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.
Or maybe you could just be Buffy, he'll see your amazing heart, and he'll fall in love with you.

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

Our wings are not tired
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.

Fandom means never having to say "But where would I wear that?"
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.

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

Woohoo, sarameg! I hope you get help with the workload somehow.

Awww! Buffistas always got your back. I think we'll sort it out. The Weasel seems to be volunteering to finish his work before he leaves.

Heh. Not an actual Marvel person.

(We're not pitching a comic - as fun as that would be. We're pitching our patent-pending technology for them to license. But our licensing guy has done a lot of work with them and has frat brother connections with the higher ups.)
