I'm sorry. You were going to ask me to choose, right? Did you want to finish?

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.

Maybe it will never get done is my motto now.

Ugh. I had some friends over (one friend came at like 845am she also works from home, she invited another person who texted asking g if anyone was watching, anther friend came over after cutting out of work a little early) to watch the women's soccer game,. And then we LOST and it was sad. And then they left because they'd been here for like 8 hours. And yet, I'm still all "but don't you want to hang out? Do something? It's too hot to go dancing tonight! But I want friends! And realizing I have no plans for the weekend...

What is even happening?

ION, Cindy!!! It is so good to see you around.

Maria! I had a whole thing to say to you, but then I skimmed the rest of the board and my brain went numb. That said, I think you're right about nearly everything. Sorry you've been through what you have. Glad you are telling it to us straight.

Also, Teppy? You're dead right.

I look more rad than Lutheranism

Also, Teppy? You're dead right.

I like the sound of that! Which thing, though? Sometimes I am a crackpot.
