I must obey the inscrutable exhortations of my soul—Calvin and Hobbs

Heart~ma for your step-dad, Laura.

Cool sword, -t!

It's nice to know you've helped a restaurant get off the ground, sarameg.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

Oooh!

That actually goes for both -t and sarameg.

Apparently, work had a meltdown today.

I'm really glad I mostly enforce a work blackout on weekends.

Every now and then, I think I might actually be a little odd.

Heart~ma for your stepdad, Laura.

Condolences, Steph. It's such a hard thing to have to do. You and Tim have had too many losses the last year.

Our wings are not tired.

Yawn. 5 AM was early. Hanging n the waiting room. Looks like plenty of room to set up my laptop and settle in once they take him. This is the hospital where I was born.

Best thoughts, Laura!

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

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.

Heart~ma, Laura.

this mess was yours / now your mess is mine

You know, there is NOTHING I can do when the higher-ups in the Editorial Office say "Stephanie did not sent the article to the author, because I checked our database and there is no record that she did so," even though the fucking database shows that I sent the article on 3 separate dates because the author refuses to respond to us. Like, I would need to go to Chicago and press the EIC's face against the monitor and point to the goddamn emails and say "WHAT ARE THOSE, RONNIE? THOSE LOOK LIKE EMAILS WITH MY NAME ON THEM. WHAT IS YOUR GODDAMN SHIT TODAY?"

(I woke up an hour early this morning with a full-blown panic attack, and while Ativan got the panic under control, I cannot shake the overwhelming agitation, and this bullshit is bullshit I do not need today, ESPECIALLY because it's fucking incorrect, and provably so. I am about to take screenshots of all the emails and send them to Ronnie, along with a suggestion to visit a fucking eye doctor. But I shouldn't have to take screenshots, because the emails are in the database that we ALL have access to. They are RIGHT FUCKING THERE.)

Don't come at me, Ronnie. DON'T DO IT.
