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

I am doing new screen layouts for an as-yet-to-be-coded app. I am doing them in excel because I don't know HTML.

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

After talking to my recruiter I hit up the web for news articles about my previous employer. I was most tickled by the assertion that severance packages won't impact the cost savings they're trying to incur with the rounds of layoffs.

No shit. One or two weeks?

In other news, I was about to start cutting the fabric for my Halloween costume, and I discovered I have no straight pins. What sort of shambles am I calling a home.

Sadly, too much migraine to go buy any, so I'm just going to watch Wire In The Blood.

The feeling you get when your brain finally lets your heart get in its pants.

I finally had to give up on getting a chance to eat breakfast and am now eating a very yummy turkey and brie sandwich for lunch.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

I totally wanted a turkey and brie sandwich for lunch! Maybe tomorrow.

"Faded like the lilac, he thought."

Mmm. That does sound good. I had ham & French swiss (which, okay, whatever) but it was not as good. It was okay. And I really need to be cooking now but I am paralyzed by not wanting to very much. So tonight when I get home, all whacked out and tired from the kids, I will be completely unable to cook, and we will eat Dr. Peppers and popcorn or something equally terrible.

Okay, that sucks. Maybe I will go cook.

The status is NOT quo.

I am compensating by sitting in my chair a lot and also, moving pieces of paper around. I expect instant success, any minute now.

Liese is also me. (And I'm in denial about the actual amount of work I have to do by Monday, so I'm going to pretend that they are really all very small tasks, yestheyareindeedy.)

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

I had a fruit salad and a pumpkin cupcake.

I don't like that my office cafeteria makes many more appealing desserts than mains.

Yesterday's cafeteria lunch was country ham and cheddar on foccachia bread, which was actually pretty yummy.

I think I've found the Bitches' mascot! What do y'all think?

I’d be lying if I didn’t say that I miss them all tonight…

I'm intimidated by one very large task: book a holiday party for 450 people on a maximum budget of $10000 somewhere in SF, including food & 2 drink tickets. Preferably in Fisherman's Wharf.

I don't want to pull in my favors for this & I don't want to call the hotels & talk to the overly eager event staff. Gah.
