Also, I have to laugh at myself - in a conversation in the kitchenette I said "it's probably been 15 years" only to realize on my way back to my desk it has actually been 22 years. Passage of time, y'all, why does this keep happening?

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

Ann, that's a ferret.
As a strong introvert, I might be able to manage networking and a party on the same day if the networking is low-key enough, like a (10- to 15-person) division lunch. Otherwise -- well, I don't do well in group schmoozes.

I'm terrifically busy with my ennui.
I may not say something about decimate every time I hear it, but I think it. If it's on the TV, I may yell about it.

I am an extrovert and could do networking and party but...more so if they weren't both work?? Like work networking and a friends party or hobby party or something? Otherwise that's a lot of work stuff.

It turns out that I have to overnight the notarized Delegation of Authority to my nephew. So he should get it tomorrow and hopefully can get it turned around on Friday sometime.
Adulting is hard. I'm all out of adult.

mac's car is purchased. In true mac fashion he refused to go see his grandparents yesterday or today. They paid for half the car.

I don't say anything anymore, but I FREQUENTLY give myself little lectures on exactly why it still bothers me. I have reasons. They don't need to be everyone's reasons, I am trying to accept that, but I have them.
I can see that meara. Work thing + friend thing would be easier than 2 work things for me, too, and I'm way introverted.
Yay, car. Oh, mac. SMH. Come on, kid. That ain't cool.

Every now and then, I think I might actually be a little odd.

My brain is exhausted. I just spend three hours at the Unemployment Commission listening to a seminar and filling out paperwork, and tomorrow I have to go back for a different seminar, and Friday I have to go back for something ELSE. Looking for a job is a full-time job. I hope they can help me find something or train for something, because I'm feeling useless and completely demoralized.

Fandom means never having to say "But where would I wear that?"
Timelies all!
Kinda glad there isn't a work holiday party. I've had enough holiday music at work to last a long time.
