(a) Why is nobody posting today?
(b) Why did my coworkers not tell me about last week's big departing-colleague news???
Illyria: Wesley's dead. I'm feeling grief for him. I can't seem to control it. I wish to do more violence. Spike: Well, wishes just happen to be horses today.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

I am a woman of various inclinations and only some of the time are they to burn everything down in frustration
(a) I have work to do! Which is nice, actually. And right now I'm at lunch and forgot to bring reading material, so now would be a good time for people to get chatty.
(b) they thought you already knew?

Thrive to spite them
I haven't done much today. The city is replacing a water main and if they told my landlady in advance she didn't tell me. I woke up after the work started and the water has been off all day.
I was planning to do laundry today but that's not happening.

Punishingly Intricate
Would someone please shop my closet to find something for me to wear to my cousin's wedding on Saturday? I'm failing at planning! And will have no time to shop between now and then. The high is only supposed to be in the high 50s so that means I won't have to get a pedicure anyway. But what outfit? What shoes?

askye, that's better than when the city shut off my building's water, six hours before they announced they would, while I was doing my laundry.

Because books.
I have been tearing through work like crazy.

Sure! Find me the teleporter and I'll be right there. That sounds way more fun than reviewing error messages.

That's the pain / That cuts a straight line down through the heart / We call it love
I just found out a good friend is moving back to town. Yay! Now I get to do some house-hunting for her. I hope she moves to our neighborhood.
I don't have much else to report at the moment. Oh, I got the first volume of Saga from the library a few days ago and started it last night, and I'm loving it. Want to go home and read more!

I'm on the fence about Saga. I read the first volume, and I'm already annoyed by Vaughn's tendency to introduce really compelling characters, then immediately kill them off .

It turns out that at least one of them wasn't sure how public the news is. I don't see how she thinks she's that much closer than I am! It's not like he told them over drinks! His last day is Friday. Jesus, people.
