Dana, believe me, you are not the only one to feel like that sometimes.
The whole earth may be sucked into Hell, and you want my help 'cause your girlfriend's a big ho?

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
OMG, my trip home was a nightmare. Took forever, stood outside long enough that my boots and umbrella stopped being waterproof, etc. I should have taken an Uber.

I'm sorry, Dana. I hate that feeling.
Only an hour late leaving work (after working through lunch). Am I caught up on everything? HAHAHAHAHHAno. But the one high priority thing that was supposed to be done last Monday is done. I hope, anyway.

OK, I know calling people ma'am or sir is a Southern gesture of respect and all, but to me the person just comes across as obsequious and a bit cringing. Especially when they end every sentence with ma'am. I think I'd rather be called 'hun', which I despise.

Well, it's too foggy to see the sun set, so instead of wine and watching the sun go down (and , really, even if it wasn't foggy there's a house and things in the way) I'm having beer and pizza and watching TV.

At 9:30 this morning, I snapped at my supervisor twice (it was called for, but usually I'm milder.) That set the tone for the rest of my day. I had to shut my door because people were being too loud chatting in the hall, prepping for the division party which I could not attend because of this damned testing, snapped at one of my developers, exhibited too little patience with one of my sweetest testers. Barely managed to shove 2 bananas down my craw while typing one handed, had jabber completely refuse to work (but Sara, you have a new computer? WHICH I HAVENT BEEN ABLE TO SET UP BECAUSE WHEN IM HERE I HAVE TOO MUCH TO DO AND IT DEPARTMENT KEEPS FLAKING WHEN IM GONE) and FUCK punctuation.
Eating dinner now.
This build may get installed next week, but I may alienate everyone around me by then. I'm fucking pissed. We can't keep doing this. I won't.

Sometimes I think I might just move up to Vermont, open a bookstore or a vegan restaurant. Adam Schlesinger, z''l

It's dirt repellent!

It occurred to me that maybe someone in a later timezone would not want to be spoiled! For Master Chef Junior. Whitefont ahoy:
So maybe I'm a little too politically angry right now, but I'm ready to start a riot over the Master Chef Junior results.

See? I gave everybody here an opportunity to tell me what a bad person I am and nobody did, because I fuckin' rule.
Ugh, Hil. That thing is a fucking obscenity. I never fully understood rage-looting-and-smashing, but that thing brings me right to the brink.
