I don't mean to laugh, but as soon as you mentioned deflating the air bed before the movers arrived I went "ooh, that's bold".
Wishing you the comfiest of blanket forts, and no further hiccups.
And don't you ever stand for that sort of thing. Someone ever tries to kill you, you try to kill 'em right back! ... You got the right same as anyone to live and try to kill people.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
Aaaaallll these aggravations will pass. They will pass and be replaced by exciting new aggravations!
It's infuriating because it's true!

I very much doubt that I have enough room to keep the air bed inflated AND get all the boxes/furniture in the apartment. Lesson learned, I guess.

Today is our first day of orientation.
Tomorrow, first thing, I have a root canal.

I'm terrifically busy with my ennui.
You can glare at the movers balefully tomorrow while you fold your blanket fort.

I'm going to find some comfort food to shove in my face for lunch, I tell you what.

Every now and then, I think I might actually be a little odd.
Oh, I had pizza for lunch and breakfast.
Breakfast happened at the same time as lunch because I didn't get actual breakfast.
So, my co-worker who's always taking vacations asked me again to back her up, and this time I said no, I can't, I'm swamped, I'm losing my mind. So she got someone Else. This morning Else messaged me and said our boss doesn't want Else to do ALL THAT WORK by herself, and told her - of course - to give me the portion I'd already said no to. HIGH-larious.

this mess was yours / now your mess is mine
My boss sent me less crazy feedback today, although she AGAIN said she did ABC despite her email saying when XYZ happens we *never* need to do ABC. So I replied asking very explicitly, hey, this is what YOUR email from May 4 says [insert direct quote about *never* needing to to ABC]; since you have been doing ABC when reviewing my work, I need concrete guidelines on when I should disregard your previous instruction on the matter.
We'll see what happens.
I should look for a new job, but I sure don't know what I want to do. So instead I'm going to watch 90210 on Hulu while I eat lunch.

We won’t stop until everyone is gay.
Jeez, Zenkitty. Said boss knows damn well that you are overwhelmed, IIRC.
shrift, I wish you timely, efficient, and careful movers.
