Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

Which reminds me -- someone I was hanging out with the other day kept saying WTF. Like "double-you-tee-eff." It was weird.

Also weird, I just got complimented on my cleanliness by the custodian. I used to get that in my last job, too. WTF are people doing in their offices to make them so dirty??

Good Trouble and Righteous Fights

Yeah, 950 is nuts.

Oh, and in the cover letters I've done so far on this job search (all three of them), I've been including a sentence to the effect that I left my previous job to freelance upon the birth of a child in 2004, and that I'm now seeking a return to full-time work. In a way that feels like oversharing, but it seems like it's best that they know I left of my own free will for a standard reason rather than being fired or laid off. Make sense?

See above, re: just peeing where you stand.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

Changing their identities.

Without WiFi.

Except I called the design person, and she *also* says 950.

Maybe they use a magic font?

Woe to the fucking wicked.

Which reminds me -- someone I was hanging out with the other day kept saying WTF. Like "double-you-tee-eff." It was weird.

A freind of mine does this. Every single time, I think, "Oh, dear God, C, we're adults. You can say 'fuck'"

It's five thousand for kissing, ten thousand for snuggling... End of list.

Did these people go to college? Minimizing words pp was half of writing papers. But it's generally 1000 words=5 double spaced pages.

I know! And the pages don't look cramped! And they use headlines and pictures!

But I've asked all the People Who Ought To Know, so I guess I just need to shut up and drink the kool-aid.
