Inara: So, explain to me again why Zoe wasn't in the dress? Mal: Tactics, woman. Needed her in the back. 'Sides, those soft cotton dresses feel kinda nice. It's the whole... air-flow.

Maria, that sucks. It's so frustrating to be given an impossible job and then penalized because it's impossible.

He is so excited to have a home and his own people that it is hard to get him to be still at all.

Over 12 years I never got a good picture of Gremlin. They were almost all pictures of her nose.

On my new work machine, I've added a tiny sticker of Black Widow and "Not Afraid to Say the F-Word" from the Ada Initiative: [link]

I feel like I need more stickers. I'm not a Loki fan, but this one made me laugh: [link]

Not so nice is that I'm about to ruin a Friday morning for a bunch of people because of a series of unfortunate events and an upset foreign government. - shrift

Feel free to come down here anytime and we can try to figure out what we want to be as grownups together, over grownup drinks!

I like that idea. And I can get in a little CB time too.

Zen, I'm glad that meds are helping.

Sorry this isn't working out as well as you had hoped when you started.

What kills me is that it's not my fault. I'm doing everything right. Boss even said so. I just need something to break my way to get my unit count up. Though long term I don't think I want to be doing this anymore.

Suzi, I hope Jack feels better soon.

It's so frustrating to be given an impossible job and then penalized because it's impossible.

Preach it, sister. Everyone really likes me, but I also have to provide value. I'm not at this point, and the owners are not keeping me around for my good looks and sparkling wit.

Thank you everyone. I'm really glad to have this place.

Hey, so, I just signed my offer letter. I guess this thing is really happening.

Congratulations! Good news for us.

Glad Tickybox is on the mend. Hoping to see her soon

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

Woo, shrift!

Argh. Every time I stand up today I get a splitting headache. If I sit still for a while it fades away, and then I either forget or optimistically think that this time it won't happen and stand up again and bam. Do not like.

"You should never say bad things about the dead, only good… Joan Crawford is dead. Good.” —Bette Davis

Yikes, was just scouting possible places to stay on vacation in the next month or so, and while a set of B&B options looked pretty nice at first glance, I ran into multiple reviews that mentioned an overly nosy owner who freaked out unexpectedly on people (and publicly replied to their reviews with insults and rationalizations rather than apologies). Bullet dodged.
