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.

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.

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.

Everything has to average out, it seems. I am just going to detach. And be mean to people more fragile than myself. What could possibly go wrong with that?

Oh, I'd also like to slap people who are deliberately ignoring the truth in search of a tagline or a crowd-pleasing segment of their show. You fucking know the Mayans didn't say that the world would end this year, Sy Fy. Shut the fuck up. Black comedian, there is a black Spider-Man right now, so it's not bad enough that line saying black people can't be Spider-Man is in your set--it's the one line FX shows in your ad.

And the same (highly regarded) fangirl who posted the not-Olympic not-summer not-fasting not-winning actually-Muslim runner the other day has now posted a Jensen Ackles obvious manip as if it's real. Don't make me not respect you because your fact-checking finger is broken. I don't want you to be an idiot.

Bob bob surprised me like three weeks before my birthday with an iPad! He was super frustrated with my broken arm and nearly broken computer. I don't know what to do with it but post from it!

Aww, that's awesome! Go bob bob.

It's five thousand for kissing, ten thousand for snuggling... End of list.

Heh. That one was just on here recently.

Go bob bob. Nicely done.
