I have absolutely fucking had it with people who have a new "emergency" that I have to deal with every fucking week.

It means that you're good at your job, Jesse. And the reward for being good at your job is: more work!

See? I gave everybody here an opportunity to tell me what a bad person I am and nobody did, because I fuckin' rule.

The skirt I am wearing today, which I always thought was brown, seems to actually be black. Or not. I can't tell.

I am wearing a black and red skirt; sadly, it is accompanied by a black turtleneck that I thought was pure black but turns out to be black with entertaining whorled patterns of baby blurp on the shoulders, which I didn't notice until I went to the restroom ten minutes ago. Sigh.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

The person with the emergencies doesn't even work here! Which is the problem -- it's a funder, so of course I have to keep jumping, even when what she's essentially saying is, "Can you do my job for me? THX."

And now she's all pitiful that people are descending on her LJ and disagreeing with her.

The internet is public! Pass it on!

ICompletelyON: My Saints play tonight! I'm verra nervous. A few sports writers who I respect have been predicting a Superbowl for us this year. Of course, tonight we play the Colts. Gah! This game is going to have me distracted all day. I'm also starting the gumbo for Saturday when LSU plays (which I'm way less nervous about).

Wait, is this real-world child support, where the money goes to buy food for the kids, or MRA fantasyland child support where the women just buy Ferraris and cocaine? -Jessica

hip deep in pie

What's a good stretch (other than that one, obviously) that would help open up my shoulders so I can lift my arms higher behind my back?

A gentler stretch that helps open your clavicle is to stand in a doorway (not too wide a doorway) and put your palms up flat against the door jamb at shoulder height. Then step one leg forward and you should feel a stretch across your clavicle. Hold for 30-60 secs. And then change feet.

Yoga has really helped me with a lot of my shoulder tension. But I have to keep it up, or it gets all knotted up again.

Um...hmmm...mostly it was a matter of just doing it a lot I think.

Well, I intend to keep doing it, but I'm not seeing any progress at all, which is why I'm hoping there's some other stretch that might help.

I can check with my yoga instructor friend for some tips.

That would be cool.

Cool -- I'll try that. Thanks!
