In The Kids Are Alright news, a coworker who is one year out of undergrad just told me about her good weekend knitting while watching Law & Order: SVU.
What? I'm not allowed to hit people? Wesley: Not people capable of genocide. Angel: Those are exactly the types of people I should be allowed to hit!

Lol, that sounds like an excellent weekend!
Yeah, saying "three days BEFORE you give us the final document, someone else we have to then provide it to will have already submitted that final document to a review" is...wobbly timey wimey stuff.

I am having the worst time focusing today. I don't know why. Ugh. Can't seem to get anything done or decide what to do or even slack off in a focused manner?

Life moves pretty fast. You don't stop and look around once in a while, you could miss it.
I have a snow day today! So far, haven't does a goddamn thing except sit in front of the fire and cruise the internet.

I am a woman of various inclinations and only some of the time are they to burn everything down in frustration
Glad to hear that, Consuela!
Oooh, Zamboni is a good skill!
I am having chicken noodle soup for lunch and it is delicious. As far as work goes, I feel totally behind and like I will never catch up, but I am actually getting things done, so maybe it's not that bad? We'll see, I guess.

I'd bring them in for an interview on the strength of that. C'mon, they found a way to live the dream!

Ask them what the craziest thing they've done on a Zamboni is.
From across the cubicle wall: "I'm barely remembering names, you want me to do faces too? Man, you're double-dipping there."

I'm terrifically busy with my ennui.
I've done MORE insurance stuff. We switched to husband's insurance because it was better and cheaper, but Jesus, I almost wish we'd stayed where we were, because at least everything was set up.
