I had to get up super early for meetings this morning. The MUNI driver, who was a black woman, did me a solid and waited long enough for me to get on the train because she saw me running up the hill. If I can figure out how to get her props online, I will do it. It was still dark when I arrived downtown but dawn was breaking, so the Bay Bridge was lit up and beautiful. Those are my "maybe everything isn't hopeless bullshit" moments from today.
Ah, yes, of course. The gypsies, they gave you your soul. The gypsies are filthy people. Ptui! We shall speak of them no more.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
Not that I'm worried, just so it doesn't confuse people who are like MRI WUT?
That was me! Scrolling back, a little confused. Thank you.

I used to do freelance copyediting for recipe bloggers. I thought it was so weird they had to tell a little story before they gave the dang recipe.
My very vague and possibly wrong understanding is that they have to have some sort of "original" content so they can get ad and affiliate link revenue.
Those are my "maybe everything isn't hopeless bullshit" moments from today.
Those are good ones! And we need every "maybe everything isn't hopeless bullshit" moment that we can get.

I remember the crazy days. 500 posts an hour. Nubmer! Natgbsb
I was supposed to have a vaca day today, but I left 1.5 hours early yesterday with some things undone so I popped in. Turns out the other 2 office people are at training and boss did not come in to help, so one guy was trying to cover it all. I stayed, planned to leave at lunch. A million mistakes were found, I did not leave. Now the other guy has gone to lunch and only a very new yardhsnd is left outside here, so I don't feel like I can leave. I am unpleased with these turns of event.

That sucks, msbelle. I'm sorry.

You always do this. We get tipsy, and you take advantage of my love of the scientific method.
Nice! P-38!
