I look more rad than Lutheranism

Ugh, I'm tired and just being hammered by allergies (and trying to not take more allergy meds BECAUSE I'm already so tired and I need my whole brain for work) and I'm editing a complicated article, and so I'm sitting here thinking "God, I am HUNGRY. I am SO HUNGRY. It's annoying how hungry I am!"

Hey, Steph, the answer to your problem is a mere 2 rooms away, in that place where the food lives. Duh. I cannot brane.

Sounds like a good Friday, Jesse!

I have a couple of teleconferences to join, shortly. And then have some work to do. ...mostly what I actually want to do is catch up on the shows on my TiVo. Or take a nice long walk somewhere.

Yeah, I am at the point where I am grateful that I remembered to wear pants today. Go me! Gold Star!

That local honey trick seems to be working for me. Mind you, still having the occasional sneezing fit, but feeling like someone's trying to inflate a rubber life raft inside my sinus cavity is no longer the default state.

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

I remembered to wear pants today.

Yeah, that's about all I've got.

Cats to become a rabbit should gather immediately now here

I once actually did forget to wear pants (or actually a skirt. I was wearing a long coat, and when I arrived at work, I realized I was only wearing tights and a sweater under my coat!

Luckily, I was working in a costume shop!

I'm terrifically busy with my ennui.

I have been increasing my amount of caffeine this week, in an effort to stay upright, and so far so good. It helps that my boss is out of the office today, so no meetings.

I had a chat about open roles with someone this morning who has been in a similar situation to the one I'm in. He gave me some advice and wants me to be careful to know what I'm getting into and not just running away from a bad situation, which is fair. I think we're going to invent a reason to get me out to the west coast for a visit.

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

Not wearing pants (US version) today. Maxi dress. I actually decided what to wear today based on the premise that pants AND a top made for way too many decisions.

That sounds like a good plan, shrift.

That sounds like a good plan, shrift.

I've been thinking about this long enough that I am pretty sure I'm not jumping in blind and that relocation wouldn't be too traumatic, but it really would be good to spend some time with both teams in person.
