Oh, right. I am probably making some big Amazon purchases today, so I should use the b.org link.
I'm forcing myself to do some work. I don't know how long it will last.
Let him do his thing, and then you get him out. No messing with him for laughs.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
I was at a meeting where, for the second time today, I promised to make a speech at my going-away party. I'd better actually think about what to say!

I am making no purchases today.
I talked to my brother last night and he guilted me about my dad's failing health. Thanks, bro. I can't afford to go to Ohio this month because I'm currently choosing between paying for dental work or electricity. Not to mention $16,000 I owe UCLA for Grace's most recent surgery.
Blargh.
I'm not feeling christmassy at all. I'm feeling tired and teary instead.
Also, I am over the Google Doodles. They have them too frequently now and the charm has mostly worn off (Maria Callas today).

I bought some stuff on sale on Kindle: Kate Elliott and Ankaret Wells novels are pretty cheap.
Thus I have contributed to the economy.
Now I should go yank weeds from the yard.

Yeah, no.

Me too! I know the one contributes to the other.

The more I learn, the more I realize how little I know.
I'd better actually think about what to say!

I hope ita is well.
One of my new coworkers had boundary issues. Every time I talk or laugh in my cubicle, she asks me what I am saying or what is so funny. Sometimes I am laughing at all y'all. Sometimes it's a bitter, hollow laugh. Or if I am talking to someone else, she wanders over to find out what's up. Not every conversation has to be a group conversation.
Also, she doesn't seem to get the work/not work boundaries. I am friends with people outside work, but it's not always discussed and dissected at work. And she doesn't seem to see the line. It's starting to grate.

I vote that you move to The Netherlands.

I am here to report that shirred eggs (thank you again, Burrell) over Turkey Hash is pretty fucking yummy.
