Oh, I wish those council guys would let me have an hour alone in the room with her, if I was larger and had grenades.

Herding cats for fun

The earthquake rumbled me wide awake at about 10:30. Nothing like waiting for aftershocks to put a person on edge, wondering where the closest pair of shoes might be.

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

Even after being back in California for 14 years, my first thought when I feel an earthquake is "maybe it's a big truck going by?". It's never a big truck. Big trucks don't even come that near my house.

Miss Kitty was not bothered at all. She's so chill.

I feel like I have to report on my breakfast just because it's kind of odd - amaranth porridge with pepper jack cheese. Pretty good!

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

Oh! I feel like some of you will appreciate this: one of the people I had staying with me this weekend is a roustabout! That's his job! He had just finished moving a Cirque du Soleil show to Atlanta.

Huh, my job has an offer out to my replacement and I have not even submitted a resignation letter.

CAUSE I HAVE NO NEW JOB!!!!

Yeah I am feeling super great!

Not at all having an anxiety attack.

Nope, just super chill.

Sent my boss a "hey, if you don't mind me asking, what's the plan here?" Email.

Also doing nothing but applying to jobs for the rest of the day.

I'm terrifically busy with my ennui.

Ay, msbelle. I was going to complain about having to actually physically go into the office this afternoon, but never mind.

Punishingly Intricate

Also, roustabout! Nice! I was just thinking today how I used to know a stevedore.
