Feeling pretty hopeless this morning.
No, it's shiny! I like to meet new people. They've all got stories...

I'm terrifically busy with my ennui.

This may cheer you up ... a little ...baby's first exam.
Skinner stared intently at my monitor to see what was squealing.

I am a woman of various inclinations and only some of the time are they to burn everything down in frustration
I am back at work after being on vacation for a week. Now, my vacation was not super fun or anything, but being back at work is definitely a drag.
Glad to hear people who should be able to vote can! How ridiculous that it takes a billionaire taking an interest to get there.

What is even happening?
Feeling pretty hopeless this morning.
Me too, Dana. And everything else I've tried to say in response just sounds stupid, e.g. "I hate this." WHO DOESN'T CINDY?
Toddson, thank you so very much for sharing the article and video of the baby panda's exam. It let me escape for however long it took to read and watch.
Where is everyone?
Oh you know, occupying the same 600 square feet I've been in for the last six months.

Woohoo! 11,940 steps/5.1 miles!
In one day, Hec? (Or six months?)
Does anyone stay in touch with vw? I've been wondering how she's doing.

Not so nice is that I'm about to ruin a Friday morning for a bunch of people because of a series of unfortunate events and an upset foreign government. - shrift
I want to curl up and shut out the world. I'm numb, and heartbroken. Unfortunately I can't do that today. I'm just finishing call 2 of 6, and 5 of them are video on.
Cindy, she's active on FB and Instagram. She's doing as well as any of us are right now. Her daughter is a delight and a bright spot on my screen.

Because books.
I was wondering about Norah the other day. I hope she's well.

Apartment~ma for my son this afternoon. I am going to look at this place with his girlfriend as the only time we could see it was when he is at work. It is a bit more expensive than some others, but still quite affordable. Cute step up to kitchen and exposed brick. Close to my nephew's house and not a bad drive to work. He is staying here, thank all deities, so if the place is decent at all we will try and finalize today. [link]

Greetings of the season! Target has skeleton flamingos (also seasonally costumed ones).

Awesomely perfect!

I'm terrifically busy with my ennui.
I mostly feel hopeless, because it takes less energy than anger. But you know who I'm furious at? Obama and the Democrats. They should have fucking burned everything down to get Garland on the Supreme Court. And instead they just rolled over and let fucking McConnell do whatever he wanted.
And my senators don't give a SHIT about my opinion, but I write to them anyway, because that's what you're supposed to do, but Cornyn and fucking Ted Cruz aren't going to suddenly discover a conscience, or even think that I'm anything but an annoying little gadfly who their staffers have to push off with a form email.
I think hopelessness doesn't feel as bad as anger, either.
I have therapy in an hour. Not sure what I'll do besides tell her things we both know already.
