I am currently hating everyone who's on the semester schedule and getting out for summer. Here in Quarter Land, we still have four weeks to go. Yesterday and its lovely weather and laziness did not make this yearning to be done any easier.

Off-topic discussion. Wanna talk about corsets, duct tape, butt kicking, or physics? This is the place. Detailed discussion of any current-season TV must be whitefonted.

I am a woman of various inclinations and only some of the time are they to burn everything down in frustration
Glad for the lack of dread, Burrell!
One of my friends from UNO got flooded (in Houston) but they are all okay.
Someone brought in strawberry rhubarb pie this morning and it is SO GOOD

The status is NOT quo.
When I taught in CT we ended at the end of June. At my current school the students are done June 5 and I'm done June 10. Can't. Wait.

Why am I in such a bad mood?
I don't know, dude. I'm having a Demon Day.

Yipes!
I always think, from a Franny-centric perspective, school should last one more month. By the last month or so she's finally gotten everything down and has created a pace and schedule that works for herself. And one extra month of instruction, especially if it focused on projects that helped her to contextualize everything she's learned during the year, would be terrific. But alas, that's not how school works.

Every now and then, I think I might actually be a little odd.
It may just be my mood, but this SMBC comic made me LOL just now:
Ha! Yeah. sigh
I got some stuff done that needed doing this weekend, but even so... a three-day weekend, and I'm wondering where it went. I guess I should focus on the positive, that I made progress, but it just feels like I wasted most of the time, as it always does. Now I'm back at work, facing a full week, and feeling that same anxiety-making time-crunch. I've either got omg not enough time or plenty of time and I waste it.
Today is not the best day.

I remember the crazy days. 500 posts an hour. Nubmer! Natgbsb
Oh and now boss found something I had failed to do that is resulting in fees. Grr. Off to beg vendor for credit. Hate hate hate. It's gonna only be a few hundred in savings, but apparently they are riding everyone's ass about every penny because the rain has pushed our work off so much.

My sister and I had a long conversation Sunday in which she reassured me several times that there's nothing at all wrong with me. It's not all that reassuring when it's clearly not true. She's only reassuring herself.

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.
In our old office, there was another office on the same floor that had an asshole boss. I once heard asshole boss chewing out an employee for making a mistake that cost the company $10 or $20. Asshole boss told her he was going to take the money out of her paycheck.
I felt like asking him, "If she saves your company $1000, are you going to give her $1000?"
Is that even legal to deduct money from her paycheck for a mistake she made?

My goodness. Tim just texted me that he's coming home from work because he doesn't feel well. This man NEVER comes home from work because he's sick, and has taken maybe 3 sick days in the 10 years I've known him (not counting the time off for his hernia surgery).
Based on his general reticence to take a sick day, I'm assuming he's coming home because he has bubonic plague or something. I need to go find the plastic sheeting and duct tape.
