I am insulted!
I am insulted on your behalf!
That's beautiful. Or taken literally, incredibly gross.

And then Ortus came and said "It's Ortin' time" and they all Orted off into the sunset

I'm terrifically busy with my ennui.
Y'all, I have really come to hate the sound of my boss' voice. It's not really fair, and yet. It makes me want to stick my tongue out at my laptop (fortunately she can't see me).

This meeting is on the calendar for 15 minutes every Friday. It's never been 15 minutes. We've already been at it for 30 minutes, 95% of which has been my coworker and manager hemming and hawing over things.

I'm terrifically busy with my ennui.
And now my coworker is agreeing that she will definitely not rewrite the release notes provided by the managers, and only edit them for style and grammar. We all know this is a bald-faced lie, coworker.

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

Librarian Warlord
A rant: When we travel, we sometimes book transfers or tours. Every time, I ask whether or not they can accommodate my daughter's booster seat (having the right kind of seatbelt). Sometimes they say they can, and then show up with a car/van that can't. I refuse to let her ride, and my husband gives me the stink-eye. We are booking transfers and tours now in Chile, I looked up the laws, and the agent is telling me that she doesn't need a car seat (wrong), and that anyway she's sure it will be fine. Nope. I'm a law librarian; I can look up the laws and I'm sure I'm correct. Also, confirm the seat belts, because I will consider it a breach of contract if they show up with something in which she can't legally ride.
I don't think following the law on this issue is being unreasonable, but everyone looks at me like I'm making trouble.

I feel like I'm coming unhinged. I am just seething with rage.

Sold the last of Hubby's guns, glad to not have the responsibility for those any more. The gun store was busy--apparently going to the range is a popular Veterans Day activity--but no one was spouting off politically. Limbaugh was on the shop radio, but it was obviously just (toxic) background noise. The only gun I have now is my own, and I've changed my mind about selling it. Time to clean it and get back in practice.
