I'm terrifically busy with my ennui.

I'm going to kill my coworkers before August, which is when my job actually ends.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

I think it's hilarious that I work somewhere where I just typed the phrase "Dalai Lama project."

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

Have you guys seen these pictures of families with their weekly groceries? It's fascinating. [link]

I got to Chad and didn't want my muffin anymore.

Did you see how some of the Asian families (China, Mongolia) eat more baguette-resembling bread product than the French one? End times, I tell you!

Why did it not occur to me that getting a new DVR from directv would mean losing all the shit saved on the old one?

I am a woman of various inclinations and only some of the time are they to burn everything down in frustration

That looms large in my mind, brenda, so I don't know.

brenda, this is why I keep not trading in my box, which I am convinced is a lemon! Although now that it's summer, I should be able to do it....

Dear god, I hate my employer's website. NOTHING works. Also, could my cats not shred my tax files?

At least now I can clear all the crap I don't watch from my subscriptions, since I no longer have any.

Like moving and not taking the boxes you haven't opened from your last move. Nice.

I am bored enough that I just measured my cubicle. 4 sq-m, 8m perimeter.

Eta: sounds bigger in Imperial, 44 sq-ft

'we all walk this earth feeling we are frauds. The trick is to be grateful and hope the caper doesn't end any time soon"

Yesterday's decluttering of the porch uncovered a couple of those boxes. (Unopened from presumably the last move) And more to come.

Seriously I found a bunch of office things from my job at Lotus... that ended in 1992.
