All right, no one's killing folk today, on account of our very tight schedule.

Aaaargh. Feeling like JZ now because I've been trying to explain to a friend why there's nothing wrong with what he's asking, the WAY he's asking it is kinda racist or at least micro-aggressive and assholish? Sigh. I feel like in person I'd be able to explain but FB comments are not great.

I remember the crazy days. 500 posts an hour. Nubmer! Natgbsb

super frustrating day at work....AGAIN. at least I actually got stuff done.

Came home to dogs having escaped the area I put them and destroyed foam from dog beds and a Christmas wreath of my mother's we had listed for sale online. They got major scoldings and sent to sit and think about their behavior.

I've got my dinner made (because I might be getting hangry).

I think tonight I will pack instead of apply for jobs.

All sorrows can be borne if you put them into a story. Tell me a story.

Remember having braces and how your teeth would ache after the braces were tightened? My entire face feels like that. So much for that flu shot I got.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

Y'all are not having a good day.

Even though it's NOT a Real ID that I'm applying for... it still is either necessary to give them an unexpired passport or a birth certificate.

That is ridiculous! They know exactly who you are!

And then there's me, running around with a real ID that wasn't, really. (Took care of that with a trip to the MVA a few weeks ago. Note: I still have same ID. It's all bullshit.)

Thrive to spite them

Ok corporate visits we had 1 semi ish corporate 1 today, 1 tomorrow and 1 Friday. There were TWO last week. They damn well be doing this to roll out upgrades or other improvements to our store because this is WAY Too much stress to put on people when it's this close to Christmas.

I am still not sure when I am going to get my car registration and driver's license situation fixed. I'm waiting for the paperwork from the bank.

Dear everyone: get a manila folder/waterproof plastic envelope/file box. Put in it: your birth certificate, social security card, passport, marriage certificate, government bonds. Put it in: your sock drawer, the front of your filing cabinet, the cubbyhole under your desk.

Signed, the board's mom, apparently.

Cats to become a rabbit should gather immediately now here

That's what I did! And then I forgot where I put it! I need, like a bulletin board to stick it on! (That's what I do with stuff at work I can't lose)

this mess was yours / now your mess is mine

Dear everyone: get a manila folder/waterproof plastic envelope/file box. Put in it: your birth certificate, social security card, passport, marriage certificate, government bonds. Put it in: your sock drawer, the front of your filing cabinet, the cubbyhole under your desk.

And then make a Word doc on your computer named "Where I Put Stuff", and write down in that document where the folder/envelope/box with all that stuff lives.

Signed,
Otherwise I would have no idea where my passport is

You always do this. We get tipsy, and you take advantage of my love of the scientific method.

...And then put the folder in a small fireproof safe/box. They're much harder to lose. Don't bother locking it, because you'll probably lose the key (or combination) at some point.
