Cats to become a rabbit should gather immediately now here

Yay AAM! She is my favorite. I want to write in about my work issues, but they seem so complex and not applicable to other folks.

I'm terrifically busy with my ennui.

Seriously, what muffaletta question did y'all miss?

Why isn't everyone pelting me with JOY, dammit? - Zenkitty

Thought of all of you when I got knocked out on a question about muffalettas

I am SHOCKED that we have not covered all possible muffaletta knowledge!

The question was where the name came from - the meat, the dressing, or the bread. I guessed the dressing (since that's where all the controversy seems to lie), but it was the bread/roll (I don't know that I've ever seen a Buffista Bread Kerfuffle)!

Our wings are not tired.

Well, now we are in the know!

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

I would have had to guess on that, tbh

Yeah, I would have had to guess too.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

It's not been a good HQ week for me -- I went out on Marvel day because I got too far from the wifi in my apartment.

Sadface

Looks like we are not getting let go early today, I hear there is flooding on I-80 in town (although I think it is slowing-down-traffic flooding, not underwater-cars flooding), and I REALLY don't want to start anything new but have 2 hours left of work and not nearly that much stuff that needs to be done today to keep me busy.

Oh god, I'm so grateful we got let out at 2:30. I almost didn't make it that far!

And now my pumpkin cheesecake bars are in the oven.

I’d be lying if I didn’t say that I miss them all tonight…

(I don't know that I've ever seen a Buffista Bread Kerfuffle)!

I feel like starting a Bread Kerfuffle, but that's just because I'm spitting mad after reading about the tech bros taking over sourdough bread baking. [link]

My favorite quote is

These tech bros, who often unknowingly operate in closed-loop communities where men elevate men (a phenomenon that is in no way limited to the tech industry), were able to insert themselves, through an outward posturing as experts, into the dominant narrative of the bread world.

Because in this year of 2018, it takes a special kind of dense to not know that you're operating in a closed-loop community like that.

bUT - in other news, would someone with more tech experience than I be willing to help me on a (customer support) job application? One of the questions is about APIs, and I don't seem to be looking at it correctly.
