Blowtorch?
The consciousness thing is just not working for me this morning.
Inara: So. Would you like to lecture me on the wickedness of my ways? Book: I brought you some supper, but if you'd prefer a lecture, I've a few very catchy ones prepped. Sin and hellfire... one has lepers.
'Serenity'
Natter 56: ...we need the writers.
Off-topic discussion. Wanna talk about corsets, duct tape, or physics? This is the place. Detailed discussion of any current-season TV must be whitefonted.

Our wings are not tired.
I go with the nasty bleaching chemicals for mildew. eta: this is probably horrible for our fragile water table so I should find a better way. Right now the mildew is enjoying my neglect.
They were talking about the primary and many older voters not voting in the Democratic primary because they are mad about it not counting. Yeah, that will be helpful. They are still going to the polls because of the tax amendment.

I've had decent success with Mr. Clean Magic Eraser on both tile (great on shiny tile) and grout (which is usually the bigger problem.) I do bleach occasionally, and Mr. Clean Magic Eraser in between bleachings.

I remember the crazy days. 500 posts an hour. Nubmer! Natgbsb
mac is officially in a behavior backslide. Not uncommon around the 1 year mark in adoptions. He acted out at afterschool yesterday (took a marker to another child's face, then his own) and was a pill this morning to me (not minding, not answering, walking away repeatedly). Apparently I am mean to him and nice to everyone else, also, I am going to die. Anyhoo - onwards and upwards.
Work is a bit wound up this morning - apparently someone gave a temp their log in and password - unsurprising IT security head is not pleased.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
Hey, we're all going to die.
Am I crazy to find it incredibly disheartening that my boss really doesn't know what my last name is? I guess I have to tell her explicitly, and not rely on the dozens of emails and etc. I send her every day. For the past year and a half.
I did just send my resume to a recruiter.....

Art Crawl!!!
We're getting a crazy winter storm apocalypse here today - made crazier but the 40+ degree weather this morning.
Yikes.
So excited by the Farscape news.

If you're going through hell/keep on going/don't slow down/keep your fear from showing/you might be gone/'fore the devil even knows you're there
Good god. The temp here is supposed to go from 46 to 2 today.
Jesse, some people are really just boneheads about things like that. But it's got to be discouraging. Feh.

Now tagless for your comfort.
My friend in NYC is going to see Patrick Stewart in Macbeth in March. I hate her!
Farscape news is good news!

Punishingly Intricate
Am I crazy to find it incredibly disheartening that my boss really doesn't know what my last name is?
That would drive me crazy.
I thought I had sarameg's phone number so I could call and re-offer a ride this morning but I didn't and now I feel bad because she had to walk in the icy rain.
And I was having travel + work anxiety dreams this morning. I dreamt I had to share a shower (er...not shower at the same time...use the shower after) my cranky, annoying co-worker and he'd used my towel and left the room a damp mess! ew! Plus I had 40 minutes before my plane was to leave and i had to go back to my house from the airport to take care of my pets before returning to the airport for my flight. And I was flying to FL to give a presentation I hadn't practiced AT ALL.
It's been a very stressful day already!
