"This bar smells like kerosene and stripper tears."

Give me strength. I'm working with a person who has been here since November, and I don't think she knows what she's doing at all. Aside from all the questions about things that have been basic job functions since she started. She does random shit like, picking herself which movies we're going to call exclusive, basically closing out a ticket 2 releases early.

I just don't even...

not your mom's socks.

I learned when Sox was here that I very much like other people to use my kitchen to make me things to eat

we liked that too!

We are doing a bike tour of Connemara and the Aran Islands. Plus a few days in Dublin. !!!

Jealous! We had a wonderful time a few years ago. Are you going out to Wicklow, just outside of Dublin? There's a beautiful estate there. We also got to visit the lovely Jars and her DH in Cork! And walking James Joyce in Dublin was one of my favorite things (passages from Ulysses are bronzed into the streets) ever.

Ok hushing now.

For my 30th birthday, my BFF and I rented a car and drove a big U from Shannon to Dublin around the southern part of Ireland for 10 days. Awesome.

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

The DBA wants to roll out his changes at 7am. The code deployment people want to roll out their changes at midnight. I want some time to go to the ER. Without, you know, telling anyone I need time to go to the ER. Is that too much to ask?

Our wings are not tired.

Vortex, what a great way to mark turning 30!!

Yeah, I really want to do that Joyce walk, Sox. I didn't do Dublin on that trip because I was very broke and could get a lot more for my money staying in little B&Bs and wandering.

I lived in the UK for six years and we never visited Ireland. Just never came up.

Okay, so maybe I take my work laptop to the hospital? I can't work out how to accomplish all this.

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.

ita, can you just tell them you have some plans tonight without mentioning what they are?

We're very stretchy. - Connie Neil

After I lose my weight and then finish off my master's, I'm hoping I can afford to take a few trips to the UK and Ireland. I've never been anywhere--I've never even had a passport--so it's definitely something I want to start doing as soon as I can get the money saved.

Punishingly Intricate

I love the way biking lets you experience the countryside so I'm really looking forward to that. It's a 7-day tour and includes an overnight on one of the Aran Islands!

Smokey cube mate is really smokey today. Blech.

UGH! I'd hate that. I've gotten more and more sensitive to smoke as I've gotten older. For some reason, maybe brand or amount smoked? Some smokers smell way more strongly of smoke than others.
