Uhg, neighbor confirmed Jeep keened all night long last night. And when I go outside, I can hear him. But my cats would freak out if I brought him over, even in carrier. And he'd probably keep us up all night. He wants his human. He's started cuddling with me when I hang over there, but he'd probably freak out over here too. Poor pup.

Off-topic discussion. Wanna talk about corsets, duct tape, butt kicking, or physics? This is the place. Detailed discussion of any current-season TV must be whitefonted.
People getting a ride in a Tesla in insane mode.
JZ's dad got a Tesla and he did this to us twice last weekend. It's...insane. Unbelievable G-force.
In other news, my ears are literally bright red and burning because I am LIVID about work bullshit.
I made Matilda touch them and she was impressed with how hot they are.
I'm trying to come down off the adrenaline and NOT email my actual thoughts about the FUCKING ASSHOLE who blew his deadlines and tried to throw me under the bus.
Guess what, weasel fucker? There's this little thing called email where all of our interactions are completely documented showing that I gave you tons of reference images, made myself available, followed up, initiated phone calls and was genial and professional.
Gott dam.
Grr argh, Hec
Anyway, the asshole is off the project because...I had all the emails.
Unfortunately, that really fucks our presentation because we're pitching to CEO of Marvel in a couple of weeks and we need to finish the art. Gah. Agita.
Sounds trying, Hec.
I am so tired I am too tired to get ready for bed. YAWN. I should fix that.
Or maybe it's Single Whip to Fist Under Elbow I've got wrong
Oh oh! I think I know where you are now. I know that move, only my teacher calls it Presenting Pea Pod (so Single Whip to Presenting Pea Pod). I have a hard time with that one too, and then I don't really understand yet how to get into the Monkey one, or how to do it at all. I do this thing that seems vaguely kinda like it, but my teacher looks at me and smiles and says, "what were you doing? It is very pretty but..."

What kind of art and how much of it, Hec? (Asking to see if it's something I could offer to help with.)
Hey. I'm on a Marvel project that also has a weasel fucker who blows deadlines and never takes responsibility. Maybe it's a thing with them.
Timelies all!
Will shower and dress shortly, then head out to Malice Domestic. Didn't get to finish the Agatha nominees before the con started(I'm reading the last of them right now). Oh, well.
Exit interviewed for CSRA! My "last" day is tomorrow! Last time putting my time in! Last paycheck (other than the leave payout.)
....and I still have too much work to do.
Woo, Sheryl! I have never been to Malice Domestic but I like the cut of its jib.
That makes me feel better, Burrell. I have not had that moment with this movement when what my teacher says and what my body is doing click and I at least feel like I have a "right" memory to try to recapture when I practice. Presenting Pea Pod sounds like what we are calling Giving the Gift, which comes immediately after Fist Under Elbow (which comes right after a transitional bit that my teacher said "it doesn't have a name, let's call it 'The Duck' and someone else says 'Scarecrow' and someone else says 'Double Whip' but whatever you call it I know how to do that bit) and is also in the Monkey Qi Gong we do although it appears in two directions and with another variation so that doesn't help me know where my weight is supposed to be in this point of the Form. Maybe practicing straight up walking meditation going backwards more would help.
