves,

They have a chewy consistency. It feels weird to chew one's drink. I discovered the tapioca bubbles have a laxative affect.

Talk with boss re FMLA
 
-->>I announced to my boss that I would not show up at 9:30 for her small b.s. event. I agreed to be there at 10:00 a.m
-->>I informed my boss that I would not attend the big huge event six days later that starts early in the morning and goes all day in the heat.

I told her my FMLA file was up to date.

She asked about that again.

I told her that my neurologist said I have a difficult and complicated sleep disorder. I cannot be at work in the morning and I should be working at night.


I suppose I should feel relieved, but I am too exhausted to feel appropriate emotions.

Glad that you were able to stick up for yourself and tell her your needs.
