Damn it! You know what? I'm sick of this crap. I'm sick of being the guy who eats insects and gets the funny syphilis. As of this moment, it's over. I'm finished being everybody's butt monkey!

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

I am choosing to think of it as very late Sunday until I get to work, for I feel the impending Mondayness looming above me and wish to delay it as long as possible.

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.

I stayed up late last night watching Westworld. Then I watched the episode again.

My ability to brain has been compromised. Still, my brain is braining enough that I'm getting work done, if a little slowly.

I haven't trusted science since I saw the film "Flubber."

I'm doing a lot of confused staring at the monitor.

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

I stayed up late watching all the episodes of Pitch. Good show, bad decision. Thus far all mistakes have been others' that I have just discovered and that impact my work. I have had to make the mistakes known. Some mistakes are being remedied by others and I just have to wait, others were just communication mistakes and created work for me.

Me too!

But at least one thing I was confused about turned out to be a mistake by a client.

I'm booking travel for people, so it's about the level I can handle at the moment. I don't have to build or fly the palne, just reseve a seat on it and make sure it goes to and from the right place on the right dates. Wait, it's getting complicated now.

Our wings are not tired.

This whole combination of Monday and having to work for a living thing ain't right.

Laura speaks the truth.

"I remember when they eventually introduced that drug kingpin who murdered people and smuggled drugs inside snakes and I was like 'Finally. A normal person.'” —RahvinDragand

I must have pleased the demon gods of Mondays over the weekend, I came in to a rare Monday morning where tons of work or unexpected brushfires weren't waiting for me as soon as I turned my email on. Maybe napping the whole weekend away so I'm well rested on Monday mornings works the same way as carrying an umbrella to ward off rain?

I'm glad it's not me, having the Mondays. I stayed up too late too, reading a biography of Charlotte Bronte. I blame the Supermoon.

This whole combination of Monday and having to work for a living thing ain't right.

Oh yes.
