I'm always happy to put the smack down on someone else's behalf. I get to feel all righteous and shit. Way more so than when it's for me.

I feel ya shrift, I really, really do.
I'm just burnt out on all levels. Friend asked me (specifically about work) when it would let up. "When I get used to it." Everything feels that way right now.

I remember the crazy days. 500 posts an hour. Nubmer! Natgbsb
Honestly, doing that might be my dream job.

Because everything's on fire? Yeah, I just got back from 5 days off and I'm already overwhelmed again.
I was told that I needed to be more visible. Now I'm too visible and everyone's sending me everything.

I haven't trusted science since I saw the film "Flubber."
The news is warning that if you see any alligators around thanks to the flooding, not to mess with them. Or snakes.

this mess was yours / now your mess is mine
I think that if I saw any alligators even if there *weren't* any flooding, I wouldn't mess with them. Just to be sure.

Presumably that's the sensible course, but this is Texas. (Also, the alligators may be in unexpected places, like streets.)

Life moves pretty fast. You don't stop and look around once in a while, you could miss it.

This made me laugh SO HARD.

I am a woman of various inclinations and only some of the time are they to burn everything down in frustration
Too bad "don't mess with alligators" doesn't rhyme

Fandom means never having to say "But where would I wear that?"
Timelies all!
The power went out here at some point last night, and was out for long enough to mess up my alarm clock, so I overslept. I should have realized something was wrong when I looked at my clock the first time Nova woke me up, it read 3:00, but the sun was out. Instead I went back to sleep. Ugh.
