Wait, is this real-world child support, where the money goes to buy food for the kids, or MRA fantasyland child support where the women just buy Ferraris and cocaine? -Jessica

Or if he did make it up, he's regretting it hardcore.

I want to curl up in a ball and cry. I'm just oversensitive right now, and things are hitting me with the force of a meteor from space.

What can I do? I'm limited in ability by 3000 miles, but I can write you inspirational haiku!

Life moves pretty fast. You don't stop and look around once in a while, you could miss it.

Or if he did make it up, he's regretting it hardcore.

One can only hope.

Ann, that's a ferret.

((((Maria and family))))

And you're probably right not to read the story, made up or true.

Oy, I hate this. I'm all stressed out about this email to My Nemesis. I shouldn't be: it's entirely polite and forthright, asking for clarification and more information on all the projects.

I end with: "As I'm sure you recognize, it is important to the success of the program that information on the status of these projects be shared regularly, so that it can be passed up the chain of command, and so we can all answer any questions from HQ and elsewhere."

I know she is out to undermine me; she knows I know. It's pretty much all in the open. So why am I stressed?

But I hate confrontation, and I suspect she takes advantage of that. So instead I wait and wait until it gets ridiculous and I get pissed off, which makes me look petty and bitchy.

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

Consuela, the invisible people support you in email. You can do this. You must do this. Fuck her.

Does anyone remember the URL of that cheap jewelry site that sold silver and gemstone stuff with the countdown clock?

Art Crawl!!!

Oh god. I'm not going to the link because your reactions are enough to convince me of the depravity.

this mess was yours / now your mess is mine

Silverjewelryclub.com, where the jewelry is "free," but you pay shipping? [link]

Yes, thank you, Steph. I can never remember that URL. I know, that's what bookmarks are for, but it appears I have a problem.

Okay, sent. BAH.

I really enjoy this job, and I want to do it. Why are they making it so difficult? I couldn't even convince my boss it would be a good idea to redistribute some of her work, even though she's got a double workload and can't possibly get it all done.
