Look, Angel, I know you've been out of the loop for a while, but I'm still evil. I don't do errands...unless they're evil errands.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

Ooh, good call. Thanks!

Love is stronger than death and harder than sorrow. Those who practice it are fierce like the light of stars traveling eons to pierce the night.

The "Special Dark" Hershey bar tastes more like semi-sweet to me. But I think the only place I ever see those is in the mixed bags of mini chocolate bars.

Every now and then, I think I might actually be a little odd.

Shonda Rhimes' writing team on Scandal just ... Oh, I love them.

I was actually thinking about that! Maybe I'll buy a bag and donate them to people who have candy bowls at work...

Meanwhile, while I'm in the weeds in missing a test deadline because ops won't stop blowing up (half my day was triage mtgs, other half was fixing) my boss is texting me at 10:30 at night discussing how we can entice better hires we've made offers to. This is a new world for me, y'all. And no small part of it is the retirement of my ex-CSRA sup next month. F, my branch boss, doesn't have anyone more generalized and senior than me after this. There are coworkers with longer service, but more focused knowledge. I'm REALLY general, fuck, at the info session today, only I could describe how the whole system of cogs worked. Even over dev. It's my JOB to know this. Imposter syndrome can eat this.

Sorry about all the stress, sarameg.

I like Hershey's Special Dark, but yeah, semi-sweet.

The Amazon listings for my book aren't quite right with the paperback and kindle versions not being linked. Bother. I sent off a request to get that fixed so hopefully it'll be all better before long. Also claiming my author identity at Goodreads which I probably should have done sooner.

It's kinda good stress, in that I'm valued. If test starts bitching, I can pretty much middle finger them with a Beyoncé gif and all is good, my boss high fives me..

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

That's pretty awesome, sarameg.

And a different kind of awesome, Gud. Yay Cog!

The feeling you get when your brain finally lets your heart get in its pants.

Is anyone else watching Lip Sync Battle?

I think Snoop Dogg's second performance is my new favorite thing.
