There's a French Republic calendar Twitter account. Every day they'll tell you what day it is by their reckoning. And they just kickstarted a print run of the calendar. [link]
Um, well, we listened to aggressively cheerful music sung by people chosen for their ability to dance. Then we ate cookie dough, and talked about boys.

Do you want ants? Because that's how you get ants.

All right, most of my moving boxes have found a new home and I have recycled the rest. I only have to get through a very epic day of work tomorrow and then I'm on vacation.
I need to remind myself that sleep deprivation makes everything more awful and that's why going to bed earlier is a great idea.

I am a woman of various inclinations and only some of the time are they to burn everything down in frustration
Sleep is good. Vacation is excellent.
I don't have vacation on the horizon like that, but I have been told there will be cupcakes tomorrow, so that's something. And, of course, more books than I can keep up with coming my way, so I'd better go do what I can to finish up the one I'm in the middle of right now...

This is a short vacation to DragonCon, so it won't be restful, exactly. But I won't be checking my work email!
Books and cupcakes are good.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

Yeah, I was doing pretty well on that front yesterday, until my fan fell out of the window and I was up for an hour in the night. Boo!

Was getting increasingly incensed about a coworker's phone beeping somewhere in my hall...until I realized it was a damned bird outside.
