I have ripe figs on the tree in my yard. Fig ideas, anyone?
Wrap them in bacon and bake them in the oven? Or eat with blue cheese and a drizzle of balsamic vinegar.
I had a whole section about civic pride.

Why did Darth Vader cross the road? To get to the Dark Side!
Oh my gosh y'all, you're making me want figs!

I had some this week during fruitapalooza, and they were very good. Though they go bad sooo fast, it's not fair.

I would LOVE some figs.

I'd never had fresh fig until several years ago when my cousin plucked a sun-warmed one off her tree in Austin and handed it to me. OMG. I'd always liked newtons and preserves, but fresh? OMG.

I love how huggy the women swimmers are.

Every now and then, I think I might actually be a little odd.
Has anyone else seen the new lolcat/meme thing where they say "ermagerd"? I just this minute realized it means "oh my god" and not Ermengarde (the old fashioned name).
Have not seen, but like. May use. Ermagard.
Took nap, feel worse. Woke up with head ringing, could hear my eyeballs move. Now feel exhausted. WTF.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
So my boss has put a hold on this weekend's installation activities, and if we do them next weekend, we risk sliding deadlines. But until he hears back from my manager--freeze.
He will have to deal with this tomorrow, because it's seven PM, and I feel like major shit, and I'm off work email, and about to stop answering the phone.
I'm not invested, because I've done everything required to make the deadline, and this is other people's problems. There is no more unshiftable deadline this year than this one, so fuck around with it all you like. I reserve the right to be sick at seven PM.

Your work has been an utter shitstorm lately. I'm sorry.

ita !, I'm so sorry your work has been so horrible lately.
I'm no longer tipsy. And I got everything priced and packed for the event tomorrow! All I have left to do is grab a stack of GCS books and pack snacky food.
