~ma for Hil's unruly joints!
I hope the CU comes through for you, Pix and ND.
Okay, gotta stop fucking off on the Internet and get back to work. Right now. Here I go. Yeah.
A year and a half ago, I could have eviscerated him with my thoughts. Now I can barely hurt his feelings. Things used to be so much simpler.

Every now and then, I think I might actually be a little odd.

Tons of CU~ma for the PixDesigns household. Tell them the devil will hound them if they deny you. OK, maybe not that. But still, tons of ~ma. All digits crossed.
Hil, take it easy. Hope the pain subsides.
Bonny, how you doing today?
Smonster, glad to hear sleep did you good.
Aims, hope the sale is going well. Good for you on getting rid of stuff. It makes moving so much easier.
Warning: Work bitch n moan about to start:
We have a dance concert today. ABT comes in every summer and does a month long summer intensive, then hold a recital to show all the hard work the little dancers have done. Fun. We had an all day rehearsal on Wednesday. Went great. Had all day yesterday to do any notes, and what not. No problem. We run some notes this morning to coordinate the lights and sound. Perfect. Then we are all set and ready to go, 25 minutes before the house opens, and they say "can we get a mic for the curtain speech?". Really? You ask that, NOW? Run to the workshop in the other building, get mic and cables. Run back. Quickly set the cable up. Run back up to the mixer to dial it in. Yes, we got it up and running in 24 minutes. NO, I am not happy. Heart rate is racing from the adrenaline. Harshing my calm. Do people not know what a tech rider is anymore??!!?? I could have done this yesterday. I could have made it look real pretty. Heck, I could have given them a nice wireless mic, so no cables at all. Ugg. It's Friday, right?
end of work bitch n moan. No hairpats etc needed. Just hate folks who make last minute requests like that. Not a big deal in the grand scope of things. Just. well. I suck at running. Correction. I don't run. So. Hate doing hasty things. Blargh.

Sometimes I think I might just move up to Vermont, open a bookstore or a vegan restaurant. Adam Schlesinger, z''l
OK, I really have no idea what I'm doing with the video editing, because I can't figure out how to download the file. Oh well.

Guess who's on a 30 day performance improvement management plan? Guess who doesn't trust her manager AT ALL? Guess who's going to be updating her resume tonight, because better safe than sorry?
Fuck. Fuck, fuck, fuck. At least the manager gave me the rest of the day off "to process and review the plan".

My technical writing isn't at the level my boss wants. I'm not doing enough work, and the team is carrying me, even tho' in June the plan was to load-balance my work better because it was determined that having me juggle SIX projects was maybe a bad call. But there's also not enough UX writing work to justify me spending more time with that team.
Like I said, I don't trust my manager. For a lot of reasons, which I'm not going to elaborate on in a semi-public space.

However, I will say that I have now learned for sure that I would rather be an editor than a technical/programmer writer.
