Timelies all!
Mr. S's other shoe has been found(someone turned it in to the security desk), and my car is fixed!(They replaced the entire mirror, which is what I kind of expected, but still an additional charge on my credit card. Ah, well)
And Kaylee, what the hell's goin' on in the engine room? Were there monkeys? Some terrifying space monkeys maybe got loose?

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

I am a woman of various inclinations and only some of the time are they to burn everything down in frustration
Yay for found and fixed stuff, Sheryl!
Continuing travel~ma for all travelers.
I'm getting a "waiting for socket" message and it's making me want to look around nervously for Jack Bauer.

Why isn't everyone pelting me with JOY, dammit? - Zenkitty
I see that Barb has checked in on FB; are all other Seattleistas accounted for?
Seattleistas: West Seattle is nowhere near the train, right?

Nowhere near. It derailed an hour south of Seattle.
I did have a friend who was driving seattle to Portland this morning but luckily she left early enough that she was not there.

Thanks, that's what I thought, but I haven't seen my nieces on FB yet today.

Oh, man, I had to google the news. That's terrible.

I'm beginning to think a joint hiring campaign was not the best idea. Because every sane applicant is indicating interest in all open positions. And we're hiring entry level me & other mgrs are everything from entry to software engineers to career PhD. So I have to sift through a lot of overqualified/inapplicable submissions. And this is the first I'm the hiring mgr. I'm so out of my depth. And I disappear in 2 more days.
And I have a shitton of things to at least stabilize at work, and so many fucking people want to meet with me!

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
My best candidate just withdrew from my hiring pool. BOOOOOO.
In other news about my job, I get forwarded semi-serious emails about Winkelvii and bitcoins.

I'm way too generous reading resumes. I need to lock down my hard criteria.
(Also, fastest swim in 6 weeks. Wee bit stressed.)
