Ah, yes, of course. The gypsies, they gave you your soul. The gypsies are filthy people. Ptui! We shall speak of them no more.

all internet newbies love the weirdfont and colors...I certainly did.And apparently, so does our "graphics designer" here in the school of the arts. I kid you not, this lady is HORRIBLE at making posters, programs, invites. Today's invite to a $125/person event had no less than 5 fonts, not counting the three logos. And was made of a lovely background of night view of a garden (sort of) with lots of blues and greens, and BLUE LETTERING in front of it. Yeah. Way to make it easy to read the thing.

Sorry. Clearly that had to come out. It pains me. As a sound person, I can see the graphics suck. And that is saying something.
Meara, I hope your luggage gets to you soon, and the dressing isn't spoiled. Do write and complain.

Well, now the plane it was supposedly on has landed, and all the people on that plane and I are standing around waiting...20 minutes, still no luggage. At all. Anyone's. wtf??

Yeah, I'm with ND. This was Delta (I did eventually get the bag, and my cold packs had held up remarkably well). But they all have drama, and pluses and minuses. Sigh. Just a mad cranky day--only got 5 hours sleep, and with the delay, no energy/brain to do the work I needed, before bed. Grr.
On the plus side, I got a work email that I might need to go to Portland more, which would be way better than Iowa.

You were a wrong baby who grew up wrong. The wrong kind of wrong. It's better you hear it from a friend.

Still preferable to the ones that forget that part.

Today we're digging through old files all day. Pandora is cranked up to a Big Band station, and we've all placed bets on how long before a country song sneaks into the playlist. (My guess? 90 minutes.)

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
Still preferable to the ones that forget that part.
Or that change their mind partway through.

Teppy, good news about your health care! Best of luck with your last couple of weeks at work.
I'm unexpectedly babysitting today. I guess I should clean up before G gets here.
