My great aunt had 20k or so in uncashed checks stashed around. Most of them long past being valid. She had a pension and other income, so I'm glad at least that she wasn't struggling while having all that lying around.
It's like, in the middle of all this, I'm paranoid that you'll think I don't like poetry.

Agh. I got a gift from one of the people who sorta reports to me. Not even one of the ones I feel like I have a bit of rapport with! People! Don't gift up!! Now what do I do? Get her an awkward belated gift?? And then maybe have to get one for everyone? Ugh.

not your mom's socks.
belated job~ma Jesse!
36 hours to go in this project and then I get Hamilton. This is not a drill. I can do this.
{i hate all my words, my words are broken, what day is it?}

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
Almost Hamilton Day, apparently!!!
meara, ugh, that is super awkward. I think at this point you can safely pretend it never happened.

Remember that the frontier of the Rebellion is everywhere. And even the smallest act of insurrection pushes our lines forward.
You guys, the Second Avenue Subway is here, and I just rode it to get from therapy to work! I saved ten minutes, and I didn't have to ride the motherfucking 4/5/6 trains!

Sadly I don't see her in person--she lives in Louisiana. I've never even met her!
I don't want to be awake. I am really hating the late sunrises. A lot.

whoops, I realized I made a mistake on the forms for the death certificate. Argh.
And now I get to call the Social Security Administration...

I'm terrifically busy with my ennui.
Woohoo, new subway! That's cool.
Y'all, why did my coworker mess with my stuff? I don't care what she does with her stuff, but I had a system, and she has ruined my system.

I literally thought that day would never come. And another friend of mine posted on Facebook that she had just confidently told a tourist that there was no way the Second Avenue Subway was open, and it probably wouldn't be open until 2018! Ha!
