Almost there, Dana!
No, it's shiny! I like to meet new people. They've all got stories...

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
I recently realized that all of these animal cams are the actual manifestation of the Puppy Channel, of This American Life fame (?)!

Because books.
Those multi-colored cats are gorgeous. Their coloring looks like a painting that got wet.

Walter is waking up and fine, minus three teeth. He'll get canned food only for a while, so he'll be happy with the outcome.

Good luck, Dana!
As for me, I had a conversation today I dearly wish could have taken place three years ago, in which I laid out all the myriad problems with the way my program is managed by the agency, and the way the funding process hampers it and how we need to focus on management and engagement and partnership. And these senior managers were very kind and thankful and it sounds like lots of what I think are good ideas will be implemented.
There's even a chance My Nemesis might be edged slowly out of her leech-like hold on the program.
And I won't be here to see it. And that just guts me. So fucking unfair.

Aw, Walter!
And I won't be here to see it. And that just guts me. So fucking unfair.
That really sucks. I'm sorry.

Safe travels, Dana!!
Consuela, that place is a mess, and I am confident you will be greatly appreciated in your next job.

Scrappy Sparky, congratulations on your DH's Geneva job!
Consuela, I'm sorry the senior managers didn't listen to you earlier.

That's great that you got to have that conversation, Consuela. I hope they do take it to heart, even if you aren't there to see things improve.
