I'm sorry. You were going to ask me to choose, right? Did you want to finish?

See? I gave everybody here an opportunity to tell me what a bad person I am and nobody did, because I fuckin' rule.

Braceless sumi is excellent news! Many congrats!

Management-by-sabotage, and its subset New-management-establishing-itself-by-shitting-all-over-everyone-who's-already-there, is grimly familiar to way too many of us. Enough so that I personally can't even construct a response, just nod and shudder and rock back and forth. But, holy crap, am I delighted that Jilli is loved and appreciated now! So long overdue, so incredibly well deserved!

Love is stronger than death and harder than sorrow. Those who practice it are fierce like the light of stars traveling eons to pierce the night.

Lovely house, flea! May you have many happy years living five minutes from Teppy.

I am always boggled by people who get their jollies from having endeavors they're involved with struggle and fail.

I wasn't sure if you meant cruddy work managers who set people up to fail or the ghost/sasquatch hunters...

sumi, I'm glad for your feet and legs.

Jilli, the people at the Copenhagen office clearly are smart.

So come, my friends, be not afraid/We are so lightly here/It is in love that we are made; In love we disappear

Yay, Sumi!

In other news, wow, my brother is an asshole, and I have therefore now made a custom setting on Facebook so he cannot see my posts when he's being a drunken jerkwad who needs to fall in a manhole and drown.

YAY flea. I love the porch. And as someone who is histantly house hunting, I like that web page, showing room measurements. So nice.

That's awesome, sumi! I'd much rather have to where more supportive footwear in the house than a brace. (In fact, I do. Never had to wear a brace, but I have a foot problem that my podiatrist recommended the same thing for.)

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

That's great, sumi!
