And I myself will be wearing pink taffeta as chenille would not go with my complexion.

I'm terrifically busy with my ennui.

Today is stupid, and I would like to cancel it. We can resume tomorrow morning.

Our wings are not tired.

I've adulted so hard this morning I don't have to adult for a week. My license was suspended in 2015 because the state is stupid and I ignored it and have driven all this time because reasons. So this morning I spent the time on the phone talking to a human at my insurance company where I have had coverage for more than 20 years and they faxed the state the proof needed to reinstate my license. Within 24-48 hours I should be a licensed driver again.

And then Ortus came and said "It's Ortin' time" and they all Orted off into the sunset

Burn the motherfuckers down, Tep. That is no way to treat a patient. Or, you know, a HUMAN FUCKING BEING.

"There are few hours in life more agreeable than the hour dedicated to the ceremony known as afternoon tea."

Teppy, that is horrifying treatment. I'm glad you're going to do something about it.

"There are few hours in life more agreeable than the hour dedicated to the ceremony known as afternoon tea."

TCG's stepmom very helpfully told me when I was upset yesterday after my doctors appointment that at least everything could be easily fixed with diet.

Amazingly she lives.

I am a woman of various inclinations and only some of the time are they to burn everything down in frustration

So, I went to get coffee - the communal carafe had something like a quarter of a cup left. Pour that into my cup, get new batch going. Pop over to a couple of coworkers desks to chat about a work issue while I wait for the coffee to drip. Get back to my desk and realie I do not have my coffee. Go back to the coffee maker and see that it is not on. Can't remember if I forgot to turn it on or if somebody came behind me and, seeing teh carafe was empty, turned it off. Both pretty plausible. Turned it on, wandered off again, wandered back, finally have coffee.

It should be much more delicious than in actually is after all that.

Life moves pretty fast. You don't stop and look around once in a while, you could miss it.

Had a nice interview at the vet office, but unfortunately the pay is very low and there are no benefits, so no kitties and puppies for me. Back to the drawing board.

Sorry to hear that, Scrappy. How is the substitute teaching going?
