You're wrong about River. River's not on the ship. They didn't want her here, but she couldn't make herself leave. So she melted... Melted away. They didn't know she could do that, but she did.

Because books.

biometric time clock

Is that one of the fingerprint ones? We had one of those at H&M when I worked there, and half the time it wouldn't read my fingerprint.

Yep, fingerprint.

I get paid for my 10 minute breaks but not for lunch, Matt. I get clocked for all of them, though. It's supposedly to ensure that I am getting my legally mandated breaks, so, whatever. That starts Thursday. Sigh.

And this is because you're hourly now, instead of salaried, right? So dumb. I hope it turns out to be a reasonably pleasant place to work.

It's been over ten years since I had a job that recognized national holidays other than Christmas and New Years

Yup. So far so good, I guess.

No long weekend here. Next company holiday is Thanksgiving. Makes for a long stretch.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

Pretty sure it's Indigenous Peoples Day here, but the calendar still says Columbus.

I have gained a little weight and am trying to eat less candy, so every day I resolve "no candy" but then every day seems to boil down to "kill my husband, or eat candy?" and I eat candy. Sigh.

Home renovations, they're not for kids, folks, and my husband seems like he's actually a kid hiding in the body of a 6'6" 48 year old.
