And then Ortus came and said "It's Ortin' time" and they all Orted off into the sunset

Oh Jesse, that's great news and probably really frustrating! Not that you want the outside party to be angry but you kind of wish they'd be just mad enough to really appreciate your apology?

I have spent DAYS on this. As has my boss. And five minutes later, everything is fine

Isn't that funny? And yet, good on you for being over-prepared, because if you weren't, it might have turned the other way. So hard to tell.

Jesse, I know that is anti-climatic and super frustrating, but also better than people being really upset and wanting to hash things out with you, right?

I have no idea what is going on today, but I feel like crying and I want to go home and get in bed. wah.

So true!!

Glad it turned out to be no big deal. Sorry for all the heartburn.

All sorrows can be borne if you put them into a story. Tell me a story.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

Oh no, it's awesome! And all of the internal stuff was really necessary. Possibly more fraught than it needed to be (because of Reasons), but necessary.

The Great Gatsby is one of the classics that could be improved by vampires.

Something that could be said about a lot of classics, in my view.

I think Gatsby could use a really violent home invasion a la Criminal Minds. That would improve things.

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

My god, woman, you're just really sick. Tsk, tsk.

I think the only reason I'm working from the office today is because I promised myself petticoats. Pink and white and Mary Janes and vintage, yeah.

But I think the mojo is wearing off...
