Keep telling your imposter syndrome to STFU, Connie.

I haven't slept well the last few nights, been waking up around 2 am for no apparent reason and not really getting back to sleep. I hadn't really felt tired until just about now, though. Staying awake is hard.

I like that, Gud.

Connie, no. Stop the bad brainweasels now, don't wait til they retire.

My car is in the shop for its annual maintenance and inspection. I stressed for hours about functioning in public with this bootcast on and it was no big deal. It sure is a conversation starter, though. Now I'm stressing about waiting for them to call and tell me I can pick it up. Wish I could relax; there's absolutely nothing wrong or even particularly difficult happening.

Are you telling the full truth, that Iceland's trolls tried to eat you? Or just going with "Oh, I fell down a volcano on vacation".

oy ... organizational changes. I have, for the many years I've worked for my current employer, managed the website. When I arrived it was four pages with no real information, no links ... just an animated GIF on each page. First thing I did was put up a calendar, which resulted in several people from a company in Mexico flying up to attend our conference.

I've kept it going and updated. Not always perfectly - I periodically miss things because we have stuff all over the place and I'm not the only one doing updates.

Well, they're hiring a new person to manage the website; my responsibilities will shift some, and I'm not heartbroken over it, although it would be nice to have received some recognition for just keeping the @#$#!!! thing going. The ad called for a "Webmaster/Digital Storyteller" (gag). He'll be starting in a couple of weeks.

They specifically went looking for someone who was up on the latest and greatest in software developments. I'm just waiting for him to get here and discover that the entire website is in an outdated version of Sharepoint.

Ah, good times.

I got an email about presale of Fun Home tickets, so I got some! Hooray.

I am still in Minneapolis. I would try to get a beer, but I think that would be a poor life choice given how tired I am right now.

Maybe they should define the level of surprise they're looking for, here.

We did something like that recently, and I struggled to come up with two interesting things that people didn't already know. Because the stuff they don't know is BY DESIGN, OKAY.

Yeah, that would be an unexpected revelation. I hope you enjoy your new responsibilities, Toddson.

Good luck with the flying, shrift.

Jesus, I'm at baggage claim and there's two breaking news stories about Trump.

It sure is a conversation starter, though.

And what a conversation! "Well, I was hiking this volcano..."

AHAHAHAHAHAHAHA.

We're switching to a new content authoring tool sometime ... this fall? At least upper management agreed with my suggestion that my side of the team won't switch to it until next year, after our January deadline?
