Popping in to say that Steph needs to remember this when she feels like she's a failure at her job. Why would they recommend that you mentor someone if they didn't think you were capable and doing a good job? We will be here to remind you the next time the demons rear their ugly heads.
Well, look who just popped open a fresh can of venom.

Not so nice is that I'm about to ruin a Friday morning for a bunch of people because of a series of unfortunate events and an upset foreign government. - shrift

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.
Who are all of you people that don't have to work today?
I am at work but currently have no work to do. Which is good, because I can't brain right now.

Sizzler does a mashed sweet potato that they serve with cinnamon honey butter. Oh. My. God. It's like eating dessert first.
And pumpkin chocolate chip cookies are worth knocking over little children for. (I am, unfortunately, nearly always in the mood to knock most little children over. Cookies just give me a reward.)

I took one of my "floating holidays" today. Such a good call.

Our wings are not tired.
Mmmmm, pumpkin. That's all. I have to work.

I am at work, but wondering why the hell I am here, besides my two meetings this AM. Also wondering how early I can sneak away.

Yes, Maria is right! Go Teppy, they like you!
I don't know why, but I have to emphasize that most stuff is pumpkin SPICE flavor, not pumpkin flavor.
True. And I was also there with the "omg PSL has no pumpkin!" Duh. It's spice. But I like both of those things (though I don't drink the pumpkin spice lattes, is rather have the Oprah Chai, which is delicious and cinnamon-y)
I just logged in to one of our (many) work databases and discovered I suddenly have access to a new project. Is someone getting ahead of themselves in giving me access before I'm told I have a new project? Or is this a glitch?? Could go either way. (It's apparently a psoriasis thing? Which I'd not be stoked to work on, but whatev)

Cats to become a rabbit should gather immediately now here
I am at work today, but I wish I weren't.
I had fittings at the theatre all weekend, and I also went on a wild goose chase out in the wilds of western NY looking for a package that was delivered to the secretary's house (she was not home). It was annoying, although I was amused by the hand made signs I saw saying "SLOW BABY DEER". I also saw the car dealership where I bough t my first car all boarded up and sad, and I got to see the little store that was started by my old friend's little sister (the little sister passed away a few months ago, which was very sad, since in my head she was still a little girl).

Every now and then, I think I might actually be a little odd.
I don't know why, but I have to emphasize that most stuff is pumpkin SPICE flavor, not pumpkin flavor.
Whyn't they just call it nutmeg flavor, then?

Yep.
Today I see the doctor to get the results of the first cholesterol test after I started taking the statin I didn't want to take. We'll see if the numbers are down. I suspect they are not, since I'm on a very low dose. I suspect he will increase the dose. But they took five or six vials of blood last week, so they must have been testing for more than cholesterol. We'll see how close I am to dead and what the doctor can scare me with this time.
