My sister in working through the weekend, Amy. sigh. Where's the porn, I ask?
Love isn't brains, children, it's blood, blood screaming inside you to work its will.

Yay Steph!
The monster project that I thought we were free and clear from yesterday came back like a bad penny today. Oh well, at least the clients REALLY wanted to hire us to work on it?

Oh no, ita. I'm so sorry that work has become such a mess.

If you're going through hell/keep on going/don't slow down/keep your fear from showing/you might be gone/'fore the devil even knows you're there
I need a certificate for a handmaiden who I only communicate with through text messages who does everything for me.
It's like a magical dreamworld that I never even contemplated.
I really hope it comes true for you. But more than that I wish it weren't so needed.

Speaking of magical dreamworlds, the dog is currently crashed out on a three-high stack of dog beds. (This came about by circumstance, it was not a conscious plan on my part, FTR.) I'm tempted to to slide a pea underneath and call it an art installation.

I, meanwhile, am drinking a badly needed but not-cold-enough beer that I am simulchilling with a freezer pop. CLASSY.

Because books.
Oh, ita. I hope next week when he's really gone everything will smooth out.

Hey, tell me what you like! I'm easy. ::insert winky eye here::

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
tell me what you like! I'm easy. ::insert winky eye here::
Well, now that you mention it...
Tom, English might be the answer, but damn! It's not an article, it's a business document written for US audiences. I take out the "surplus" Us, fix your conjugation!

"And to be clear, I am the hell. And the high water."
A woman hit my car as she was backing out of a parking lot today.
I was all the way out of the space and she apparently did not look and hit my bumper. She is lucky I just wanted to exchange information and not call the police. she didn't have her license with her.
I am okay. She is okay (as is the kid in the back). My car is driveable, the trunk still closes, so now I just have to file reports in triplicate to 10 places.
Did you know in California you have to file a report after an accident? WTF? Especially if the damage is more than $750? I have filled out the report, but I'm waiting to send it until I hear that the damage is that. I assume it is since there is a dent in the trunk and rear bumper. Sneeze on a car and its $1200.
So I was on the phone with insurance for 30+ minutes. Scheduled an estimate. Did a report for California. I feel like I need a gold star for adult business today.

WOO TEP! HOORAY!

You are the wind beneath my wings, brenda.
Also, I think you need a peapod half tucked underneath the bottom mattress so we can still see it, otherwise how will we know there's a pea under there? I'm assuming that that's 21 in dog-mattresses, btw.
So the market segment that they pretty much hired me to analyze is now expected to dry up because of apparent import/export restrictions, and my other accounts are not likely to grow enough to keep me busy. My manager is looking for other opportunities for me. Man, I would not like to get laid off at this point.
Although if I did, I would totally be up for trying my hand at being an instructions-by-text-message handmaiden.
