I'm terrifically busy with my ennui.

I'm getting pinged by my sister

Oh, right! Is it this weekend that's zero hour, or next?

Note for Hec's file: shrift's similes get extra weird when she's angry.

Duly noted. Mine get vicious and specific.

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

I got my hot and my cheese. Not quality, but Costco cheese pizza will do in a pinch.

Next, but this weekend we caravan to pick up our dresses.

Duly noted. Mine get vicious and specific.

Normally I think mine do, too. But today I am scatterbrained and beseiged.

Oy. Godspeed.

My husband concurs that I should go home.

You know how some people can make anything look like a chore? I just watched a co-worker take a sip of her drink like it was the hardest thing in the world to do, but she was oh so very brave to try. If only that applied to burping, farting, spraying food and long personal phone calls. It'd at least be a start.

I remember the crazy days. 500 posts an hour. Nubmer! Natgbsb

So I am working on three differnt clients today all on projects that are time sensitive and need to be completed. People keep congregating and chattering around my desk. Thank dog my boss keeps pulling me away before I snap at them, then someone else shoos them away before I get back.

Your coworker sounds like a toddler, ita. Although now that I think about it, Franny's phone conversations aren't particularly long. They mostly consist of "hello. hell-oh. hello. hi! hi! hello."

Toddlerhood is a good approximation.
