The status is NOT quo.

Grrr. But you and Burrell are correct. Best not to feed the energy creature.

'we all walk this earth feeling we are frauds. The trick is to be grateful and hope the caper doesn't end any time soon"

Hulking out is just not worth it sometimes.

Yesterday, I found out that one of the requirements for the WIA training program is lack of a college degree. So, finally, I have an actual advantage for not finishing up the requirements that were left over from my senior year.

Well, aside from the Alumni office not following me with a fervor that would put the CIA to shame....

Shit's all sorts of different now.

It's like Valley of the Dolls at ita's house.

It was Valley of the Dolls in Riverside Park, too!! Yay drugs!!

The spanglish names in LA always cracked me up. And Los Feliz still trips me up.

Now tagless for your comfort.

I wish I could channel Allyson a bit and be all pithy and funny, but instead I just get pissed off.

I've said this out loud a million times.

It was Valley of the Dolls in Riverside Park, too!! Yay drugs!!

Except your dolls say, "eh."

I’m responsible for my own happiness? I can’t even be responsible for my own breakfast! (Bojack Horseman)

I'm not EVEN going to repeat the one I've heard. Possibly not ridiculous, but patently offensive on any number of levels.

Frank is very helpful in pointing these things out without actually SAYING them (thinks back to our conversation off the local news at the Boston Beerworks while waiting for KristinT and the gang).

And then Ortus came and said "It's Ortin' time" and they all Orted off into the sunset

Whiiiiiiiine. It's raining, and it's going to rain ALL DAY. Rain = stuck inside = cranky baby = tired mama.

Maybe there's a movie we can go see.

[eta: As evidence of just how stir-crazy we're going, I offer up this picture of how we've been amusing ourselves.]

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

That picture is hilarious! As are many of the previous ones.

I don't know about being stuck inside, but I sure wish I wasn't at work! Stupid work. I just want to bang on the drum all day!

I hear ya! It's pissing rain here--enough that I don't want to take the kids outside, even to go to the gym. If it clears up later, we'll go but for now, Owen's watching a very annoying kids' show and Olivia is playing with cookie sheets.

Vampire baby is CUTE. One of the perks of having a kid is amusing yourself by taking funny pictures.

Remember that the frontier of the Rebellion is everywhere. And even the smallest act of insurrection pushes our lines forward.

Ugh. I've been at work for 20 minutes, and there's an email conversation from last night that I don't want to read, and a voicemail message that I don't want to hear.

And now the person I don't want to deal with this morning has just walked in. I suspect he'll be coming over to my cube soon.

Scola, you need to make a camouflage cubicle curtain with an empty chair.
