"You can't put a price on the joy of not giving a shit." -Zenkitty

I'm not interested in having kids or being in a relationship. I think my family's come to terms with the first one, and is baffled by the second.

I've mostly got my shit together, partly through reward systems and bribery and To Do lists and putting absolutely everything in my Google calendar. I can't seem to get everything together, and I'm working on not being so hard on myself about it. Because I guess I kind of do a lot, and maybe I should be impressed with myself that I'm not hiding under the bed?

And I'm trying to do things now, rather than just thinking about doing them. And that is why I went to London, and soon Hawaii.

"There are few hours in life more agreeable than the hour dedicated to the ceremony known as afternoon tea."

shrift, what Consuela said. Also, does anyone ever really get everything together? Aren't most people just pretending that they have everything together? Or am I just fooling myself?

does anyone ever really get everything together?

I am 54 and I don't, that's for sure. In fact it feels like I'm regressing instead of progressing, especially since I've been unemployed.

I hope so. Otherwise I've been fooling myself AND everyone else.

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

Most of my issues revolve around the fact that I'm not Tina Fey. WHY AM I NOT TINA FEY?

shrift, I'm impressed by the amount of walking you do!

In other news, when I actually sat down and DID the work, it didn't take that long. Work-wise, I think I am ready for vacation! (Other than actually taking the UPS things to the UPS store, but they're all packaged up and ready to go)

Of course, I haven't even started packing. Or figuring out what I want to wear while there that will both look good, and not make me pass out from heat.

Archive of Our Own Vorstigan fic has an amazingly high percentage of really high quality works. Archive of Our has a higher signal to noise ratio than a lot of fanfic collection, but the Bujold fic is on the high end of that curve.

Because books.

Most of my issues revolve around the fact that I'm not Tina Fey.

Most of mine revolve around the fact that I'm not Samantha Stevens. Sadly.

Every now and then, I think I might actually be a little odd.

Also, does anyone ever really get everything together? Aren't most people just pretending that they have everything together? Or am I just fooling myself?

The only way I could get everything together is if I got rid of 90% of it. And to get rid of it, I'd have to get it all together, so it ain't happening.
