Meeting #1 did not need to last an hour. But it did. Meeting #2 I can at least try to do something else while I listen in...
Whoa. Good myth.

Thank god for the SCOTUS ruling. I've been pretty depressed about the state of things, but this is good news.

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.

Me too. I was cautiously optimistic, but I was thinking it'd be a 5-4 ruling.
I'm more optimistic about the upcoming same-sex marriage ruling.

Had a meeting today that I thought was going to be part of another round of general training, but it was actually a pre-training run through to find holes and unaddressed sections. They actually tracked me down when I didn't show up on time. Apparently when they said they wanted my input on this stage of the process, it wasn't just general management speak, they actually wanted my specific input as someone who has done this job for a long time. How wonderfully validating (especially since a few years ago, my supervisor's preferred management technique was to threaten my job and point out how easily I could be replaced. Fortunately he went to another division)

Every now and then, I think I might actually be a little odd.
YAY SCOTUS! I was cautiously optimistic, but I didn't expect 6-3. Still concerned about the SSM ruling, but not too worried.
They're sending the gays to take our Confederate flags and our guns and make us get healthcare!! Maw, bring me my shotgun.

I have discovered a hole in the underarm seam of the shirt I put on this morning. I pray that I do not discover more holes as the day continues.

Oh, hey, another project with a short deadline. I'm sure that won't be any problem to wedge into my schedule. Sigh.
You know what's good? Chocolate tea with a little cream. Kinda wish I had little sandwiches to go with it. Just bread and butter would be perfect.
