Simon: I, uh... I never-never shot anyone before. Book: I was there, son. I'm fair sure you haven't shot anyone yet.

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...)

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?

Maybe they will massage your scalp and make you feel better, -t?

I realized that I do have to login to work tonight to do a thing, but I'm going to eat dinner first and have a glass of wine immediately after.

Ooh yes, I vote a scalp massage and a glass of wine...for everyone?

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.

Oh man, that sucks. Is it for awkward "you suck at your job" reasons, or something easier?

I took a walk, had some lunch, came back and got in the pool, and then took a nap for a few hours and had crazy dreams--let me NOT recommend binge-watching Veronica Mars for calm dreams.
