Especially since my annoying cow-worker who works out loud is now singing "Loving you.... is easy cause you're beautiful....." over and over again.

Gah! Fear the earworm!

You're probably lucky she's not getting to the end of the song....

Does Sophia work with cows or something?

Happy b-day, msbelle!

My workplace is full of recriminations, cursing and pointing fingers. It's hilarious, because it happens every.damned.time we do an installation. People just can't follow directions for shit.

I often wake up all knotted up because I tend to sleep hard. Strategic use of pillows helps.

Punishingly Intricate

I move that we label this day "crappy". All in favor?

Well, things could always take a bad turn but I had the most delicious oatmeal (w/ almonds, dried cranberries, and brown sugar) plus olive bread toast w/ avocado this morning. Plus, I'm taking off for the rest of the week (to see my new nephew in NC!!!) so this is like a Friday for me.

So, I'd rather not label my day "crappy" as it's done nothing to deserve that title.

Although I'm now a little afraid I've jinxed myself!

Okay! In addition to my left hand being out of commission due to hot coffee, I have been alerted that I may be asked to be a bridesmaid for the wedding I am missing VividCon for.

I'm terrifically busy with my ennui.

I have been alerted that I may be asked to be a bridesmaid for the wedding I am missing VividCon for.

If you've got to miss Vividcon (which I am not at all resigned to, and I am working on a time-turner to resolve this issue), you might as well be part of the wedding? Not if you have to spend a lot of money on a crappy dress, though.

I am a woman of various inclinations and only some of the time are they to burn everything down in frustration

Happy birthday, msbelle! I always kind of enjoy the stealth birthdays when no one at work knows. I just like secrets, I guess.

I have been alerted that I may be asked to be a bridesmaid for the wedding I am missing VividCon for.

I'd ask if that makes it better or worse, but from the context, I'm going to guess worst. Does the bride have good taste?

The feeling you get when your brain finally lets your heart get in its pants.

Happy Birthday msbelle!

I'm sorry for the crappy days, other people.

I am drinking my first cup of coffee from my new french press. I think I am unimpressed, so far.

Happy birthday, msbelle!

Today is just the latest crap-work day in a series of crap work days. I have had at least 2 coworkers out since the holidays ended and at one point only one other coworker and I were here.

I hate having to reschedule people, figure out what is going on with their cases from incomplete files, and deal with dropped communication.

The good news-I have another job prospect! I'm really nervous about this one though because it comes through a friend who is a headhunter for creative firms. I won't be terribly upset if I don't get the job (though it does look like a great place to work). I just don't want to disappoint or reflect badly on her.
