Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.

Today's been one of those "I'm not really hungry so I'll get one of those tiny sandwiches from Potbelly" days.

I need to go outside and attempt to shelter some plants that really won't like 12 degrees. I keep putting it off while the temperature drops like a rock.

I'm going outside. Now. Really.

It is insanely freakin' cold in our office today. Like, long underwear and cashmere and scarf and hat and still cold cold!

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

I have fallen down a Ryan Gosling dimension.

That sounds nice.

I have also attended all the meetigns I am going to today and am now having trouble making myself work even though I am IN THE OFFICE. Come on, self. Maybe I should take a lunch break and go buy some rabbit food.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

The pain people have told me to go to hospital. I'm not sure what for. So I'm just tidying up some things and will toddle off.

So if you don't hear from me...I dunno.

I must obey the inscrutable exhortations of my soul—Calvin and Hobbs

I hope the hospital can figure out a way to get you some relief, ita.

I'm waiting on chat with a representative for my printer manufacturers. Three days ago it fell off the network. I've worked with tech support for hours the past two days trying to get it working again. I'm not sure what I'm expecting to happen today, but it's not like I have a job to go to.

Oh, yes, the job in my dream area for which I was perfectly qualified took less than 24 hours to reject me. Go Midwestern efficiency!

I haven't trusted science since I saw the film "Flubber."

Oh, boo, Calli.

I'm sorry, Calli.

Good luck, ita, I guess? Meep.

'we all walk this earth feeling we are frauds. The trick is to be grateful and hope the caper doesn't end any time soon"

I have an in-person interview on Monday! I should probably be more apprehensive about it. Maybe I will build up to it gradually.

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

Thanks, tommy. You just made me go to Potbelly. As soon as you posted that I realized how starving I was.
