When one says Bronze Age, for instance, what order of size is the Age?
Greeks and Romans?
I think we're still in the Age of Aquarius. Or the Industrial Age.
Oh my god. What can it be? We're all doomed! Who's flying this thing!? Oh right, that would be me. Back to work.

I am being unbelievably eeyoreish and am attempting to keep it to myself.

How do I heal my plantar fascitis? Owie.
My boss the ortho nurse suggested I vary my shoes every day and wear 1 1/2 to 2" wedge heels and it has really helped

Good Trouble and Righteous Fights
I have to drive to freakin' Manteca for Emmett's last tournament of the season.
That's where Ex-Army Brother works. (He lives in Modesto.) That is quite a drive.
I'm only working till 12:30 today because we have tickets to the M's-Angels game at 1:35. This seemed much more exciting 48 hours ago before the M's dropped the first two of the series in embarrassing fashion. Oh well. Maybe Felix will pitch a gem. But probably not. t /Mariners fan pessimism (tm)

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
I was wondering if Ages were short enough for us to be out of the Industrial. I don't wanna be Industrial. Wanna be cyber.
I think I wear a wide variety of heel height. Mostly low. Will vary more.

LinkedIn just showed me people I might like to connect to and juliana's name was in there!!! How do they know??? We don't work in the same industry or city, haven't worked for the same company, and didn't attend the same college. Spooky.

I spent the morning trying to get my work laptop working from home. None of my connections were functioning, and wouldn't until I had to call the help desk (outsourced to Perot down in Texas, for some godawful reason) four separate times and my boss twice. Yuck. Everything works now, but I'm not touching any of my cords until Friday night, in case everything blows up again.

That is so freaking creepy, Gloomcookie -- whenever they ask if I know people, I always know two out of three, with no obvious connection. Right when I joined, they asked if I knew my cousin -- not the same name, location, occupation, alma mater, nothing! So weird.
