Remember that the frontier of the Rebellion is everywhere. And even the smallest act of insurrection pushes our lines forward.

I'm so sorry, erika.

The apartment people called my supervisor, he said they were impressed with how long I've worked here. I'm a stable person, rent to me!
I'm kind of impressed that they actually contacted references.

Fandom means never having to say "But where would I wear that?"
Timelies, all!
I'm sorry for your loss, erika.

All sorrows can be borne if you put them into a story. Tell me a story.
I'm sorry, Erika.

Have we elected Lupita Nyong'o empress yet?
Well! I haven't had the Kinsey needle twitch in ages. Though that's more "Let me stand here and gaze upon you in awe!" than anything else.

And the apartment complex just called to say I'm approved! I feel all validated as fuck! They like me! They like my finances! And I did it all on my fucking own. (cue the triumph, sense of accomplishment, and deep anger at the universe that I had to do it.)
Now to organize the actual shifting of shit from one place to another.

Okay, my all-day (8-5:30), giving an hour long lecture at 2pm, job interview is tomorrow. I have an about to erupt pimple on my chin, I got my period, I have a spot of poison ivy coming up on my wrist, and I have a large green buise on my right shin. On the other hand, my dress has pockets, I'll be wearing Clinique black honey lipstick, and my shoes are bitchin'. I have dark chocolate with sea salt squares and a protein bar and reading glasses in my purse.
I alternate between being mostly okay with my lecture and thinking it is absolute shit.
I do not have walking pneumonia, I will not be wearing a kevlar vest under a pantsuit, and I will not have to stand for an emotional memorial ceremony outdoors in the sun. I will have to deal with the fact that I was once a PhD student in the department, and my advisor is currently the chair, and last week he emailed me, "I still don't understand why you left."
Did I mention I've been up since 3am? And I'll be getting up at 5:30 tomorrow to get kids on schoolbuses before my interview.
Okay.
