today feels more like Tuesday Part 4, in the month of Turkey March, rather than Friday but TGIF in such a way. here's hoping today brings some relief for all of us.

and while I'm very glad to no longer be in GA, hot damn go ATL, hold steady with this smidge of a lead.

and on the other big topic, already assuming WI finally breaks 6k cases today. past 2 days have been just shy of hitting it and we should start seeing the Halloween surge kick in, unfortunately

but hey it's nearly the weekend, I'm definitely not working late today, and I'm aiming to write one way or another this weekend

.... hot damn Biden just took the lead in Pennsylvania at last

yeah work can bite me, I'm keeping the news on today. this shit is more important

real

work is dragging today but at least not crazy

crazy is the record low 70s we're seeing lol

now if only it wasn't dark so early

well today's covid numbers are about as bad as I was expecting

finally broke 6k, surprised it took almost 2 weeks

9% hospital beds open (with staff for them) in the state, apparently single digit ICU beds in my section of the state

another 200+ admitted statewide, and with the Halloween spike due to kick in next week I wouldn't be surprised if hospitals were announced officially full some time next week

hospitals in the northern part of the state have already been at the "patients in hallways" state for a couple weeks now so

ready for this workday to be done and to force myself away from news for a couple hours, and just distance myself from reality with a couple hours of gaming

I know I'm going to need that mental palette cleanse if I want to do any RP this weekend

at least it was payday today

debating a nap since this week has been exhausting but I want to stay up tonight, make the most of this weekend since I don't have to work. but I don't know if I trust myself to wake up before morning :|

meh

/insert thoughts and things here my brain can't quite eloquently articulate

knowing the way things go, I'll probably have a wild hair of inspiration at 2am or something
