I could use to do Onerous Task Friday with you, Strix. My habitat needs unfucking something fierce.
It's like, in the middle of all this, I'm paranoid that you'll think I don't like poetry.

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.

Every now and then, I think I might actually be a little odd.

My Onerous Task Thursday includes giving the Provost a budget projection for FY15 (which normally wouldn't be needed until March, but he is all over the law school finances right now), and writing a cover letter. Of these two tasks, the cover letter is proving more difficult and more I don't wanna.

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
Yes! We need to revive Onerous Task days. Though some of mine are done now thanks to the cleaning fairies.
Cover letters are the worst.

this mess was yours / now your mess is mine
What 5 things/5 minute long tasks can others do today?
I've got 5 things! Wash dishes, clean out my t-shirt drawer, walk the dog, dust, sort through papers on the table from hell.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
I had my call with the fancy nonprofit, and she wants me to come in! So that's nice. It sounds like the salary would be about what I make now, which is fine, especially because that job would position me better for the next one.... Fingers crossed.

Because books.
Awesome, Jesse!
I have hair color on my head, so my first task is trying not to die from the fumes.

Hahaha! Here's my horoscope:
You will get a lot closer to your goal today, but don't let yourself get too excited about it. If you do, you could let the prospect of success overwhelm you -- and run you off track right at the last minute! So just play it cool and take things as they come. Then, once you're standing at the top of that mountain you've climbed, you can afford to jump up and down and cheer. Having a healthy sense of confidence is wonderful, but getting too cocky about your achievements is not.

Bob's learned to live with tragedy, but he knows that this tragedy is one that won't ever leave him or get better.
If the fumes don't get you, you win at hair color.
I put too much speculous in my oatmeal. That went from 'breakfast' to overly sweet cookie fast. And not in a good way.
Ha! That's a kinda mean horoscope but funny.

All sorrows can be borne if you put them into a story. Tell me a story.
Jesse, your horoscope has earwormed me with West Side Story.
