"Look, son, if it's good enough for Shirley Bassey, it's good enough for you."

Rooomy. I like that in a new thread, and I appreciate the conversation pit and the fire pit outside and the pit of despair behind the stockroom closet.

It's pitty.

You were a wrong baby who grew up wrong. The wrong kind of wrong. It's better you hear it from a friend.

I am at Ryan's school concert. They opened with the string ensemble playing the theme to Game of Thrones. Valar Morghulis.

Argh all the talk of deposits for healthcare is putting more ticks in the 'do not move to the US' column. Scary!

Of course, Brexit is piling up ticks in the 'get out of here' column, so.

Occasionally I’m callous and strange

Canada. Or Australia.

I don't know, I've been reading complaints from Canadians about the quality of their healthcare system lately. Yeah the price is right, but at least some people are finding they got what they paid for.

I think we might be eligible for Canada? But not for Australia . Of course if Clinton turns the US into a socialist wonderland I'll be on the first plane over.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

As long as you're healthy and traditionally employed, the system here works great!

And Massachusetts has very good hospitals and doctors. (Please move here)

"I'm useless alone." // "We're all useless alone. It's a good thing you're not alone."

Holy cow, I am not in the right frame of mind to be cheerful and interested for a 7AM meeting.

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

There are rumors about layoffs at my company. Well, they aren't rumors, practically a whole department got laid off. The rumor is they're eyeing Books next, since that department has never been profitable. (And I'm all, "but aren't we a non-profit?" Still gotta make money, I guess.) My gossipy coworker who's my conduit to the grapevine is fearing our department will be next. I doubt it, we're the most profitable department besides sales/marketing, but you never know what our evil overlords are planning.

I don't know how much to fret. Some job~ma would be appreciated, if you can spare some.
