because it deserves a new post (((((amy))))), way too much to deal with.
Natter 67: Overriding Vetoes
Off-topic discussion. Wanna talk about corsets, nail polish, duct tape, or physics? This is the place. Detailed discussion of any current-season TV must be whitefonted.
For everyone having a bad day, because it cheered me right the hell up-a cat trying to fit into a water bottle. [link]
Oh, amyth. So much love and strength to you.
I was just telling my co-worker that I just hope that she doesn't die today, because I really don't want to miss E's wife's wake tonight, and she said, "I...don't know what to say to that."
That reminds me of a conversation I had with a good friend back in July, just after M's brother died, and I was going on about how awful the situation was, and he said, "Oh my god, I'm just glad you're not on fire!" It was one of the few things to make me laugh that week.
So, yeah. I'm glad you're not on fire, and I'm glad your brain is protecting you as much as it can. We are thinking of you and holding you in our hearts.
Hee, Daisy. That was so great. I love the bit where the cat looks at the camera, all, just give me a damn drink of water, okay?
Hey msbelle, just think about how awesome it will feel once you're doing it. Now go and APPLY FOR THE DAMN JOBS ALREADY.
I'm going to go write the note I was supposed to do "after the holidays."
{{{amyth}}} I agree with everyone else; your brain is just keeping the rest of you safe, disconnecting you from the full weight of all the badness so you can keep functioning and soldier on until you get to a place and time where it's safe to collapse. At which point you'll have about a billion offers of sympathetic ears and shoulders and comforts of any sort you need. I just wish you didn't need it. And the universe needs to back off you and all your beloveds NOW.

It's still after the holidays. You're good.
Yeah, I've got a bunch of stuff to do today but am having trouble doing it. I want a nap. And some tea. Not in that order.
Hee. So there's this high school friend who is geektastic and is exactly like all of you. And she just posted on facebook: "My boss just interrupted me intently browsing Google Image's search results for "sharktopus". He didn't say a word."
NatGeo says that today is Penguin Awareness Day.
