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

::whew::

Second shot at ER went well, and it was even a UCLA ER.

Checked my work email at 10:00 when I logged in to call in sick again, and the fucking CIO had asked me to cover a 9:00 meeting for her.

FUCK.

She is not the one I want to have to call in sick to, but...that was plenty sick.

Anyway, feel much better although still exhausted and haven't even looked at my combined email inbox today. Thanks for your good wishes.

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

I just showed the kids 28 Cats Having a Way Worse Day Than You. Dang, the giggles and laughter was impressive.

That will NEVER stop making me laugh.

I ended up crying from laughter at my desk today. Don't know if it was that one or the other one. Kittens going BOOMBOUNCE and dignified cats failing, never fails.

A friend posted that on my FB wall about 4 days before the wedding, when I was losing my fucking mind, and it pulled me back from the edge. Thank you, goofy cats. You're doing the Lord's work.

If I wanted a really really shiny lipstick (solid colour, not sheer gloss) what's a good brand to go with? Is a matte lip still in? I don't like it... I have a separate gloss I can apply, but those Maybelline ads are luring me...

Shit! I need to arrange a coffee date tomorrow with sister's friend tomorrow. I wonder if he can be trusted with the deets of her gift....I need to tell someone who knows her.

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

I had tears streaming down my face when I was looking at that. This week has been long enough that cats on the internet is about all my brain can handle tonight.

brillig

I felt to embarrassed for the kitties to be amused at most of them. But some were very, very funny.

Back tattoos of the mother is that you are absolutely right - Ame

Consuela, I don't recall the name but it is on the corner of Grand and Broadway in Oakland.

Megan is my hero. I've also discovered that remembering how to drive a stick shift wasn't the hardest part of driving my dad's Bug...figuring out the headlights was the bigger challenge.

ita,

I am glad UCLA ER worked out for you. Man. Does this mean you are okay for at least a week?
