Oh, yeah. There was this time I was pinned down by this guy that played left tackle for varsity... Well, at least he used to before he was a vampire... Anyway, he had this really, really thick neck, and all I had was a little, little Exact-O knife ... You're not loving this story.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

I over-identify with this, Jesse.

Boooo! I'm drinking rum and watching Brooklyn 99.

I'm watching hockey. I should get a beer at the next commercial break!

I'm getting things done, but damn. I probably should make time to figure out what can and can't be delegated, and then find even more time to train people on what can be delegated. But I think you see the problem there.

I just watched the launch of the heavy lift rocket and those booster landings were amazing.

I'm terrifically busy with my ennui.

I need to get up and go to bed, but I'm a toddler-style levels of "don't wanna you can't make me."

Every now and then, I think I might actually be a little odd.

Gud, I cheered through the whole launch! When the Rockets landed right on their targets, it was Amazing! It looked like sci-fi.

I know! Or the cover of every '50s rocket ship book.

a little dumb to be miffed that my hair isn't up on my salon's Instagram, right?

Eh, only in as much as insta is dumb.

Hoping tonight I sleep better than last night. Ugh.

Yeah, my first step is hiring the people to train, and ditto.

I feel like I overreacted to the Trump presidency when he was elected, but now I'm starting to get concerned again. Don't get me wrong, he's been as bad as advertised in most ways, (EPA rollbacks and slow-downs, throwing away world leadership by gutting the state department and just generally being a prat, Sessions pushing back on the idea of criminal justice reform, so on and so forth) but the autocratic stuff didn't seem as bad as I thought. Now I'm getting really concerned about a purge at the FBI and Justice department and having them turn into political weapons.

The IC haaates him. They'll do it By The Book, but they're going to get him out.

I just sat on an empty conference line for 3 minutes before I realized I'd got the time wrong.
