GRR. I suck! I meant to buy Koinobori before today (since today is the day you are supposed to display them for Children's Day) but I forgot. And the Japanese American National Museum isn't open for me to go buy some. I need someone with better internet searching prowess to find where I can go buy them in LA today!
I am not having sex with Spike! But I'm starting to think that you might be.

We're very stretchy. - Connie Neil
I can't stop yawning very loudly, and my office is frickin' freezing and the jacket I'm wearing isn't stopping me from shivering. Combine all this with the fact that when I'm really tired and can't stop yawning, my eyes also tend to water and I'm sniffling because I'm damn cold, so I'm running through kleenex like whoa.
This day really sucks.

I am a woman of various inclinations and only some of the time are they to burn everything down in frustration
I say we all go home and pretend today is not happening.
I'm in.

I remember the crazy days. 500 posts an hour. Nubmer! Natgbsb
I will stay and complete today (we only need one of us to do that, right?) - as I am being productive and doing ACTUAL WORK! In addition to getting some personal stuff done also.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
I think I may have accomplished something today. I'm kind of weirded out at the idea, but tentatively pleased.

weirded out that you accomplished something or by the thing you accomplished?
I am dying trying to get something in writing about my unavailability. Gr. ARgh.

It was a herding cats sort of a task, so it feels weird to finally have it checked off. No worries--I'm sure its place will be filled with five more catherding tasks before lunch is over. Speaking of which, where is my appetite? I didn't even make it through breakfast popcorn!
Speaking of food, my sister wants me to pimp her friend's food blog. I haven't had a chance to look at it in detail, but it is certainly very pretty, and my sister is the sort of person that makes friends with the kind of obsessives that would make good quality blog, iffen you know what I mean.
What unavailability, Kat?

Well, I'm on loan to your employer, ita, until May 31. The contract with your employer and the district ends on May 21. I am being picked up for an extra month at School Site A for the month of June. In my mind and your employer's mind, I am therefore not able to work at the School Site (especially legally since the contract is done) from May 22 to June 1. The principal doesn't like that idea.
