Death is your art. You make it with your hands day after day. That final gasp, that look of peace. And part of you is desperate to know: What's it like? Where does it lead you? And now you see, that's the secret. Not the punch you didn't throw or the kicks you didn't land. She really wanted it. Every Slayer has a death wish. Even you.

Almost 2 months on the job and I am attending my new employee orientation. I am hoping with the ramp up of online training this delayed scheduling can be something addressed in our offices. I was originally scheduled for sometime in June, so this is actually an improvement.

Meanwhile, you can see how much I am paying attention.

Rainy day here and I just want to go to bed.

I'm curious how Trump's new executive order will play out. If it holds up, it could have a really chilling effect on the Internet at large. Might even effect the new Buffista site.

Ended up with a double post, so I deleted the second one. Which means I've now triple-posted.

I am on hour 3 of orientation and here's what we've done:

- workplace violence
- EAP
- Sexual Harassment

Not even halfway through the slides. I hate everything.

I look more rad than Lutheranism

Embarrassing scenario: say you get scratched on your bare leg by a piece of old metal (kind of like thick wire, like you'd make a trellis with). It's definitely a scratch, not a puncture, but it's about 4 inches long and drew blood.

Do you go get a tetanus shot or not?

I am extremely clumsy.

Ann, that's a ferret.

If the metal isn't rusted or anything like that, I wouldn't go to the doctor. But I'm more likely not to see a doctor when I should than the other way around.

Me, too.

Well, it's been outdoors for years, so it's not exactly clean.

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

That's exactly when you get a tetanus shot if you haven't had one recently. I guess a scratch is more easily cleaned than a puncture so maybe you don't need it but I think it's a good idea.
