I am the fly who dreams of the spider

I took Bob the groundhog about 10 miles away as the crow flies. I'm copacetic with the cute menace perishing. It's like my issue with sticky traps. I wish I could just bomb them and be up front about killing them.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

Thanks Burrell and TB. I think that picture rocketed to the most notes I've gotten just in the time I was off seeing Captain America.

I read something about some of the people from TWOP starting up a new entertainment oriented site. Is it a lot of them? What is the site?

I guess I'm the only loser who's stuck working Saturdays for the forseeable future and therefore going to bed early.

New paid hire finally got back to me about making up her hours. So at least I haven't lost the fairly skilled labour. Still need to have a frank talk about appropriate protocols regarding unexpected absences. I already have her the "respect us and respect yourself" talk on her first day. And even with food poisoning I've been able to message that I'll be late/out. So I already feel disrespected. I'm walking a thin balance of not having anyone to replace her, yet not wanting to put up with any bullshit. And there I'd been all a flutter that I'd had someone in the bag to take D's absence over. (I'd be totally cool with her out-sickness if she'd bothered to contact me before she decided to head home instead of back to work).

Speaking of Cleveland: [link] -- it could also clearly happen in Atlanta or Washington, just for starters, but it's pretty funny either way.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

Do you mean Previously.tv? It's the three founders' new site. So, Sars, Wing Chun, Glark, or Sarah D. Bunting, Tara Ariano, David T. Cole, depending on how formal you want to be.....

That photo is all about microaggression of a sort being called out.

Right, § ita §? I love the WTFery on his face. But it's about respecting the tribes, right?

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

So I grabbed Maria for dinner on her way home from the airport and we got bonus lisah and bob out Team Atomic fund-raising for Moveable Feast! (They'll get my $$ soon enough, not tonight, even if they were styling on the stationary bikes!)

The funny thing is, if we'd gone to one of the two other places I was thinking of, we'd have run into other people I know on teams doing benefits for Moveable Feast. I love this town.
