Again, not uncommon in the industry, but diverging drastically from our main contract.
We're still working on a plan, but so far it involves being sent to prison and becoming somebody's bitch.

I must obey the inscrutable exhortations of my soul—Calvin and Hobbs
I'm sorry, Lisa.
Sarameg, that sucks. I worked for a lousy company that held my organization's contract a while ago. We managed to get our organization bought out by another, better company. I hope you get a similar (or better) resolution soon.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
Oh Lisa, I'm sorry.
It sucks but knowing how passionate he is about wanting to help people and do what he can to prevent such tragic endings helps.
Yeah. Someone has to be there for those people

I'm so sorry, Lisah.
That's sucks Sara. I hope some form of insurrection works.
There's a great line from the Canadian cop show Flashpoint: "We are catching people in the worst moments of their lives. The very worst moment. Now, what do they got if they don't have us?"

Fandom means never having to say "But where would I wear that?"
Timelies all!
I'm sorry, Lisa.
Woke up at ~2:30 am for no apparent reason. Did fall back to sleep quickly, but what the hell?

I have a cat head on my foot. Shadow is learning that I will not spend the day napping with him in bed, like his Daddy did. Also, he loves graham crackers.

Not so nice is that I'm about to ruin a Friday morning for a bunch of people because of a series of unfortunate events and an upset foreign government. - shrift
Everyone adapts. Lucky was Rob's cat, and now she's mine. It's different, but we all eventually managed.
I'm glad there is a little bit of grace in your day.

I am a woman of various inclinations and only some of the time are they to burn everything down in frustration
That's a good cat, Shadow.
I think I am letting Family Swim time at the gym defeat me. I am weak.
Eta: but I signed up for a "permanent" locker and towel service, which is like investing in future exercise.

I'm fully accepting of the TMJ, but today the pain resolved to a very very specific point this afternoon, and now I'm also thinking cracked tooth due to teeth grinding. Still waiting on a callback from the dentist, and chiro tomorrow.
ION, Campbell's now has a very delicious soup I just discovered. Some sort of kettle cooked portabello mushroom bisque that is chock full of chunky mushrooms with just the right give to the tooth and is divine.

Dear brain:
I am allowed to go cash in that free pizza coupon I have, then take it and some cold diet Coke to a shady nearby park and eat it. You're allowed to step out of the routines. In fact, this is the first of many. Get practicing.
Damn, change makes me nauseous.
