Woke with a sore throat. Emailed in sick. Tried submitting my timesheet, but it requires VPN to connect, which requires dual authentication. I don't use VPN very often, so I had to spend 20 minutes trying to remember which login, which password, and which secondary password to use, and also which sets of credentials in my password database were no longer current. Breakfast at home: beef and barley soup from a can. Drank water and ate sore throat lozenges all day. Snack: small, warm blueberry scone. Rested. Did some pantry tidying and vacuuming. Snack: tortilla chips and leftover appetizer combo from Park Gyros. Watched Tidying Up with Marie Kondo s1:e1 and Abstract: The Art of Design: s1:e1: Christoph Niemann on Netflix instant watch by myself. I learned that Marie Kondo uses the same clothes folding techniques that I do. And pretty much everything that Christoph Niemann draws is delightful. Dinner at home with Patrick: Creole red beans and rice. We had planned to have Kerry and Mom Ryan over for dinner tonight, but that was before I had gotten sick.
