Oh, Aimee, there's nothing wrong with YOU. He, however, is King of the Douchenozzles. I hope he needs something from you very badly and that you've saved the CYA files somewhere safe. If he contests your unemployment, Ima drive over there and slap the shit out of him myself.
New laptop. New week.
Our Ohio house issues are being solved by the HR VP. We should have our paperwork done on Friday and get our $30K (which we need to pay off DH's 401K loan for the downpayment on this house).
We were in Columbus this past weekend to check on the house and get some things done. I also got to go to Nordstrom's for a bra-fitting. I spent too much money on two French bras but damn, they make the girls look fabulous.
I've been very skippity lately, apparently due to exhaustion. All I can think is the tree sex has gotten the better of me. Walking around in a muzzy-headed daze that did not feel any different than the usual wacky-weekend-work-schedule. Until yesterday, that is.
It being Mother's Day, the first thing I did when I got home from work was to call my mom.
She answered.
I enthusiastically wished her a "Happy Birthday!"
"No, wait, that's not right. Your birthday is in August."
Oh, well. I gave her the gift of laughter.
Why is my office minus twelve thousand degrees today??? It's fucking MAY, office! Get with the program!
Between the treesex and this cold, all I want to do is go home and sleep. Unfortunately, my co-worker called in sick this morning too, so I'm here alone with nobody to cover for me.
MASSIVE FAIL, MONDAY!
Why is my office minus twelve thousand degrees today??
One of those days when I wish we could even it out. Rather on the toasty side here. My A/C bill is gonna suck this month.

I am behind everyone in saying that your ex-boss is a tooltastic fucktard, and I hope that the new place hires you soon.
Two words: Consulting. Fee.
I think that I'd be more along the lines of FUCK. YOU., but I'm a bridge burner like that.
My students reached that important milestone in every teenager's life -- the day you realize that the British use "fag" for a cigarette. I gave them an impromptu lesson on the etymology of "faggot" as a slur, pointing up the misogyny component to the homophobia (like a gift with purchase!). Mostly, they were all entranced to hear me use the word I'd forbidden them to use, but I'm hoping that I have added a little extra baggage to it. Like, every time they go to use it they'll have to think not just "forbidden bad word teachers don't let me use" but also "boring etymology lesson."
Boring update: I still feel like ass, but am at work anyway.
Time appears to be standing still.
Aims, he's a fuck with a business that is circling the toilet.
Hmm. Is he also your landlord? I can't remember if the property you rent is his.

He's the property manager, but the building is owned by someone else.
