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

Cat is fed, no more doing stuff for me. Whew.

BTW, my dept brunch thing today was pretty good. My boss declared no budget considerations so we should all have dessert and fancy coffees and whatnot, which is always nice. My boss's boss gave a little speech in which he said (among other things, but this is what stood for me) that we (the dept) do not get enough credit for what we do but that will be changing in 2020. I'm not even all the psyched about possible changes, just hearing someone higher up the ladder say we don't get recognition we deserve us really affirming. And then the White Elephant exchange, which was really a Yankee Swap, I think, but all those things are pretty much outside my experience so maybe not, but everyone seemed to end up with little things they were happy with and the whole thing was good natured and fun. So yay for that.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

Is this the Buffistas motto?

Possibly!

That does sound good, -t. I'm looking forward to my work party tomorrow, and hoping for the return of the mashed potato bar!

Cats to become a rabbit should gather immediately now here

I work with studentS, so they usually have a thought pattern. I anted them to sit at the caxcabt receptionist desk and they weren't. Turns out, after digging, it wasn't set up to print! But I had to dig to get to that, very blatantly. (Like not "help me understand but Why the Fuck aren't you doing this thing?)

I came up Questioner on the quiz, which isn't wrong exactly but not completely all the time right, either.

Total Buffista motto!

And Im very much an Obliger, occasionally Upholder. But I've read her whole book and...still am only so so at figuring out how to make myself do things.

I am not surprised, I am a questioner with strong upholder values. I Think all the personalities tests are sort of bunk, but it also helps me understand that not everyone thinks the same as me, which is a flaw of mine.

I'm terrifically busy with my ennui.

I remembered you sleeping with me, but couldn't remember why!

That's the joke! I knew there was a joke there, I just couldn't quite find it!
