And then Ortus came and said "It's Ortin' time" and they all Orted off into the sunset

I scanned a bunch of old pictures from my grandmother's house last December when I was in Cincinnati for my grandfather's funeral.

I love this one of my parents, mostly for the fact that my mom looks so much like my sister in this one that my dad didn't believe it was her. For reference, in 1989, my sister looked like this.

And here I am age 6 months and probably age 6-ish (there was no date on the back).

Cranky today.

My vcr remote died. I know, I know. But I don't have a tivo, and 2 shows are on at once.

I'm terrifically busy with my ennui.

Why is cancelling my electric service a difficult thing? Surely this is something people do every day! Release me, Texas company!

I'm loving all the childhood pictures. Thanks, Shir!

I only have one or two here and no scanner. All that stuff is at my parents'. Which reminds me I promised I'd take them into work. I'd love to share one of my mom camping, either early in the marriage or courtship. She's sitting on a boulder and has got cute bedhead and rumples and you REALLY wonder what they'd been up to just prior. And she looks 12. OK, maybe just to me, but...no. She looks 12. She had to have been at least 20.

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

Am trying so hard not to send a fuck you email to someone at work. Same jackass as the Clinton comment the other day. I'm not laughing now.

I am livid. I am fucking shaking I'm so pissed at this email he just sent me and his fucking entitled, disrespectful behavior. Asshole.

A dress should be tight enough to show you're a woman but loose enough to flee from zombies. — Ginger

Er, what did he say, Brenda?

And FWIW, step away from the keyboard. Assholes are not worth work write-ups, however enticing it might be to send the well-earned "fuck you, fucktard" fuck-offmail.

brenda, is it general jackassery or political? Because if it is the latter, you might have workplace rules that might put a kibbosh on it. And if it is general jackassery, time to use the fwd tool....

I really resented the email during 2000 telling us to be respectful and keep a lid on it. But then there was a shouting match and a thrown coffee filter in the hall, and really, adults should be more so, BUT. Among my close coworkers, we happily give each other shit, but there are lines we don't cross. Saying shit we aren't sure if it is insulting is one of those lines. We only insult with intent...
