Pocahontas?

Cinderella, Sleeping Beauty, Ariel (without googling)

Sorry, drop Ariel.

If 30 years is the requirement, that only gives you Snow, Cindy, and Aurora.

Not 30 years. (ETA: Pocahontas, that is. Really only 3? Huh)

This stupid day will never end. The two things I came in wanting to get done I have not gotten a chance to work on at all and one thing that came up after I got here that I have been trying to get done since 8:45 has also gotten pushed aside for various and sundry emergent tasks. I'm having a goddamn brownie.

Apparently the Pocahontas I was thinking of was 1995. Seems a lot longer ago than that to me.

I was surprised too. I feel like my childhood was filled with Disney, but all the others came after I was an adult (well, depending on what part of 1989 The Little Mermaid came out in, I might have only been 17, but still).

Guess the re-releases of those three, plus Bambi, Pinocchio, The Fox and the Hound (was that Disney? Not sure...), etc., made it Disney-full, even if it wasn't that Princess-full.

Stretch the definition of "princess", and you can add Tinkerbell, even Wendy if you want.

Hm. I do have some fairy wings from the dollar store, but they are purple. Can Tinkerbell be purple?

I am also having a cookie.

ETA it was only half a brownie.

I might be the last person left in the building. It's really quiet.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

The Disney Princess Industrial Complex is definitely a recent innovation.

When I went to leave early, my team member who usually works an early schedule was still there. I was like, "Are you working on a deadline I forgot about or ????" She had plans after work, but later. Phew!

Am massaged.

Remember Leia is a Disney Princess now.

Ooh, good one, Matt. I don't know if I can pull that together but it's a good idea.

Hooray massage!

I am going home. The stuff I wanted to do will just not get done. Maybe I will come in early on Monday. I suppose it is possible I will work on it over the weekend but I really don't want to. MAYBE IT WILL NEVER GET DONE. I am at the fuck-this-noise stage of trying. Thank dog my manager approved using empty offices for meditation, I don't know if I would have gotten this far today without that.
