Burrell, glad it wasn't just me. So then I tried to find the link, but I couldn't think of what to google. Affable, entitled white guy does whatever as long as he's willing to apologize? How to get what you want by being a entitled but not a bully?

I didn't get the impression that the Brontosaurus thing was color coded.

And now verizon is pissing me off. Internet up and down and up and down. I don't even have to reboot the modem half the time, suggests it is them. Rrrg. Need to investigate alternatives.

Ugh. Woke up at 3:30 am and couldn't fall back to sleep. Melatonin, why hast thou forsaken me?

In perkier news, I've just applied for a couple of positions at the WA state board for community and technical colleges, in Olympia, WA. Any Buffistas know anything about the organization or area? It looks interesting online.

mr. flea had a job interview in Olympia in 2000 or so, and I went along for fun, and it seemed like a really likeable small city.

So Dad called me at 12:30 AM, complaining that he'd "slept for more than 12 hours". When he got home from our Father's Day barbecue at like 8 PM.

SIGH.

In other news, I went shopping for bras yesterday, and came home with two dresses, a top, and a pair of leopard-print shoes. And two bras.

Home internet still a putz. Will attempt support tonight but probably switch to comcast in the long term.

My coughing witching hour held true- right around 10 I had a coughing fit. Always. ALWAYS. I do really wonder if something in our ventilation system kicks in then.

I just don't wanna anything.

All I know about Olympia is that the Washington State Supreme Court building is called the Temple of Justice.
