Ugh. Just sent a pretty bitchy email to my manager but honestly it is not my problem that they didn't give me guidance two weeks ago, and then didn't actually DO anything about the issue until today. And all of the documents are on our shared drive, she just wanted me to move them to a different folder? Seriously? Do it yourself lady, it'll take you less time, and I have other parts of this "emergency" to deal with.
I get confused. I remember everything. I remember too much, and... some of it's made up, and... some of it can't be quantified, and... there's secrets.

Days shrink and grow cold, sunlight through leaves is my song. Winter is long.
I love you, Scola.

I wanted to go on Deal or No Deal just so I could ask Howie WTF was with the ending of St. Elsewhere.

What kind of paperwork do I actually need to produce in order to rent in San Francisco?

I was watching the Gary storyline in repeats the summer I nannied and was around a million kids and hormonal women. Lots of crying.

My boss sent me an email...telling me to email an author to let the author know he will be receiving a galley. Wouldn't it have taken the EXACT SAME amount of time for her to just email the author herself? And then save me -- and by extension, the AMA -- the time it takes to send that email? (Which is a small amount of time, but still billable and ridiculous.)

I never watched thirtysomething. I have no idea what you all are talking about.
I miss watching tennis but I just cannot get into the right headspace for it.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

My boss loves to do that shit -- I can hear her from my office, asking someone else to ask/tell me something. Why???

I dunno, but I think in Boston I only needed paystubs. In New York, I'm pretty sure I needed tax returns. So somewhere between those, I bet?

Gah, meara, that is frustrating as hell. (Also, per our conversation at dinner I checked my fridge and I do NOT have a can holder in my fridge. I do, however, have a drawer in my dishwasher I had no idea was in there.)

A drawer you did not know was there?? How does that work?
I am currently ensconced with margarita. I have a conference call in an hour and several more hours of work to do but damn do I need this drink. (Told boss that I was over allocated and would not be able to do the trip to Boston she wanted me to do, and she was all "yeah, sorry, but we are getting a lot of pressure to get it done" and I managed to NOT respond "IDGAF about the pressure because I'm not doing it. Fire me if you want"
