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

That's a big additional chunk out of your day for less money. I sure hope you can at least get a more useful title out of it, -t.

I am spiraling around the edge of an anxiety attack today, holding it off, but can feel it riiiiiight there. I've been doing some exercises at my standing desk and doing breathing exercises too.

Work is pretty dead and I am afraid if I leave early I will go spend a bunch of money. So I am saying here, I will go pick up the foster dog and watch Netflix if I get out early.

Fandom means never having to say "But where would I wear that?"

Timelies all!

I'm sorry for your loss, Epic.

That does sound sucky, -t.

I haven't trusted science since I saw the film "Flubber."

McCain came out against the health care bill? Thank god.

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

msbelle, I hate when that happens. Either put me in a full-blown attack or leave me the hell alone. Can we do anything for you?

I am now looking at real estate while I wait for info from other people for work. I found a rowhouse in sarameg's neighborhood that two people could easily share. 3718 Rexmere for those so inclined to go looking.

Also there are 2 townhouses in this small development near me within walking distance to a bookstore, a fruit/veggie stand, a Mediterranean restaurant, and schoolyard/park. I think we could slowly but surely take over the whole place. 1 & 2 story 2 & 3 bedroom townhomes with private patios and a community pool. Less than $200k each. Just sayin.

this mess was yours / now your mess is mine

McCain came out against the health care bill? Thank god.

This probably means the bill is dead, but I won't breathe a sigh of relief until that shitbag McConnell announces there won't be a vote on it.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

OK, I have to share something ridiculous that just happened: I was in my office in a meeting, when Fancy Colleague called and left a voicemail and then called again. But, you know, none of our work is really urgent, so I figured I'd call back after my other meeting. In the meantime, his assistant has also emailed to follow up.

Turns out, what they needed was two tiny things added to a document I had sent them. And why didn't they do it themselves? It was "Read Only."

Haha. Ha. Ha.

I have to tell the assistant, right? She should know better.

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

-t, it's unfortunate you have to deal with this, but it sounds like there could be some positivity from the move. I hope so. And I'm sorry you have to leave your coworkers, where you've become somewhat comfortable.

Change is just hard.
