Timelies all!
This weekend will have a big shopping trip for vacation stuff. I need a medium sized suitcase, a couple pairs of slacks(all of my slacks have some cat claw damage on them), a new belt, a cross-body purse and a pair of pajamas.
Simon: You are my beautiful sister. River: I threw up on your bed. Simon: Yep. Definitely my sister.

Fandom means never having to say "But where would I wear that?"

Not so nice is that I'm about to ruin a Friday morning for a bunch of people because of a series of unfortunate events and an upset foreign government. - shrift
meara, I may ping you in the near future about the whole working from home bit. I think you and I have similar work styles, and I'm going to need coping techniques as well as making sure I don't become a hermit.
I think I'm going to miss having people around, and a built-in group to do something with.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
Did I tell you guys about how I was out with some younger people recently and they started joking about how the 70s were the worst, and only bad things happened in 1973? I was like, "HEY!" And then they felt bad because they forgot how old I am.
The end.

I was talking today with my student about Robin Thicke, and mentioned that I was surprised that he was roughly my age. She responded with "yeah, he's really old!" He is younger than I am by about 4 years

I'm trying to figure this out, too. I mean, most of my old team is still in the office, but we're scattered and on different teams and floors. And my new team are all in different offices.

Jesse, that kinda sucks. Same for you, Sophia.
Yeah, shrift. HQ is in NH, and the rest of us are spread across the country. I'm going to have to fight the tendency to isolate myself.

The feeling you get when your brain finally lets your heart get in its pants.

I'm terrifically busy with my ennui.
Lee is the worst.

Yep. I think my biggest issue is going to be similar to someone who works from home, and that's keeping myself on a regular schedule and holding myself accountable when my manager & coworkers aren't there to see me slink into work late.
