It's been chilly and gray here and it's started raining.
This isn't a come-on. I'm in a very serious relationship with a landscape architect.

I failed to pick up more Claritin this weekend. This is a problem.
Bah.
I invoke the FPC: My Nemesis finally replied to my email (I sent her one last Tuesday and then re-sent it this morning), claiming she only got the memo about the change in the project on Friday, which is bullshit. The original change was September 2, and the email I forwarded to her & our boss included a reference to a phone call on that date, with her name on it. She's lying by omission.
I'm so tempted to reply with: "And yet you knew about this on September 2 and didn't feel it was necessary to inform anyone?" Except she would either not reply, or reply with: "Oh, I was busy, sorry." And nothing would change.

Life moves pretty fast. You don't stop and look around once in a while, you could miss it.
I did not get much sleep last night due to A. going out to the movies and not even getting home until 10:00pm, B. having a Diet Coke at dinner, therefore being jittery and amped and C. staying up even later engaging in Marital Duties with my DH, who D. went promptly to sleep and snored LOUDLY.

Still have some sun here, but it is blessedly cool.
I wish it were a law that loaf pans had to have the measurement stamped on. That would be a useful law. I always feel somehow lesser because I have to go measure, that I can't just look at a pan and tell. I am about to make banana bread.

I hate all the claims that taxing the rich is class warfare.
It's not class warfare to make the middle class and the poor poorer. No it's class warfare to make the really stinking rich slightly less rich.

Consuela I'd reply with that anyway.

I dislike your coworker's shenanigans so very much, Consuela. She fills me with rage, and I don't give a shit what her side of it is, so there, Consuela's coworker. Yeah, I got nothin'.

And then Ortus came and said "It's Ortin' time" and they all Orted off into the sunset

"I called IT to have a look at your computer - I'm forwarding you the email I sent on September 2nd so you can show the tech guys that you didn't get it."

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.
It's not class warfare to make the middle class and the poor poorer.
Nor is it class warfare to cut taxes on the rich, like we've done like a billion times since 2000.
No it's class warfare to make the really stinking rich slightly less rich.
Yeah, especially when the rich have gotten almost all the new wealth created in the last 10 or 20 years.

"Oh dear, are the (people who referenced the phone call) making things up? They had listed your name on 02SEP. If they are misleading us we really need to crack down on them, because that's inexcusable. When you found out on Friday were you shocked?"
