All is well that ends in pizza.

"This bar smells like kerosene and stripper tears."

Aww. Thanks guys. I'm actually doing ok. My boss handled it really well. Transitioning is going smoothly, plus I have some time to say goodbye. Work gay boyfriend did not take my being let go as well.

The good news is I'm sure I will be hanging out with the ones who were closest to me, and I can keep in touch with the others through the miracle that is the internet.

I'm getting the pig!

Crap, DJ. I'm sorry. I'm glad that the situation is as good as it can be, for what it is, but I'm sorry you have to deal with it at all.

Aw, man, that's crappy DJ. Glad they're handling it in a classy way, but still wish you didn't have to deal with it at all.

I’d be lying if I didn’t say that I miss them all tonight…

Damn, DJ! I'm sorry, girl. You should come to SF and we will drown your sorrows in Chartreuse.

Sometimes I think I might just move up to Vermont, open a bookstore or a vegan restaurant. Adam Schlesinger, z''l

Damn, DJ.

Today, I "volunteered" to help run a high school math competition. "Volunteered" is in quotes because all the grad students in the math department were told in no uncertain terms that we would be volunteering. My assigned duties were several hours in the morning, then a two hour break, then fifteen minutes in the afternoon. There were about five of us with this schedule. Had to hang around doing nothing for two hours, just to do fifteen minutes of work.
