My last song: Kelly Clarkson's "Walk Away."

That's more of a relationship description than a sex move.

the setting sun is shining into my office window, and yet it's raining. Fascinating.

Welcome to the Black Parade

Oh dear

My last song was Starsailor's "Four To The Floor". I... don't think I want to know how that gets turned into a sex move.

Wait, BOTH tumblr and LJ are down? Not cool, interwebs, not cool.

Uh-oh, mine was "Blue Christmas."

I... don't think I want to know how that gets turned into a sex move.

This is a gimme!

My last song (in my head as an earworm) was Sun Hands by the Local Natives. So I guess my sex move is a hand job outdoors on a sunny day?

Boss is bitter about being cut off at the knees regarding certain projects she considers her purview, and so she's exerting her controll-freakness on me, up including wanting to control my thoughts, it seems. It's been over a year, and I still don't know where I stand with her. Am I the source of wisdom she leans on, since I've been here for almost 5 years, almost on my own? Am I the one she wants to ask how high? Does she want me to use my own initiative when she leaves me without direction? The thing is, it changes depending on the day. I survived a cunt of an ED, and yet I think it is my new boss, whom I like and respect 75% of the time, that may send me packing. Sometimes it's worse when your adversary isn't evil and stupid. Sometimes it's worse when they're awesome and you just have a severe personality conflict and they're feeling emasculated (which, by the by, I need to find a different word for when referring to a woman).

Also, speaking of annoying sexist comments-- back in the day I used to get the "so domestic" snark when my old boss saw me sweeping or washing dishes at work. Now our new ED is throwing out comments like "so girly" about my boss baking. I don't know if that's a man thing or a really thoughtless gay thing, like maybe all the women he knows are hardcore feminists who make the men do the cooking. Or maybe it's him reacting to the fact that she and I are the (excuse me) MEN of the workforce, in that we are the ones to do the heavy lifting, taking out the garbage, shoveling the sidewalks, or anything that is remotely dirty or physical.

We (faculty and staff) were just sent an email from HR with the subject line "Sexual Harassment time."

Um, I know that periodic training in sexual harassment guidelines can be a PITA, but is this really the most appropriate subject line for an email?

Hey, at least it's better than all emails being titled "Fred" because the ED doesn't believe in subject headers.
