It's five thousand for kissing, ten thousand for snuggling... End of list.

Good Trouble and Righteous Fights
What have you done in the last year while Matilda went from born to one?
Uh, new job, which right now is giving me headaches. Why everyone seems to think I can figure out our administrative systems without anyone explaining them to me is beyond my ken. And I hate it, because not knowing something I'm clearly expected to know makes me feel stupid, and feeling stupid makes me feel humiliated, even when the problem is clearly with their expectations and not my brain.
Also, switched genres in my writing. Still Not Published.
Not my best year, really.

Someone just catcalled in the hallway behind me and yelled "Shake it, Daddy!"
anyone else confused about the use of "Daddy". While ita can kill you with an eyelash, she is definitely all girl (heh, typed ass girl at first)

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

Heh. Ah, no. That exchange was one I was merely peripheral to. When I am mistaken for a guy, no one ever wants me to shake it.
It's kinda sad.

Class full of "too smart to do the work"s. Some of them deal with it by doing other, but related, work, and I'm okay with that. But one just does nothing at all. Oy.

Um. New job. And that's pretty much it. Now I'm depressed.
I didn't even do that! Although I admit it's difficult to be depressed when listening to Type O Negative cover Sarah McLachlan. I'll be depressed when the song is over.
