I'm glad you're having a good experience, Theodosia.
Well some friends of Buffy played a funny joke and they took her stuff and now she wants us to help get it back from her friends who sleep all day and have no tans.

I'm trying really hard to be productive because I have so many deadlines, but it's really hard to find motivation when you're in the middle of a reorg.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
Many of the key people I need to do my work are only focused on Ebola right now, and the country where most of my work relates to is going through a political/military crisis (don't call it a coup). It's a little tricky to get stuff done! Luckily (?) I have plenty of admin work to do....

Not to be a one-upper!
One thing I will say, people actually wash their hands in the bathroom here. Unlike my last job.

I was gonna say that my reorg anxiety doesn't really compete with Ebola. THANKS, JESSE.
Neither does the fact that I tried to grab a meat & cheese calzone at lunch so I could eat my feelings and discovered that it was a whole-wheat kale calzone upon cutting into it. I voluntarily eat kale all the time, but the lack of sausage and pepperoni was very disappointing to me today.

I am a woman of various inclinations and only some of the time are they to burn everything down in frustration
MY cube-neighbor keeps using success as a verb and it is driving me nuts. Is that a common usage now?

Life moves pretty fast. You don't stop and look around once in a while, you could miss it.
Jeez, I hope not.

I will try to success a meeting tomorrow with someone who isn't paying attention to meeeeee due to the Ebola.
Is that right?

Fear me, I am attempting spray painting furniture. This is what happens when I find a cute-but-slightly-battered jewelry armoire for $13, and have binge-read a bunch of home decor blogs.
But for practice, I just spray painted a little jewelry box. If it works, I will have a b&w striped thing! If it doesn't, I've learned something. Right?
