Off-topic discussion. Wanna talk about corsets, duct tape, butt kicking, or physics? This is the place. Detailed discussion of any current-season TV must be whitefonted.

I remember the crazy days. 500 posts an hour. Nubmer! Natgbsb

I dare not say anything at work about anything currently in the news cycle. I suspect one or more co-workers would take the position that Drumpfs tape was no big deal and then I would have to throw things and never ever speak to those people again.

I just realized that I forgot my meds yesterday and this morning, that may account for my deep desire to crawl under my desk and cry. I think I should run home and take those.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

Theodosia and I almost got into a fight with a drunk guy yesterday in a pizza place, but a strategic changing of the subject averted disaster.

If you're going through hell/keep on going/don't slow down/keep your fear from showing/you might be gone/'fore the devil even knows you're there

but at least he gave a real and appropriate apology.

Didn't he use the same "I was just a kid [in my mid-thirties] at the time" line that he used to excuse Ryan Lochte?

Well, he does approach issues with all the nuance of a ten-year old.

Don't do it! Not worth it! Just stuff your face with more pizza--that's what I did last night.

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

I think I forgot my meds this morning, too, but I've had a cupcake and a chocolate chip cookie already, surely that will see me through.

Our wings are not tired.

My son suggested I take a sip of wine every time Donald sniffed, but I can't drink that much.

Did I mention the staunch Republican seated next to me on the plane coming home? She said she didn't know how any woman could vote for him and was sad for her party. She was also appalled at his McCain and Khan family crap. I'd say she was in the upper percentile since she mentioned her 3 homes when we were discussing where we were from. Main home, NY vaca home and FL vaca home. So at least one wealthy older white conservative woman has no use for him. Kasich was her first choice.

I'm terrifically busy with my ennui.

Current mood: Making myself cry over my lunch break by watching Scrubs clips.

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

I can't get my head into work today. How do I make myself focus?

More and more it just seems pointless. It's peer reviewed, just slap our name on it and put it on the website. Who cares where the commas and hyphens are? Who cares if the biography starts with their education background? Who cares? I am so burned out. I need like a month vacation.

Current mood: I hate everyone and want to go back to sleep.
