mousmeWhat. A. Day.
The universe heard me worrying about my Big Important Meeting and decided to put things into perspective for me, it seems. ;)
Nothing dire or life-threatening, luckily, but as soon as the meeting was over all hell broke loose in my office. IT issues, employee drama (minor but annoying), and last-minute revelations that the secure network migration this weekend is going to be kind of nightmarish.
Ha ha, universe, very funny.
It's all fine, for the record. Nothing I couldn't handle, and for the most part I really enjoy the problem-solving aspects of all this ridiculousness. But I am TIRED tonight.
Also when I got home I found that Peggy managed to Houdini herself out of her (STILL LOCKED) crate, and had had accidents all over the upstairs carpet (and not downstairs which is all easily cleaned hardwood floor, *sigh*). Otherwise, though, she didn't destroy anything, and while the cats are DEEPLY unimpressed they're also not traumatized and have even come out a few times to test the waters. So I'm letting her have the run of the house this evening as an experiment to see if I can get rid of the baby gate entirely and just let her do her thing. She'll still have to be crated during the day when I'm at work, but it would be nice to not have to keep us both confined to the living room and kitchen the rest of the time.
We shall see.
