We have been allowed to wear BERMUDA SHORTS! Because it turns out it's hot running books out to people's trunks. We've never been allowed to wear shorts before. It's thrilling. (I do not own Bermuda shorts, but I have been coming to the office in skirts and hairy legs that have not been shaved since October, because I am out of fucks and yes I did give a month's notice today.)
You're a bloody puppet! You're a wee little puppet man!

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
Congrats, flea!

Fandom means never having to say "But where would I wear that?"
Timelies all!
I screwed up majorly at work, causing damage to an expensive piece of equipment. If we're lucky, it can be fixed. Needless to say, I'm a bit stressed about it.(As if I didn't have enough things to stress over.)

Our wings are not tired.
Oh dear, Sheryl. I hope it can be fixed. We all screw up. Try to not be hard on yourself about it.

I am a woman of various inclinations and only some of the time are they to burn everything down in frustration
Congrats, flea! Hope that turns out well.
I'm sorry, Sheryl. Hope that works out ok.

Wow, flea! Congrats.
In other news, I forgot to call the help line for my office chair before 5pm Eastern, BUT through some perseverance I did manage to get the back off the chair! The back is now slotted in correctly and the tension controls work! The only drawback is that I should have put on a piece of trim before getting the chairback in place, but it's entirely decorative and I am not disassembling the chair again.

flea, I think you did the right thing for yourself: life is too short to be miserable at work.
Take some time before jumping right back into anything.
On that note, my sister told her boss she's retiring in October. I'm SO JEALOUS.

Ugh, Sheryl. Sorry about that.
