Can't any one of your damn little Scooby club at least try to remember that I hate you all?

I've tried taking a nap this afternoon and it isn't taking. And I feel more exhausted than before I attempted nappage. This is just wrong. Wrong, wrong, wrong.

I think I'm going to try wrapping some Christmas gifts.

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

HOW DID I NOT DRAW THE LINE BETWEEN TORTA AND TORTILLA UNTIL JUST NOW? Lack of familiarity with Cuban food notwithstanding? I am chagrined.

(If you have to explain what a tracert is to the developer, what do you expect him to help you with??? Clearly not a network engineer...)

Why did Darth Vader cross the road? To get to the Dark Side!

Ugh Suela, I'm glad to hear that you took a walk and got a break, but I'm sorry it's been such a craptastic day.

Really, it's been the whole of the last two weeks, and the rest of the year wasn't great either.

Very difficult not to just walk out right now, I have to say...

I'm trying to figure out why "data are" is so grating to me. It shouldn't be!

Let's be active, not passive! Organise the data! Datas! Datae! Datum. It's very flexible. Jilli--please interrupt the presentation, stat.

Ha. No. One of the presenters is terrifyingly blonde and perky. I am lurking safely in the back of the room, and now away from whomever had hosed themselves down with a horrible floral scent.

Suela, I really hope things get better for you soon.

'Suela,

can you leave work early? I think maybe it isn't the best place for you today.

I'm terrifically busy with my ennui.

Poor Suela. Sorry things are the perfect storm of crap right now.

Life moves pretty fast. You don't stop and look around once in a while, you could miss it.

Suela, so sorry. I'm glad you're making sure to find moments to take care of yourself.

And my folks just got in the car to drive back to the old place. Either they get there and discover they don't have a key (in which case my mother melts down) or they get in and discover that it's mostly emptied and kind of a mess, with random piles of stuff everywhere (in which case my mother melts down). And then they call me and I end up hanging up on her.

Oddly enough, they do seem to be getting marginally better, but I'm less and less able to deal. And my sister is at a conference for 3 days in Monterey.

ARGH.
