I didn't create the troll. I didn't date the troll. In fact I hate the troll. I helped deflate the troll-- All done.

Dude, I was work-appropriate, but I know that the sexiest thing I wore this week was the red silk-knit turtleneck on Tuesday, with the pencil skirt.

I think think is a key difference - I think turtlenecks can be sexy, but you'd have to work pretty hard to make one work-inappropriate.

Blindfolded, all eggs taste the same.

I think there are other reasons to continue buying local sustainable eggs, but it's an interesting article.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

I have a mock turtleneck I'm not wearing to work anymore because of how it makes my breasts look. But I don't know where anyone else draws their lines.

Happy birthday, Dana!

Happy birthday, Ellie!

I must obey the inscrutable exhortations of my soul—Calvin and Hobbs

I'm in the "last day of the conference" doldrums. Anyone who cares already came by. Now it's all booth staff attempting to look perky at each other. Stuck here until noon and already so done with it.

In a separate post, so as not to infect it with conference ennui:

Happy birthday, Ellie and Dana!

good news/bad news

good news - boss just floated the possibility of hiring me as a part-time contractor post-move to do the work I can do remotely. Good stuff and I can do quite a bit of what I do now remotely with only a little assistance from people in the office (people scanning documents in).

bad news - my co-op is considering raising maintenance and/or having assessments for a largish project. My potential buyer got this info in discovery and is now developing a revised offer rather than signing the contract today as planned. I was not at the shareholders meeting where the possible increases and charges were discussed so I have no idea what amounts we are talking about, but best case scenario is they propose a 50/50 split of a mid-range estimate of a future assessment.
