Cool--my boss just reminded me that our department gets a four-day weekend for Memorial Day, since we didn't get Presidents Day off (due to having to be here to support the tax people, who don't get time off before April 15). So, my next two work weeks will be four days each!
And we live to fight another day.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
I'm having a stupid dilemma in my head about going for drinks for a coworker's good-bye. I really don't know her very well, and none of my work friends are going, but I don't have a good reason not to go, I just don't want to! Eh. I'm going to bail.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
Don't bail! Drink!
I'm bailing on a coworker's BBQ, but I'm teaching then. That is a reason, Jesse. Take heed.
Today I feel like a girl. Or perhaps a boy in girly clothes. There's an appliqued flower on my top, and many layers to my skirts. I'm also wearing a slip (for no good reason), fishnets, and granny boots. I wish my reading glasses had a chain dangling from the arms.

Don't go.
Not letting a little near-relation cannibalism get in the way of that nummy breading.
Yeah, that's why I never eat fellow mammals...hey, wait a minute!

I would be happy to drink if it didn't involve being out late! And by late, I mean after 6pm. And they aren't even going until 6:30. Fuck that.

OMG. I am on a conference call with a guy who thinks he's having a one-on-one conversation. WTF? Has he never done this before?

Do people have ducks as pets.
My late father had a pet Duck as a kid. One legged. Apparently very friendly. Plus it killed rattlesnakes. (So unfriendly where appropriate.)

move out and draw fire
I had a pet duck as a kid. I named it Quackers because it liked crackers. The epitome of 4yo humor.
My parents gave it to me for Easter, and then decided that a pet duck wasn't working for them, and relocated it to the duck pond at the zoo. I was traumatized.

Punishingly Intricate
oh! Happy Birthday, Vortex!
What else do I need to put on my list to prepare for the weekend?! I feel like I'm forgetting something.
eta dag, I forgot to get my friends' baby something for his birthday party Sunday evening when I was just at the Target...Hope I can find a one-year old something appropriate at, like, a Sheetz.
