My work's illegal, but at least it's honest.

I'm terrifically busy with my ennui.
Coworker is discussing whether or not to get up at 2:30AM to attend a meeting in France. She is out of her freaking mind.

It's hard getting motivated when you feel completely worthless.

I am a woman of various inclinations and only some of the time are they to burn everything down in frustration
I'm sorry, Gud.

Days shrink and grow cold, sunlight through leaves is my song. Winter is long.
Koko was such a force for awareness of the depth and breadth of primate--possibly other animals as well--emotional and rational life. I'm sure she was happy in her life, with unusual enrichment, and relationships with her keepers and trainers.
I'm glad we humans had her to teach us.

That sucks, Gud. I hope your day has improved.
TIL that there's a bar near me that is like a froyo shop, but for beer, wine, and cider. You get a glass and a bracelet that they link to your credit card. There's a wall of taps. You go to whatever looks interesting and pour however much you want. You get charged by the ounce. If you want to try a splash of cider and follow it up by two ounces of IPA and round it off with a full 8 oz of stout, go for it. The bracelet automatically cuts you off after 32 oz, but you can reload it if the owners think you don't look too blitzed. If localistas are interested, it's [link]
