Hey, I've been in a firefight before! Well, I was in a fire. Actually, I was fired from a fry-cook opportunity. I can handle myself.

Today can suck it. I woke up fine and started work fine, but then I was exhausted. Work was slow enough so I allowed myself a nap. Then I dreamed that I was having an asthma attack but couldn't find my nebulizer. It took a while for me to wake up out of that and a while longer to realize I was able to breathe fine. And then I realized I don't know where my nebulizer is and my anxiety went up to 11.

I get it, an anxiety dream regarding unpacking. Shut up brain, I'm well aware that I'm getting overwhelmed. I still have work to do, I still have unpacking to do...and now I'm a shaking mess.

Days shrink and grow cold, sunlight through leaves is my song. Winter is long.

Ease, Suzi. Betterment to you.

And you too, Theo.

Yay, hooky, Tom. I hope it's restorative.

Oh, that dinner plate needs to be killed with fire.

Best of luck, shrift.

And yay baby, Juliana and M! I can now burble at will! I'm really glad you're feeling better.

A bit of trivia I just found out from reading Caroll Spinney's AMA: he was invited to go on the 10th Space Shuttle Challenger mission and had accepted, but the Big Bird puppet was too large to take on the shuttle.

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

Oh wow. That is a lot to think about.

The feeling you get when your brain finally lets your heart get in its pants.

interview guy wants me to make a decision about location (Mountain View vs. Dublin) before I follow up with him again.

I think that is encouraging. YAY

Am I allowed to vote for MV?

Am I allowed to vote for MV?

Sure!

Pros: I have people in the Bay Area, I wouldn't have to move out of the country and deal with visas/banking/taxes/retirement, shorter & less expensive flights to visit family, sushi.

Cons: COST OF LIVING JESUS CHRIST, terrible traffic.

Of course, I also still need someone to offer me a job.

And I thought, "Why does she need a flight to visit sushi--oh, wait."

Is there not sushi in Dublin? Would it be a many-year move, or something for just a few years? Don't forgrt, everyone there will get additional attractiveness points for accents...
