I'm sorry, Aimee and the Miracleborns.
It's just an object. It doesn't mean what you think.

I am a woman of various inclinations and only some of the time are they to burn everything down in frustration
The potato salad I was worried would be not enough was still more than we needed. I am no judge of potato salad requirements for groups.

Why did Darth Vader cross the road? To get to the Dark Side!
Oh ita, your doctors drive me up the wall. How have you not taken a weapon to any of them yet? I get the advantage of not driving, but does he see the gaping downside that comes with it?
I know I was a flake last time, but I can run errands tomorrow or Sunday if you need it.

A bigass storm rolled through the valley. It's reached the hospital where Hubby is. He says he's got a redtailed hawk perched on his windowsill waiting out the rain.

Lots of change coming. New boss, not an interim. Losing seasonal gardener. Losing intern, hopefully who will become new seasonal gardener and then hopefully a full time assistant. Volunteer to become new intern. I need to clean my office and get my house in order before new boss starts. Hah.
If all things work out, I'll still have a seasonal and an intern by mid-July. Meeting new boss on the 11th, but I don't know when he's starting. New boss is buddies with ED, so nervous but excited and relieved. Excited because this admin shit is killing me. It's nice to be in an air conditioned office, but I do so little paperwork that it takes longer than it really should. Because I'm always outside. Working. Nervous because buddies with ED could mean a dramatic shift in priorities (from the focus of a horticultural institute to hey! I'm just the gardening grunt maintaining the grounds around a bunch of sculpture! Because I believe that if grants weren't dependent upon a professional staff, he'd replace me with a contractor because he cares fuck all about the gardens --except that I'm positive that once he saw what a contractor did to the grounds, he'd flip his shit and go back to professional staff).

Flea, I'm there with you. I'm convinced this is genetic. I may push back and ask for a more detailed workup on my next blood test, because the regular test doesn't break out the different kinds of LDL.

Unusually and exceedingly peculiar and altogether quite impossible to describe
Shit, I still need to get my follow-up cholesterol test. It's been 6 months, so I should see if oatmeal, roasted veggies, green smoothies, and that goddamn elliptical machine have made any difference. (I seriously only need my total cholesterol to drop 9 points any my doctor will be happy. It's not like my cholesterol is 500 or anything. [True story: one of my aunts once had a triglyceride level into FOUR digits. For real. 1,000-something. Go Langs.])
