Natter 72: We Were Unprepared for This  

Off-topic discussion. Wanna talk about corsets, duct tape, or physics? This is the place. Detailed discussion of any current-season TV must be whitefonted.

Yes, at least it was my dog. My dog who has an unerring sense of smell when it comes to rodents, chipmunks and the like.

Now let us crush something soft and watch it fountain blood. That is a girlish thing to want to do, yes?

I've spent the entire morning at the airport. I was going to desk-surf at the husband's office until lunchtime but his calendar went kablooie for the day, so here I am on the crappy (but thankfully free) wifi with the post-graduation people watching and the spending 3 bucks for a single-serving bag of sun chips for lunch and the total failure to get anything done.

Monday solidarity, yo.

I'm shoving pierogi in my face, because if I have to deal with all the things, I deserve dumplings stuffed with potato and cheese.

I just called for a dermatologist appointment to get a mole checked, and got an appointment in August. Good grief.

So say we all.

That happened to me when my whole body was peeling off.

My boss just came in to rant at me. For getting a recognition.

Because she feels it insufficient appreciation the project accomplished (also, could they wait until we were really really really done? Instead of one left to go??)

I just had to laugh.

Major ghost-in-the-machine happening still today (carryover from last week.)

It's going to be a weird week.

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

I am sitting at my desk feeling quite awful, and my eyes are leaking tears. I swear I am not crying, just my eyes are.

And I have a 1 on 1 to discuss my 2014 goals with my boss in fifteen minutes.

How are your sinuses, ita? When I get a really bad cold, my eyes start tearing up because there's a natural drain from your eye sockets into your sinuses that gets swollen shut. So I can be completely calm or happy or whatever and I'm streaming tears down my cheeks.

I have been being driven slowly mad over the last two weeks by a fly (or nanobot spy) buzzing at about 80 db around me. There's a whole house, fly! Buzz somewhere else. It's probably been more than one fly; as one dies, another sneaks in with the dog. It's more exciting at night, when Mr Peabody jumps on me trying to catch the fly.
