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

Sounds clear to me, Sophia.

Ah, sweet sweet caffeine. Confidence level in my own reality, rising.

My main takeaway from that article, btw, is that some people are jerks. Which I guess I knew, but still.

Unrelatedly: dear other department, you do not get to ignore my request for over a week and then cite "short lead time" as a reason why you can't do what I asked. Well, you can go ahead and do that, obviously, but it will piss me off. Grr.

I have finished all my main work. I am now dealing with papers that get left on my desk because they are not easily dealt with.

Cats to become a rabbit should gather immediately now here

Thanks -t! I hate not having anyone to check my work before it is posted.

You want to know what is a doorway to hell? Not being able to blow your nose. And knowing that if you don't clear the airways things are only going to get irritated. So lots of saline spray and sniffing and very careful breathing-out and encouraging thoughts of "let it go, better out than in, gravity is your friend."

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

Y'all are real people, right?

Define real.

Define people.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

Yeah, that seems clear to me, Sophia.

You know, I'm not sure I was a fan of this week.

SAME. And I only worked less than four days! (When I leave at 2:30 to go to the dentist...)

I work with those people, too, and they can fuck right off.

Not a fan of this week either although there have been no big problems.

If low level depression is how my body is gonna deal with menapause it can fuck right off. I hate this heavy blah feeling and not enjoying anything.

I'm terrifically busy with my ennui.

Why is it that no matter how much you plan, there are never enough toppings for the whole baked potato?

Yeah, that's the thing. It's not like anything went wrong for me. I'm just vaguely irritable about nothing at all.

Everything has gone to complete shit at work. And there's nothing I can do to fix it.

Ah crap. Sorry to hear that sarameg. Hope things get better quick.
