Sorry, Captain. I'm real sorry. I shoulda kept better care of her. Usually she lets me know when something's wrong. Maybe she did, I just wasn't paying attention...

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

I think the second one? Although it kinda seems like you ought to be able to just say "I accept the position" and be done with it at this point.

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

I thought they were going to offically post the position in March. It didn't happen until last week. AND I didn't get Interim status or any additional compensation until I made a fuss at the beginning of June.

I think I actually do have my stuff together. Anyone willing to check for typos?

Every now and then, I think I might actually be a little odd.

I'll play CAH!

I look more rad than Lutheranism

Oooh! I can play! I have free time and I'm hopped up on migraine meds AND cold meds!

What do I need to do?

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

Nice, Anne.

I just printed out good feedback from my boss on an edited manuscript (just 1 page, where she wrote "NICE!" [the ASSCAPS and exclamation point are hers] next to a particularly tricky passage).

Make a kudos file and put it in it! Not that I wish a bad day on you, but sometimes they happen, and leafing through good feedback is good medicine indeed.

You know who else is good medicine? Stiles from Teen Wolf. I like him so much more than the show. The combination of Jeff Eastin (showrunner/creator) and Dylan O'Brien is magic.

SPEAKING OF MAGIC: I have an in-person interview request for the UCLA position. I am SO excite. (Thank dog browsers don't have green squigglies)
