It's good to see you, Consuela. Please feel free to chill out a while before you tackle your terrifying to-do list. Many hugs for you around here.
Look, you got a little stabbed the other day. That's bound to make anyone a mite ornery.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
A freezer full of baked goods and meat sounds good, though.
Hey ita, to make sorrel (even though it's the wrong time of year), it's just the flowers and ginger?

I like to think that Obama is checking what Avengers fanfic I read so he can bookmark stuff to read on the weekends.
I wonder if he ships Clint/Coulson or Steve/Tony. I've got some good stuff if he's curious.

I'm terrifically busy with my ennui.
Who the hell underlines page numbers in a journal reference? What kind of whackass citation style is that?

I wonder if he ships Clint/Coulson or Steve/Tony.
Or both! Although the man is busy.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
Today is just a humongous fuckup on my part. I'm angry, embarassed, and frustrated. Apparently "bring all the parties concerned together" is not the right answer to "ita, we're getting nowhere trying to get this other project going, and we only have 2 weeks left." And "I'll create one right now!" is not the right answer to "ita !, can you create one right now!"
If (someone else's) manager is mad at me because I said "you should probably track this last bit", how was I going to get away with "I'm not doing any of the bits, actually, even though the deadline is in ten minutes and there's no way to assign the work and read someone in in that time"?
I really don't get why "Jesus, let's get some traction here!" gets held against me, but the second circumstance where I said "let me convey that information to the central repository where the team will (eventually) assess it" AND THAT'S WHAT I'M SUPPOSED TO DO is as well.
Unrelated to any of those other people, I think I'm the cause of the 3:30 meeting with the CIO being cancelled, not least of all because I ran late for another meeting because of the ad hoc knowledge transfer that prevented me getting lunch.

no joke, rest a spell, Consuela.
Am I wrong to want to catch the flu so I can justify not doing anything for a week?
As it is, I have to run the linens back to the church, visit Dad & plan his trips east, and go to the family council meeting at the facility.
All I really want to do is sit on my futon and read post-apocalyptic Avengers fic. Speaking of which:
I wonder if he ships Clint/Coulson or Steve/Tony.
Hey, he could read het! There's always Clint/Natasha, which I rather like.
