Kat, tomorrow. At lunch. Boss is driving from Richmond to PA. To have lunch. And give me my deadline. I can't even. I'm ready to give up.
I wear the cheese. It does not wear me.

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

It's no longer accidentally hitting First and seeing her words as I desperately click Recent because I can't even but I guess I didn't mind that prick so much as I thought. I'm stubborn and contrary in everything.

Yep, sara. You and me both. I did it all the time.

Oh, Maria, that sucks. I am so sorry.
Impossible = still impossible.
I am teetering on the verge of rage. Grace had an appointment, made 3 months ago, for a test tomorrow at Children's (BANE of my existence). It's the second in a series of endo tests to see if she should be getting growth hormone. There was no call from the nurse with instructions, but I figured she'd have to fast before. I just couldn't remember if it was also a water fast. So, I called endo at 3:30 to figure it out.
At 5:00 PM they call back to reschedule because their nurse has had an emergency and won't be in the next day. WHAT? You only have one nurse that can do this test? So pissed. This was after the endo himself called to reschedule an appointment because he was waiting for the results from this test.

Dana, I'm so sorry it took 3 damned hours to get home.
Kat, that's absolutely ridiculous.
I am grateful he's being up front with me about things, but it doesn't help with my tendency to freak out.

I am a woman of various inclinations and only some of the time are they to burn everything down in frustration
That seems weird, Kat, but I kinda believe there might just be the one nurse who can do the thing. I don't know, it just seems plausible at the moment. Shouldn't be, but is.
Every time I'd accidentally hit First it would hurt but I'd also think "I'll miss that" and now I do.
But. Glass of wine number two with sunset and mockingbird and I can already see Venus and Jupiter. Pretty okay to be me right now, all things considered.

A million things are expiring from Netflix Instant tomorrow. Earlier I watched Bowling For Columbine while crying, like you do. Now I'm watching The Manchurian Candidate.
Maybe not the best choices for a double feature.

I dunno, my 25th birthday triple feature was Three Kings, Welcome to Sarejevo and Year of Living Dangerously.
And goddamn, 15 years ago.

Surely there must be something cheerier.
