Oh, Lee, you know I feel you. I'm so glad you're there, though, much as it sucks, it's also good to be with fam. If I were nearer I'd offer you physical support, but I'm still in Indianapolis with my mother-in-law. She's doing pretty good, though the SO's siblings are struggling some. The SO will hit a few tour dates this weekend, the his aunt (who's been staying at the house) leaves Monday, so I think we're here for another week and a half or so. We still have a few more things to sort out but it's going pretty good.

Sending lots of peace~ma to all the buffistas who need it.
I had a fasting blood test this morning. Joy? And now I'm in the office. I've been in the SLC office more than at my actual desk. It has only been a couple of hours and I am fully reminded why I work from home. Too many people talking and being very distracting. I may leave after the lunch meeting which was my reason for coming in.
Sixteen days to the Silent Auction and our organizing team is falling apart. The gal who is in charge of the day of event stuff is DONE. All she has had to do so far is deal with the catering and room layout plans. We have had little to no additional parent support in getting this pulled together. We are low on donations and registrations (my responsility along with being the overall coordinator). I've been hustling for both for months. Breathe, Suz, breathe. Ok, back to work.

I don't know why this has just occurred to me, but I think I might sponsor a post on The Toast, but do it from the Good Stuff. Is that weird?
I think is sounds nice!

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
So I didn't get the UCLA position. Nice spiel about how I was next in line, but the person who got it had subject matter expertise that I lacked--well, what can I say.
I am mentally and financially at the breaking point, and will do anything that pays my rent and leaves me with sanity, It's like all my cope and "I have a good feeling about this" and "I've done everything I can" all exploded at the same time.
One of the recruiters says she has a nearby paper pushing gig that will barely pay the bills, but I refuse to get excited about that or anything for quite a while.

I am a woman of various inclinations and only some of the time are they to burn everything down in frustration
I'm sorry, ita. That sucks.

Oh, ita, I'm so sorry. That's horrid news.

Please look into your disability options. It can take a while to get that in place, but I think you've got a good case.

Aw, I'm sorry, ita. (I'm not so secretly wishing that choice one flames out quickly.)

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
Oh sorry, ita.
