There's nothing quite like the feels engendered by turning on a computer and getting the boot screen.
Oh, like having that happen to a lighting console the day tech is supposed to start? I know today isn't Monday, but man has today been a Monday.

All sorrows can be borne if you put them into a story. Tell me a story.

Hey. New board.
Oh my god, it is 2.5 hours past my bedtime, and I JUST finished my grades and comments that are due in... oh, God, 8.5 hours.
I really should not have procrastinated this, but spring break was so PRETTY.
Okay. Sleep. Good night.

The status is NOT quo.
I really should not have procrastinated this, but spring break was so PRETTY.
HA! Oh Gris, I laugh because I AM THIS. Spring Break has just started for me, and Future Pix is already giving Present Pix the stinkeye.
Get some sleep!
Speaking of break, ND and I are headed to Arizona tomorrow to meet up with my mom and spend time with my aunt and uncle. I’m super excited to see them. We’re doing a belated 70/40 birthday celebration (Mom turned 70 in December; I turned 40 in February).

Head pats, teacher/grading folk. It sounds difficult and obnoxious.
I am flying back to Indiana tomorrow. But didn't get the things I needed to done today. Boo. So I'll be doing work thurs/fri when I should be on vacation. (I mean, I won't take the vacation days, but I'd rather).
I'm flabbergasted that someone would not know the Oxford comma. But not know it when you're applying for a tech writer position?? My GOD, if that's who they give an interview to, who applied that they DIDNT decide to interview????

I am a woman of various inclinations and only some of the time are they to burn everything down in frustration
Wow, lisah. Amazeballs.
Also sarameg although I guess I should not be surprised anymore that your days are like that.

You were a wrong baby who grew up wrong. The wrong kind of wrong. It's better you hear it from a friend.
HA! Oh Gris, I laugh because I AM THIS. Spring Break has just started for me, and Future Pix is already giving Present Pix the stinkeye.
Future Pix is quite the go-getter, never putting off until tomorrow the stinkeye she could give today.

Yesterday, I was able to make coffee without hardly thinking, no problems. Today, not so much.
But now I have coffee.

lisah, if knowing what the Oxford comma is would get me a job at your company, I would apply. I'd probably answer that question with, "It has its place."

Eeep! That one catches me up nearly every time; I really have to think about it. What can I say, I'm drinking oolong instead of black tea--less caffeine.
