Buffy: He ran away, right? Giles: Sort of, more. turned and swept out majestically, I suppose. Said I didn't concern him. Buffy: So a mythic triumph over a completely indifferent foe? Giles: Well, I'm not dead or unconscious, so I say bravo for me.

Cats to become a rabbit should gather immediately now here

A woman with my mom's name was supposedly Reagan's model for the "Welfare Queen" [link] It is very weird to keep seeing her name in that article. Especially since my mom was a Welfare Examiner/Social Worker.

Ha! This last episode of Scandal, where Papa Pope is laying into Fitz best speech ever. Everyone on this show except for David is completely reprehensible. But damn Rowan can speechify with the best of them.

We were supposed to get an Icepocalypse, but that part of the storm missed my town this morning. I was having panic attacks about how bad the commute would be, snow over frozen rain over the ice remnants of previous storms. But it looks like the "wintery mix" will hit during the day. North of here is horrible, though, and I feel a little guilty for how grateful I am.

My sinuses are frelled. Major sinus headache and way too much snot. Plus I have a fuckton of work to do. I'm pretty sure it is air pressure related. We came out of the deep freeze into a few 50 degree days, which went up to the high 60's yesterday and now we are back down to the low 40s with potential snow overnight. Joy.

I sent out a notice to my PMs that I'm going to take as much time off over the next two weeks as possible - so I'm waiting for the influx of "but I need X immediately". Which, I probably won't get until Monday morning.

'we all walk this earth feeling we are frauds. The trick is to be grateful and hope the caper doesn't end any time soon"

Car partially unentombed. I think my neighbor cleared his spot by throwing snow against the front of my car, or else it just drifted up between them. Bad pool, unidentified neighbor.

Cool, my brother just called me with a job for me. For which I will get paid! And I don't have to get off the couch to do it, either.

this mess was yours / now your mess is mine

And I don't have to get off the couch to do it, either.

Couch jobs are the best!

...although I suppose my blood pressure disagrees with that.

I'm working from the couch right now AIFG. I'm also surrounded by kleenex and bottle of water. Wheeee.
