I'm terrifically busy with my ennui.
I swear to god, my husband is on the phone with me, talking about a situation that has arisen with his work. The topic involves preferential voting.
I can't start shrieking, because he won't understand.

I'm terrifically busy with my ennui.
I almost pulled out, "Well, you know it's how the Australians do it." Almost.

So come, my friends, be not afraid/We are so lightly here/It is in love that we are made; In love we disappear
Dana, a social group here at the office tried to pull out that stuff a couple weeks ago, in the thick of the argument here.

I screamed (in a cute non-serious way). Jilli got it.

"This bar smells like kerosene and stripper tears."
They couldn't just get a consensus?

I'm terrifically busy with my ennui.
It would have only been a false consensus.

"This bar smells like kerosene and stripper tears."
I was going to say "They couldn't get a bullshit consensus?" But I didn't want to hit any raw nerves. I would've only meant it as a gentle tease.
