There's a woman in my section whose baby is due next month. She's getting a little annoyed with the surrounding guys being hypervigilant on her behalf. She sneezes, and someone offers her Vitamin C, another one asks if she needs a snack, and I don't think the guy who just came in with a tray of drinks made a special run instead of getting something while he was getting lunch, but I'm not sure. It's kind of sweet.
That's insane troll logic!

Aww, crap. A lot of ~ma Ouise's way.
This shit can let up any time now...

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

I'm home with Mr. S. The doctor said to keep him home today, but he can go back to daycare tomorrow. He's got antibiotics and eye drops.

Poor Mr S. I hope he's feeling better soon.

I'm terrifically busy with my ennui.
I was up at 6:20 for a meeting, and I am already so over this day.
Had my postponed chorus audition last night, for all the good postponing did. I still sang like crap, which was really embarrassing. I managed to pull it out in the sight-reading, so I'll start with them at the end of February.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
You'll be great, Dana!
So.... I did get the job! The salary offer isn't as much as I want, but if they can come up just a tad, I'll be happy. It's contingent on them talking to my current boss, which I think is TOTAL BULLSHIT, but OK. I mean, it's bullshit if they would ever pull the offer after I've already given notice, because how else could they talk to my current supervisor?

I am a woman of various inclinations and only some of the time are they to burn everything down in frustration
Go Jesse! That seems like a weird contingency unless the organizations are connected in some way.
I am against this whole sickness and mortality thing. Enough is enough.
I went to bed before 9 last night and still could not drag myself out of bed this morning. I'm at work, but no shower and no breakfast, I guess it's good I managed pants. And I think I have enough change in my purse to get something for lunch out of the vending machine. What a stupid day.
