If you're going through hell/keep on going/don't slow down/keep your fear from showing/you might be gone/'fore the devil even knows you're there

Ugh. We're just coming up on our review period, and a very senior person is making a huge fucking federal case out of a tiny, practically meaningless error I made. Fuckity.

Compassionately intolerant

Right. That's why I was thinking that the research was a mistake. AND, the only reason I did it is because I was feeling anxious. NEVER a useful motivator for this kind of thing.

One lesson I learned in all this was, if someone calls on Sunday, don't blithely suggest Thursday...it's too much time to make myself crazy.

eta: Off to get my hair cut and get a little work done before the magic hour.

Once more, I shower the Buffista community with appreciation. I was seriously agitated and after getting y'all's perspective, I'm once again really looking forward to tonight. Thanks!

I hate it when senior people do this to prove just how Very Important they are.

Have a great date, Beej!

I want to see new vw hair pictures NOW. Did you hear me? NOW. NOW. NOW.

Ick. That sucks with the timing, Brenda. Can you request a brief meeting with the very senior person and win them over to the dark your side?

More date~ma on the way to Beej.

You can't leave me to my own devices; my devices are Nap and Eat. -Zenkitty

Yesterday someone was going on and on and on about ECT being a torture device and people receiving it against their will. Blah, blah, blah. My prof tried to correct him, but the guy just wouldn't drop it.

Coming in a little late on this, but that guy is a Scientologist, or he has been (knowingly or unknowlingly) reading Scientolgy literature. It's one of the central theses to Scientology. He'll likely say he has a 1st Amendment right to blather on idiotically about ECT, when confronted.

Now tagless for your comfort.

vw, I'd probably at least give the prof a heads up--which may or may not avoid the need for a cluesticking. I have to admit, I'm personally hoping the guy gets cluesticked.

I'm so freakin' tired today. I've just sat around while Owen pulls out every toy he has and scatters them through the house. DH had to travel to Iowa today for work so he left the house at 5:30 a.m. and won't be home until 9 p.m. Feh. I should have had somebody come in to help me out today.

Plei, I got fitted for a Bravado nursing bra yesterday and can I just say they are the most comfortable things I've ever had on. I only bought one in the shop because I think they're cheaper online. I'm going to order some more of them today.

I love them. I need more.

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.

Coming in a little late on this, but that guy is a Scientologist, or he has been (knowingly or unknowlingly) reading Scientolgy literature. It's one of the central theses to Scientology.

Does this have to be the case? or maybe he's in posession of very old info?

They used to do ECT without consent back in the '50s, right? Then ECT fell from favor for a few decades, IIRC. (But I'm not really confident about my IIRC here....)

eta: But I do think you're probably right....

Now tagless for your comfort.

Owen's favorite tv show is Little Einsteins--whose nemesis is Big Jet (an evil jet that steals their stuff and menaces their cute little rocket ship). Since our house is close to the airport, we sometimes can hear loud planes flying overhead.

A few minutes ago, a plane passed over and Owen looked at me and said, clear as a bell, "Uh-oh. It's Big Jet."
