I remember the crazy days. 500 posts an hour. Nubmer! Natgbsb

your boss is insane.

you may be insane, but kinda depends on your savings and if you are looking at moving home for the search.

ION, I need to get to work like for real, but I was already kinda ready for a break by the time I got to work. This morning I:

did 2 loads of laundry
washed dishes
cooked pasta
packed my lunch
cleaned out two bags from the weekend
put away one drainboard of dishes
made a bed
went through a stack of mail
showered and got ready

But, I guess I've done mostly nothing and I've been at work almost an hour, so that is break enough.

Greece's financial crisis threatens to take down all of Western civilization - a civilization they themselves founded. A rather tragic irony - which is something they also invented. - Jon Stewart

In other news, is my boss insane that she's never heard of using different margins on the second page of a letter where the first page is on letterhead??

I guess is s/he has never dealt with a big letterhead it might be new information, but it shouldn't be shocking new information.

The networking group I go to every two weeks seems to have a lot of non-profit job seekers in it, enough that I think you will have pretty much the same chance of finding a new job in Boston as you would in NY.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

Dag, msbelle, that is some true mom-style Getting Shit Done in the morning!

My boss has been here with our letterhead for 3+ years, so I just don't know.

So, not that good, you're saying? Hmmm.

I am really trying to be in bed (hopefully asleep) by 11 every night and get up at 6. Also trying to add in 30 min of stretching, ab work, or rebounding each day. We'll see how long I last. 1 day so far!

Why did Darth Vader cross the road? To get to the Dark Side!

Just checking in to let y'all know I am a wuss and we decided the noise was raccoons not burglars based on the representative sample we found in the front yard: burglars 0, raccoons 1. I'm still not entirely sure how they made that noise, but my best guess is they were climbing over the neighbor's ivy-covered fence.

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

This story is so...issue-laden. And it's pissing me off.

It's crystal clear from the article that the bride is a transwoman and NOT a gay man dressing up to get a marriage license. She is homeless and therefore can't afford hormones or surgery (or a legal name change), but clearly identifies as female and presents herself as a woman. But the fucking NY Post can't wrap their tiny bigoted brains around a transwoman with a penis, so she must be "lying" about being transexual and cheers her duping the city clerk.

If they really want tolerance points for being pro gay-marriage? Maybe they should quit it with the homo/transphobic BULLSHIT.

(Also, do not read the comments if you value your blood pressure. The NY Post is a Newscorp publication and attracts the same audience as Faux News - 'nuff said.)

Every now and then, I think I might actually be a little odd.

I'm not going anywhere near that article, Jessica. I can't afford to get my blood pressure up that high.

There are tiny black ants in my kitchen. What do I do? I put down ant baits, but that'll take days. Does Borax work? Will it hurt the cats? They seem to be coming in somewhere by the patio and going under the carpet to the kitchen. Industrious little bastards.
