Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

Really, brenda? Myself, I'm working on gratitude.

The feeling you get when your brain finally lets your heart get in its pants.

admin lunch was a pretty big disappointment. The food was very blah, no real flavor and the same for the desserts. poop. free though, but blah.

Our lunch is on Friday--I missed the one last year, but heard it was just subway type sandwiches. If they do that again this year, I am going to totally be rolling my eyes at the tacky, since there was a timekeepers lunch yesterday where the managing partner for the office made a joke about how the Chinese food they were serving was much better than sandwiches, and there are a handful of people who go to both.

(was my last comment not obviously a joke? I meant it as a joke. stupid lack of tone and facial expression.)

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

One of my meetings today was with a very phlegmy person. Staying on track was difficult.

And one of my meetings had someone say "Have you had lunch? No? Okay--I'm going to send you this presentation to work on and we'll meet again at 2." Perhaps not dramatically reasonable a thing to say to a hungry person (while you eat...) after 1.

I am going to get some lunch, not from as far away as I'd originally planned, because I'm also going to spend some time trying to shake this headache. And I'll meet again with him when I have something new to say.

I haven't trusted science since I saw the film "Flubber."

We're parked on the couch at the place where we stayed the night, and the daughter of the house (30ish) is home because the school where she teaches closed early today. She's put on "Best Ink", which I guess is a tattoo competition show, and this is the stupidest show I've ever seen.

No, wait, second stupidest show, because there's also a show about people with horrible tattoos.

They refer to people as skins! Creepy!

Thinking of a new username for a site is really hard when the ones you'd normally use are taken.

HOUR LUNCH???? Who does that?

Actually, resting in my car helped a lot. Still, the mac and cheese I bought for lunch tastes too slick for me to eat most of it, but it will keep in my fridge for a while.

This [link] is a very depressing article about why ad-supported sites have to suck. I installed AdBlock this week for the very first time, so now I may be part of the problem. But I'm still trying to see how it changes my experience, and so far not an entire win.
