Poor Hec!
Poor dw!
Amy, I'm so sorry to hear about your friend. What a tragic loss. My thoughts and prayers are with you all.
Raq, that pic of you and Mal and the dolphin is just priceless! Thanks for sharing.
Actually not needing validation right now, but thank you.

No wonder Mal is so beautiful.

All is well that ends in pizza.
You decided to respond to my 13.5 hour workday with cat pictures?
Nope. Merely coincidental posting, I was skimming.
You both suck eggs.
Nope. But I have blown them.

Love is stronger than death and harder than sorrow. Those who practice it are fierce like the light of stars traveling eons to pierce the night.

13.5 is nothing to sneeze at, but I used to pull 14 hr shifts every week. 'Twas a great relief from the schedule in which I had two 16 hr shifts at the end of which I had to stay at work for another unpaid 8 hr sleepover in case of emergencies. See also the time when after 6.5hr shift, 8 hr sleepover, and 16 hr shift, my relief did not show up, and the house manager didn't get her butt in to rescue me until I'd been on duty for 23.5 hrs. When I finally got home, the cats had chewed open and eaten a package of uncooked ramen noodles.

I... am awake. That's bad enough.

Also, fie on Hec's work. I've been there, and it fucking sucks. It sucks more when the 12+ hour days are due to other people's incompetance, because of the rage.

Emily, are you flying out, today?

this mess was yours / now your mess is mine
Here's the thing: when people don't respond to voice-mail messages, or to repeated e-mails, then I assume they're pissed at me and hoping I'll take a hint from their pointed ignoring of me.
And since I don't know what I could have done to piss these particular people off, it's driving me batshit, and I'm likely to say FUCK OFF to them the next time they actually get in touch with me.
[Note: it's not anyone here; I wouldn't be that passive-aggressively tacky.]
It's possible, of course, that I'm insane and overreacting. (Me? Overreact? Surely not!) And yet, I'm feeling all HULK SMASH towards about 3 people right now. I haven't done anything really offensive in a LONG time -- I have no idea why people are avoiding me.
It's like I've been MARCIE'd by life.

That's how I feel, so you're not alone. I have had people actually tell me, "I was hoping you'd get the hint!" So a perky "Fuck you!" is often the best response.
