I'm full to the brim with don't wanna.

Holy shit, I think I'm actually going to do my expense report right now.

UGH GOD I need to finish mine.

The artist formerly associated with cupcakes.

You're not talking about Patti Lupone's character, are you?

Nope, the character that Professor Lyle introduced Vanessa to. The one who essentially replaced Professor Lyle, which is another thing that pissed me off.

Our wings are not tired.

Woo for the BP~ma! Got great readings and my PCP even texted me congrats. Don't know if it was the binaural beats or the lack of coffee, but I'll keep both up for awhile. I ordered some matcha tea powder because the office manager at my cardiologist's office swears by it instead of coffee.

Now the the doctoring is done time to think about traveling...

Yay Laura!

Tailgate thing turned out pretty fin, actually. I sat outside, the food was excellent, the remarks from our Managing Director were uncharacteristically short and I got a strawberry It's-IT to finish.

Now I have to work for 3 more hours, which is just silly, but what can you do?

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

Unless it's "go home and take a nap" in which case I wanna REAL BAD.

SAME.

I did my fucking expense report! Which took all of 20 minutes, including the system yelling at me because I was submitting so late. Honestly, why is that shit so hard to get done?

The good news is, now I get to go have a margarita with departing colleagues.

I'm having a high pain day and I have too much to do between now and Fathers Day.

Mmm, margarita.

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

Timelies all!

As a result of my mishap with the table the other day, I have a good sized bruise on the top of my foot.(It fell on my foot after scraping up my shin. )

Thrive to spite them

I just found out my aunt Jane had a TIA. My grandmother has been having them but this is my aunt. She is in the hospital for observation now. My grandmother lives with her and I'm wondering if the stress of caring for her played a part in Aunt Jane's stroke.

Dad was going to come up this weekend but instead he is with grandma.

Now let us crush something soft and watch it fountain blood. That is a girlish thing to want to do, yes?

Where do I go to register a complaint? Not only does this getting older thing lead to a distressing amount of weird sagging and unpleasant pains and such, but people I care about are quite distressingly frail. As witnessed by the fact that my dad broke his hip and had a full replacement the other week (he's okay!), and now the spouse's lovely grandmother has died (she's... not okay). And it's just a lot for a 10-ish day span.
