When I was around 10, my dad would often tell me I wouldn't make a good parent.
Yeah, most 10-year olds wouldn't. sheesh.
I hate to break it to you, oh impotent one, but you're not the big bad anymore, you're not even the kind of naughty.

I am a woman of various inclinations and only some of the time are they to burn everything down in frustration
Ooh, it does on the iPad. Nifty.

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

I kept thinking it was random! I was wandering around, doing other stuff, and my letters would keep being in a different order. It was bothering me.
Wait, why do I have voicemail again? Why do people keep calling me?

And then Ortus came and said "It's Ortin' time" and they all Orted off into the sunset
Yep, shaking reorders the tiles on iPhone too.

What else besides ramen can you scoop? YOU CAN SCOOP THIS WORLD FROM DARKNESS!
Bank of America's website is down so I can't pay my mortgage. Yay.
Oh, geez, it wouldn't let me sign in yesterday; I tried over a dozen times to pay my damn rent until I finally got through.

Yeah, I think George Will has jumped on the Crazy Train.
Well, I can't see him on the Peace Train and refuse to imagine him on the Love Train, so I can see that.

George Will on the Soul Train would be AWESOME.

Does shaking an iPad remind you of shaking an Etch-A-Sketch? Because that's what it seems like to me.
ION, 3 people in my department of 5 are out today (2 of them all week), and I have to do the jobs of 2 of them plus me. I will be as crazy as Charlie Sheen by the end of the week.
(I laughed in incompetent!boss's face -- not on purpose -- when he asked me seriously if we would be able to meet a deadline for a schedule that he created on the assumption that everyone would be here all week. Uh, yeah, dude. I can do 3 people's jobs, but I still only have 8 hours a day to do them in. Maybe you should try helping. Oh, wait. You can't. Because you don't know how to do SHIT around here.)
This is when I remember I want to keep booze in my desk.

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.
This is when I remember I want to keep booze in my desk.
When I was a kid, I always thought it was cool in those '60s TV shows where the guy has a bar in his office.
Not actually having a bar in my (not) office is more disappointing than not having a jet-pack or flying car....

Compassionately intolerant

This is totes the new 'flipping out like a mammal.'
Stay strong Sistah Steph. You can do it...or at least survive it.
