Well, a gathering is brie, mellow song stylings; shindig, dip, less mellow song stylings, perhaps a large amount of malt beverage, and hootenanny, well, it's chock full of hoot, just a little bit of nanny.

this mess was yours / now your mess is mine

Arrrgh. So, I've been emailing with the managing editor of another journal about another freelance job. And the job is mine if I want it. So yesterday I sent an email indicating that yes, I do want it, and what are the next steps to go forward?

The fucking email has been coming back with a permanent "undeliverable" error message for 24 hours now. Should I call him? I don't want him to think I'm a flake.

I am a woman of various inclinations and only some of the time are they to burn everything down in frustration

Yeah, that sounds like a situation where calling is a good idea.

They're 1 hour behind me, so if I assume business hours of 9-5, should I call after 10 or so, since there always seems to be some fire to put out first thing in the morning?

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

That sounds right.

I can already tell today is going to be aggravating.

Yeah, you don't want the phone to be ringing just as they're coming in.

Happy Spring! I am wearing my butterfly print skirt to celebrate. Apologies to people who do not have Spring weather yet. And happy Autumn to the southern hemispherical, I think? My googling to find out exactly what time Spring starts tells me that's how y'all roll, so the seasons have weather that we would recognize from the name...

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.

So this stupid Winter is almost over (for Northern Hemisphere folk). The Vernal Equinox is at 9:57 AM board time.

I'm geeking out by watching the declination of the Sun approach 0 degrees. On the Winter Solstice the Sun's declination (i.e. the angle of the Sun relative to the equator) reaches -23.44 degrees. Currently it's at -0 degrees 2 minutes 57 seconds.

MY BIG BOSS NEGATIVE NELLY IS GONE!! Taking another job with the company and I will still have to deal with him but he will not be my boss. No idea who new boss will be though, fingers crossed it is not worse.

Yeah, I was surprised and annoyed to see the snow this morning. Because I blanked out that part of the forecast when I read it.
