Can't even shout, Can't even cry. The Gentlemen are coming by. Looking in windows, knocking on doors. They need to take seven, and they might take yours. Can't call to mom, can't say a word. You're gonna die screaming but you won't be heard.

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

It should! As I understand the kids today, it means "fuck my life". Which is how one announces that something has not gone to plan.

not your mom's socks.

I'm sorry for your loss, Jesse.

I'm so sorry, Jesse.

I haven't trusted science since I saw the film "Flubber."

I'm sorry about your grandmother, Jesse.

Back from Europe! Not really wanting to log into work and see what I have to deal with.

Our wings are not tired.

I'm sorry, Jesse. Peace and strength to you and yours in the coming days.

"I keep to a strict diet of ill-advised enthusiasm and heartfelt regret." Leigh Bardugo

Ugh, zen, that does sound like drama. Was the drama of deactivation related to you or just overall?

When my first response upon arriving to work is "well, fer fuck's sake" you know it is going to be a charmer of a day. Capped off by a dental appointment.

I haven't trusted science since I saw the film "Flubber."

And logging into work, I have discovered that my flaky coworker, who was hired in January, has resigned and her last day is August 30.

I wonder if this will affect my theoretical end date of September 30.
