Here's hoping that mac comes down off his high horse. Alas, some mistakes you have to make for yourself before the lessons stick.

I'm terrifically busy with my ennui.
Work is insane today, largely because of people. I hate them. People.

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

Remember that the frontier of the Rebellion is everywhere. And even the smallest act of insurrection pushes our lines forward.

Grr. Had annual review with my boss this morning which was basically like "you're awesome and you're doing awesome and moving on to the "opportunities" section, if you want a promotion at some point, you'd need to take ownership of (tasks that are not my job and I've been told not to do and I wouldn't have time for)". And I was like "so, there's no chance I'm being promoted this year? And you can't be clear about what it is you think I'd need to do to be promoted?" (It's a title change, not an actual job description change). And I know folks who've been promoted after two years, and I'm about to hit three and she's saying well maybe next year at 4 years in. And I'm pissed.

Fandom means never having to say "But where would I wear that?"
Timelies all!
Sigh...just found out the kids activities for ages 3-5 on the cruise ship require full potty training. Mr. S isn't quite there yet. Now we have to figure out what to do with him on the days we're at sea.

LDB at work.
I'm pretty sure you can report that to OSHA.

Bing Crosby isn't a bad way to go out, tho. Last year it was the Bing Crosby-David Bowie version that got me, and I couldn't complain, because though I really dislike LDB in general, I thing the Bing-Bowie version is lovely.

I want to hear LDB from a rock band with a kick-ass drummer, just to liven it up a bit. Let's really hear that drummer play for him.
