I had a good day yesterday, went to a nice little bellydance fest, had a fun performance that we got compliments on, was super tired when I got home and went to bed by 8 but didn't actually get to sleep until 1 or 2 am because Morpheus is a fickle jerk sometimes. So I will be doing significantly more absently staring into space in between actual tasks today than usual.
Also, I can kill you with my brain.

What is even happening?
Nilly, it is so good to see you here again. I love your Yom Kippur thoughts. I am wishing you a good fast.
ZenKitty, I am so sorry to hear about your layoff. I hope you end up someplace much better and better for you.
Happy Anniversary, Nora and Tom!

Herding cats for fun
Those bastards, making the staff wait all weekend to learn what the reorganization will do for them. So sorry, Zen.

This article about women in Angel hit me in the feels
Yeah. Brought back some feels and gave me new thinky thoughts that I both want to spend some time with and don't. I'm glad people are continuing to engage with the material, because some of that I hadn't looked at quite like that before.

Because books.
Oh, Zen, they suck. I'm so sorry. ::hugs you::

It's weird because I started rewatching, from S1E1, just last week, without any clue the anniversary was coming up. And the article definitely hit home -- I hadn't thought about the series or those characters in a big picture way for a long time. And yeah, major suckage there. Especially Cordy/Charisma.

Oh, bah, Zen. May you prosper while they wallow in mediocrity.

I'm so sorry, Zen. That really sucks.

"There are few hours in life more agreeable than the hour dedicated to the ceremony known as afternoon tea."
Zen, that completely sucks. I'm so sorry.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
In somewhat fun news, Eliza Dushku may be a minor topic in a meeting I'm going to tomorrow?? (Her husband would be a larger topic.)

this mess was yours / now your mess is mine
Zen, that really, really blows. What a shitty thing.
