Bob's learned to live with tragedy, but he knows that this tragedy is one that won't ever leave him or get better.

-t, can you pick up the Box o Meat anyway just because it's a nice thing to do and see your parents and have a drink?

A dress should be tight enough to show you're a woman but loose enough to flee from zombies. — Ginger

Yeah, friend screwed up. You give the mL's, NOT units.

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

No, at some point they won't be delivering to the drop point any more, there won't be meat there to pick up. I could just go and have a beer, of course, but it was nice to have that scheduled for me as a regular thing.

Bacon appearing on my porch as if by magic is a pretty good trade off, though.

Kinda hard to spin this as a hardship, admittedly. It's bacon. At your door.

For the longest time once I started relying on friends and pet sitters rather than boarding,I kept a syringe taped to the fridge with the dose taped off, in case I couldn't convey for whatever reason. But I have/had a weird anxiety/PTSD thing going on (just ask anyone who got The Book on cat care. )I can see how if the friend is suddenly hospitalized, that she might not have that sort of instructions set up beyond x-units, because that seems like enough info when you're already deep in.

Theo, from my perspective, you're doing the best you can with what you have. Hopefully, tonight ends the drama with you and the feline patient home & fine.

I'm going to back up and fully support, sarameg. I don't know how you ended up tending a diabetic cat and it's scary even with full instructions for me. I hope tonight ends well for everyone.

Someone just warned me someone rescheduled a meeting at 4:30 the Monday I come back.

"I keep to a strict diet of ill-advised enthusiasm and heartfelt regret." Leigh Bardugo

Well shit. So my current principal will release me (is education the only gig in the world where you need your boss's permission to take a new job? Cause I can't transfer schools without her signing off on it) but won't sign the paperwork until she has a new person in my job. So, I am letting my new principal deal with her. I think it's best for me not to push.

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

Fingers crossed for you, Calli, and congrats, Kat. Also, crossed for the weirdness of needing "release".

I had an interview today, but I think, as usual, I will lose to someone with more business subject matter expertise. I analyse all sorts of business, folks! And I'm really quick even when starting from scratch.

My mother has officially asked me to move home for the first time. But that doesn't help me find jobs in my field.

Or, let's be honest, jobs that pay like I've been doing this for 20 years. Because that's what's important. There are a million things I would switch to, but DUES PAID and I want continuity of cheque....:P

Why did Darth Vader cross the road? To get to the Dark Side!

Ugh Kat, hope it all goes smoothly.

Fingers crossed for you as well, ita. On both work and mom fronts.
