{{JZ}} That's awful that work is so consistently bad. I'm glad Matilda is being sweet, enjoy it.

Also sorry to hear your boss was such a ninny today, Java
But I understand. You gave up everything you had to find me. And you found me broken. It's hard for you.

[NAFDA] Spike-centric discussion. Lusty, lewd (only occasionally crude), risqué (and frisqué), bawdy (Oh, lawdy!), flirty ('cuz we're purty), raunchy talk inside. Caveat lector.

I am a woman of various inclinations and only some of the time are they to burn everything down in frustration

See? I gave everybody here an opportunity to tell me what a bad person I am and nobody did, because I fuckin' rule.
Thanks, all.
Things are better now; we're watching the PeeWee Herman Christmas special (Hec has it on tape and right now both the cable and the DVD player are crapped out) and Matilda is being an utter boo. Also, Hec made an amazing pasta dinner, full of mushrooms and cream and spinach and oh ah mmmm, and there's a big Ritter Sport square waiting for later. And, best of all, I don't have to go back to that place for two and a half days.
I just... two people. Out of everyone in my work environment, all these lovely persons, two people are fucking it up and making me feel like a crazy incompetent useless piece of shit, on almost a daily basis (and, ugh, I spend so much time around them behaving like a cringing abused dog begging not to be kicked again, it's loathsome). And they're both big and senior enough that, unless I want to Take A Stand and spend the next several years flailing away at it through various official channels (which, no; somebody should, but I just don't have it in me), my options are to suck it up or to leave.
Which I was going to have a sit-down with one of the kindly bosses with all week, but one crisis after another kept exploding and it never happened, and now it's the weekend. I'm'a try to just give my brain a holiday on the subject until Monday.

Brain holiday sounds like a good idea.

Love is stronger than death and harder than sorrow. Those who practice it are fierce like the light of stars traveling eons to pierce the night.

Bob's learned to live with tragedy, but he knows that this tragedy is one that won't ever leave him or get better.
JZ, let the brain take the weekend off on stressing and then talk to the kindly boss next week. Remind your brain that it can't help with this until Monday. So the weekend is for to relax.
erin, I am sorry for your friend's loss.

You were a wrong baby who grew up wrong. The wrong kind of wrong. It's better you hear it from a friend.
bt, that sounds like an AWESOME week. Well, except for Slacker!Grandpa. Is it due to busy schedule? Or is there family friction? Can't imagine wanting to not see such an adorable baby.
Oh, he has his reasons. Slacker reasons.

erin, kitteh~ma headed your way.
JZ, whatever-kind-of~ma would help for you. Sounds massively stressful - I hope it all improves soon.
I am going out for breakfast. Forms will look much nicer over the top of tea and eggs. Ooh, maybe I should go and look for pancakes. Hard to find here. Worth the effort.

Sausages and scrambled eggs...
The universe has forgiven me! We've managed to get a cancellation at the lovely lovely venue, on a *Saturday* (dude!), for a civil partnership date in August. Deposit has been sent. I'm going to be a married lay-dee. Yay.
It's nice when nice things happen to make up for the more irritating things.
Edited, 'cause I really have to stop calling this a wedding. Us in the UK haven't quite won *that* battle yet...
