 I always appreciate a day where I can wake up without an alarm. I beat my alarm by an hour today, but to be fair I set it for nine hours. I didn't think I would actually sleep that long but I set it just in case.

I took a shower and then went to the basement to play Little Nightmares for awhile. I haven't made it very far but the game is definitely creepy. I like it. And it looks even better projected on my wall.

I went to work at noon and I did things. The first part of my day is escaping me. I was on desk for a couple hours and I think I spent that entire time updating the scavenger hunt brochure. It looked very dated so I changed the fonts, made a better cover, and tried to make it resemble our current brochures. I also updated a couple of the businesses featured in the scavenger hunt with the current business in the building, not the one that was there when the scavenger hunt was originally made.

I went upstairs to the cubicle for the hour before my dinner break so I could finish the scavenger hunt thing and then worked on coming up with a better layout for my homebound spreadsheets. I ended up getting so wrapped up with that project that I went on break ten minutes late because forty-minutes completely disappeared.

Tonight was different. The weather was bad and a little before seven o'clock I had to get on the PA system and ask everyone to go to the basement because the tornado sirens started going off. We had to be there for about thirty minutes until the tornado warning expired. It wasn't too bad but it was hot and loud. I'm just glad people were cool about it and that nothing ended up actually happening. I'm also glad we had a backup to the weather radio, because the person in charge of that couldn't get it working. Instead we used a phone to connect to the Bluetooth speaker and stream a local radio station covering the storm.

With the rest of the night kept an eye on the weather and streamed the radio on the computer to make sure there weren't any updates on the storm. We got some pretty intense rain for a little bit but by the time we left it was only sprinkling. I also got a start on a personalized reading list but only got two books in.

When I got home I watched YouTube videos and looked at couches. I like the idea of putting a sectional downstairs for the projector area but it turns out sectionals are expensive. So that probably won't happen. And I already have one couch I barely use, I don't need another one.

Now I'm going to record my audio journal because it is getting late and I open again tomorrow morning. That means I'm going to be tired tomorrow because I've already missed the window on getting a full night of sleep. Good times.
