Guys, my main office pal is getting fired. As Director of HR, I have to fire her a week from Friday and I can't of course, tell her. Sometimes my job is NO FUN.
I don't really have a security blanket... unless you count Mr. Pointy.

Life moves pretty fast. You don't stop and look around once in a while, you could miss it.

Now let us crush something soft and watch it fountain blood. That is a girlish thing to want to do, yes?
Ugh, Scrappy. That's easily the thing I'd hate most about HR work. Or boss work in general.

Because books.
Oh, Scrappy, ugh. I'm sorry.
Yay for a letter, Consuela!
I scored a ghostwriting gig today! I'm so happy!

Fandom means never having to say "But where would I wear that?"
Timelies all!
Happy Birthday tommy!
Yay Consuela!

That totally sucks, Scrappy.
Thanks, folks. I wish I were more enthusiastic about going back to work for Former Employer, but a job's a job.

Yay, offer letter!
Ugh, that sucks, Scrappy!
Oh, my god, how is almost 6pm already? I should take my laptop home tonight in case the storm causes any transit shenanigans. But I'm not going to look at my work email tonight after I power it down.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
Yay, Amy!
Boo, Scrappy. That really sucks.

I am a woman of various inclinations and only some of the time are they to burn everything down in frustration
Yay offer letter!
Ugh, Scrappy, that's rough.
Yay ghostwriting!
I am all frustrated with work and would like to spend some time crying, but I have an appointment to get my haircut and I don't have that sort of relationship with this stylist (I don't know if I have that kind of relationship with my regular stylist but she is out on maternity leave and I haven't even met today's hair expert...)

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
I'm sorry, -t. Can you make any time in between?
Amy - Mar 11, 2014 2:02:35 pm PDT #22060 of 30000
Because books.
Can you postpone, -t? Or maybe by the time you're done there, you'll feel a little better?
