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

What do we think about roasting and then freezing root veg? I could re-heat in a hot oven and they would come out OK, right?

I am highly in favor! IME, works great.

Congratulations, Frank!

Strix, that sounds like a really uneven friendship. I'm sorry she decided to end it in such a cowardly manner.

In other news, I hate Articulate.

Punishingly Intricate

We're playing a 90s show tomorrow night. A benefit. Am nervous about playing but I think my outfit is good--overalls, Docs, and a teeny tiny Tupac teeshirt.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

I am highly in favor! IME, works great.

Exxxcellent!

Holy crap. Just got an e-mail that one of my co-workers died last night. I was talking with her yesterday and have worked with her since I moved to Colorado five years ago.

So far no explanation of how - just that she "passed away unexpectedly". I'm stunned, shocked, reeling... She is just a bit older than me and has a daughter, about the same K-Bug. I.... Crap. Crap. Crap.

Yay Burrell's sister being a bit better.

Boo kiddos who can't get their shit together to do homework or pass classes. God knows what I'll ever do if I have kids like that--my slacking off was, like, getting a B. I wouldn't have the faintest what to do with them.

And if I WEREN'T doing well with my depression, this last week would have me in a shuddering mess on the floor, and instead of going semi-catatinic, I'm PISSED, applying for jobs, and cutting my hair and doing housework. So fuck her.

Aw. Sorry about the friend Strix. Think she'll come to her senses? 20 years is a lot to throw away.

First project for the brand new head of the business I support, a guy who is very senior and known in this industry. One of my guys forwarded me his reaction: "I think she nailed it."

Kick ass, Brenda!!

I’d be lying if I didn’t say that I miss them all tonight…

Suzi, I am so, so sorry.

Good going, Brenda!

One day Adobe products will make an easy and seamless transfer from one computer to another with no complications, and I will most likely pass out from the shock.

Ann, that's a ferret.

All sympathies, Suzi and workplace.

Suzi, I hope you are okay. It is so shocking to lose a work-friend.

I rode the bus in to work from a presentation in the community this morning, and it's been 20 minutes and I still smell STRONGLY of the terrible perfume someone on the bus was wearing. Any tips on how to de-stinkify myself? I took off my jacket, and I'm at work, so further efforts need to be work-friendly (like, I cannot take a shower, or rub a lemon on myself, or stuff like that.) I mean, I can BARELY STAND myself. HELP.
