I theoretically have rehearsal tonight from 8:45 to 10, but considering I'd have to leave the house at 8, and would probably arrive to find that the director decided "screw the schedule again", I'm not hugely motivated.
Hey, if it means I don't have to read any more, woo and, might I add, a big hoo.

I'm terrifically busy with my ennui.

I am a woman of various inclinations and only some of the time are they to burn everything down in frustration
One scalp massage and haircut later, I do feel better. I might have a glass of wine now...
Hooray empty cabinets!

Life moves pretty fast. You don't stop and look around once in a while, you could miss it.
Is it for awkward "you suck at your job" reasons, or something easier?
It's for "we have a new owner and you have been really uncooperative with all the changes."

I am the fly who dreams of the spider
Boss had an interview she wanted me to be there for. I was there. Interviewee was there. Boss never showed. Never texted me that she was tied up and that I should proceed on my own. I did, eventually, and later told her that she'd left me in the lurch. She said sorry and then proceeded to list why she was tied up. And I'm still all: TEXT! She refuses all culpability and points to other things to excuse her behavior. Why would I assume that she'd be 45 minutes overlong with a prior appointment?

Boss blew off an interview? Jeez, juliebird, that's hella unprofessional.
Did you text her to see where she was? Because I'd be really embarrassed meeting with someone if my boss had just ... not shown up.

I was totally embarrassed, but figured that waiting for a reply text and her getting her ass to the office would just prolong it, and started the interview myself so as not to waste his or my time. I even delayed the interview with touring him through our art exhibit and other chit chat. Thank god he was still interested by the end of it.
She's on vacation again next week (how does someone on a second probation manage to accrue vacation days, and be allowed to take almost three weeks in one month heading into our busy season?). Hopefully the ED will gave found a way to fire her by then.

Bob's learned to live with tragedy, but he knows that this tragedy is one that won't ever leave him or get better.

I should get on the treadmill or meditate or something before I try to destroy the Earth. I know it's where I keep my stuff you guys, but I've been trying to declutter...

Sometimes I think I might just move up to Vermont, open a bookstore or a vegan restaurant. Adam Schlesinger, z''l
I told my mom that I'd scan our old family pictures that are on slides, if she bought a slide scanner. So, now I'm working my way through 24 carousels of slides. This is going to take a while.

The more I learn, the more I realize how little I know.
Nice.
