It's a nice feature when it works!
That's the thrill of living in the Hellmouth! There's a veritable cornucopia of fiends and devils and ghouls to engage ... Pardon me for finding the glass half-full.

Company or company ?
Potentially company though it fell through since. Ah well, at least my living room is now merely covered in cat hair rather than looking like a hoarder lives here. And I got my print of O'Keeffe's Radiator Building, Night hung on the wall in my bathroom.

Ooh, good one. I was just looking at that in the huge new comprehensive Art Deco book that came out this year.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
So now I have all of the budget information for my department, and my boss is such bullshit! She's acted all along like I somehow got an unreasonably high salary out of them when she hired me. But now I know that while I am slightly over the mid-point for my band, she is all they way over the top of hers! What the actual fuck. The bump I'm getting as "Acting" puts me in the middle of that band, which I would think is totally fine if I hadn't just seen her salary. Hmph.

This is why "they" don't like us discussing salaries.

Boo, Jesse. (though, yay bump for "acting"?). I gotta leave for the airport momentarily. I hate morning flights but didn't want to fly somewhere on my Labor Day weekend. Grump grump grump.

Are people in other countries as coy as we are about salaries?
It is possible that one of my thermometers is down for the count. It suddenly switched to Centigrade and told me my temperature was 33.3. This seemed unlikely and I found another thermometer that reassured me that my fever was normal. I miss mercury thermometers. They either worked or were a puddle of mercury on the floor to play with.

Good thing you have an extra thermometer!
I am at the airport. Was afraid I'd be late because I got in my car and suddenly remembered that I needed gas, but had thought I'd fill up yesterday only then I didn't drive anywhere yesterday. Oops. Thankfully, had just enough time to grab a water and get in line.
