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 looooove not dealing with a thing because I am anxious about it, so therefore I get to be anxious for a longer time. Awesome.

OHAI! Have we met?

Radio went wonky, hair didn't want to dry, badge broke off & I had to go back for it, first day of school clueless traffic patterns, forgot plant and fresh box of kleenex; today is going well.

Tuesday had better stop acting like a Monday.

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

I finally got the offer letter for my new job, so I was able to complete the application for the apartment. And I delayed the date the movers will pick up my stuff here until next week Thursday. So that's helped my anxiety a lot, but now I'm anxious about the apartment application. Looks like they're gong to also contact my old landlord for the place I lived at from 2001 - 2009. The place I had to move out of after the Great Bedbug Fiasco of Aught-Nine.

I've read that you shouldn't lie on rental applications, so on the application where it asked why I left that apartment, I put "Landlord did not renew lease." So I'm totally paranoid the place I applied at will reject me for this.

Me as well, although I've made a little improvement on this issue lately.

Eeeeeurgh, I agree. Developers and QA not answering questions, my content repository is throwing a hissy fit, and I have a horrible sinus headache because of the awful air quality due to all the fires.

Days shrink and grow cold, sunlight through leaves is my song. Winter is long.

Our air/sky is kind of orange-grey, Jilli, and the air has just a tiny taste of dirty ashtray. The addition of smoke to the forecast cloud overcast has dropped the high so far from the mid to the low 90s, though, so I suppose that's a silver lining.

I know Seattle and Portland have it much worse though. Y'all stay safe.

When I went out this morning, there were flakes of ash in the water dish I use for the crows.

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

Dang. That does kinda sound like a Goth Achievement Badge though.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

Oof.

The spiderwebs have ash in them and the sun was red this morning.

this mess was yours / now your mess is mine

That would be a great opening line for a story if it wasn't your real life.
