Now, I can hold a note for a long time...actually I can hold a note forever. But eventually that's just noise. It's the change we're listening for. The note coming after, and the one after that. That's what makes it music.

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

I'm gonna be a buzzkill. I should probably start looking for a new job. Boss just called and asked if we could do the mid-year review in person--he'll drive up from Richmond to PA. Company is not happy with the volume, and it needs to go up or else they're getting out of government.

Fuck. Me. Way to ruin my vacation. I have no idea what I want to be when I grow up.... still.

Wow, Maria. Good luck!

I am a woman of various inclinations and only some of the time are they to burn everything down in frustration

I hope the new vet works out, Burrell, and that the kitten is okay.

I'm sorry, Maria. That bites.

Hi new thread! Thanks for being so fast, DX! Good name.

My cube-neighbor who is always on the phone (for work stuff but her voice is piercing and loud) is writing an email outloud so she can consult with one of the salespeople while she does it and it is driving me up a wall. I need a cone of silence or something.

ETA wow, top ten? That hasn't happened in a while.

All I want to do right now is cry. I bust my ass, and this is where I get.

Love is stronger than death and harder than sorrow. Those who practice it are fierce like the light of stars traveling eons to pierce the night.

That just sucks, Maria. I'm sorry.

Ugh, I'm sorry this is ruining your vacation.

I'm not sure I know what I want to be when I grow up, either. I haven't enjoying sitting down and asking myself what I want from my life for the past 9 months because it's difficult, what with the anxiety and eating my feelings.

So, you know, fistbump of whyyyyy god damn it universe, can't I just be comfortable for, like, a year?

Thanks, everyone.

I'd really just like someone to fix it for me. I've been tested enough.

In other news, Christie announced he's running for President. Is everyone officially in the Republican clown car now?

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

Is everyone officially in the Republican clown car now?

Apparently!

Ugh, Maria. Good luck.

Back tattoos of the mother is that you are absolutely right - Ame

I tried to post in the old thead...ooops.

Maria - I'm sorry work isn't seeing how amazeballs you are.

Oh Burrell - I hope the new vet has good news for you.

Jack is at the vet right now to get chipped and to get a thing on his face looked at. He had been nipped (no broken skin) by one of the other rescue dogs before we adopted him and the site has slowly swollen over the last couple of days. The rescue is picking up the tab for this visit.
