Love is stronger than death and harder than sorrow. Those who practice it are fierce like the light of stars traveling eons to pierce the night.

I have an unexpected day off, after several vacation days. The house I was scheduled to work at tonight, several of the people there are going to their family homes for the holiday weekend. The rest of the staff who are scheduled to work are part-timers and do not have much in the way of PTO to use. I, on the other hand, must find a way to use at least 100 hours this year, as I have accumulated up to the limit they allow us to carry over.That does not include the ten floating holidays which they give in lieu of holiday pay. So anyway, me taking an extra day off now will not hurt my paycheck. It is sunny, 63˚F, breezy, and it won't rain until 7pm or so. Fed Ex just delivered the new white 1500 thread count sheets I got on clearance at Amazon.com. So I have popped them in the washer, and wiped down the clothes line (first time of using it after the long, long, long winter. Tonight I shall sleep in fresh, sun-dried luxury.

Envy me.

If you're going through hell/keep on going/don't slow down/keep your fear from showing/you might be gone/'fore the devil even knows you're there

Connie, I'm sure they are much prompter when there is actually something to report.

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

Last mammogram I got, the results were available online after a few days. That was nice.

I'm intensely curious about the glassdoor reviews of this place, but probably not enough to sign up. Certainly not while I am on their computer.

Sounds great, Windsparrow!

I must obey the inscrutable exhortations of my soul—Calvin and Hobbs

That sounds like a lovely day, WindSparrow.

I hope your appointment goes well, Strix.

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

Thank you, Jessica! Insent...

The meeting I was just in ended with "Let's pick up after lunch! 12:30?"

Well, it tried to end with that. I made it end on "I need to actually get lunch--I'll be back in time for you to make your 2:00."

My office is closing early today, but I am leaving at my usual Friday time because we are all uncertain how that would work with the contracting agency. But my day ends at 3 normally, so I won't be here all by myself for long, if at all.

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.

My boss just texted me that I could leave at 3:00. And then I have the next nine days off!

I'm terrifically busy with my ennui.

Woohoo, tommy!

See? I gave everybody here an opportunity to tell me what a bad person I am and nobody did, because I fuckin' rule.

There's a drum circle going on outside. For Staff Appreciation Month. Just for the record, this does not make me feel appreciated. Not even with the FREE MOON PIES (while supplies last).
