It's because you didn't have a strong father figure isn't it?

Eeep, be careful Jesse. I looked pretty funny walking when I was up north. Each and every step deliberate. But I didn't fall!

I'm terrifically busy with my ennui.

I must remember that last week's feedback session was much worse, which may help me refrain from wishing a cartoon anvil would drop on my coworker's head.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

I feel like "not worse" than last week's session is not a high enough bar, and cartoon anvils may still be appropriate.

I just said to my coworker that I don't have enough time to be at work this week, and she suggested taking Friday off! Brilliant! I really don't think I'm going to have anything to do that day anyway, work-wise, and as she pointed out, I can do some stuff from home if there's anything that's actually urgent.

My unit's director brought in Bailey's-laced chocolate truffles. All is forgiven. Not that I have a lot to forgive him for. He's actually building up a fair bit of credit.

I went back to sleep for a bit after my meeting ended. I am less homicidal. (Also, there may have been doughnuts.)

Hooray for non-homicidal doughnuts!

I'm off FB for the week per NAACP boycot, I may be even chattier than usual. Be warned.

Yay doughnuts!

The boycott is a full week? Dang I didn't notice that somehow, I thought it was a day.

I didn't know about the NAACP thing at all, but it looks like just today, which means I already didn't comply at all. Ooops.

Yeah, I didn't know about the NAACP boycott, either. Sorry. I don't usually cross picket lines.
