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

And the person I am supposed to train to take one of my accounts for a week starting Wednesday is out today. I'm gonna need some extra coffee.

Our wings are not tired.

Yes, I never thought about med school students having yearbooks. Mostly because the students I have known barely had time to eat much less organize yearbooks.

Now my ERP won't let me enter this one stupid order. I have offended the gremlins or something. Dammit.

'we all walk this earth feeling we are frauds. The trick is to be grateful and hope the caper doesn't end any time soon"

In 1984, med school might have had different expectations.

I never thought any school after high school had yearbooks. I was apparently wrong.

After 2 hours of my support guy trying to help me and saying things like "well, that's weird" and "that's not supposed to happen" we called the software support people and he tried and after a while said he wanted to consult with a colleague and call us back and I still can't get this one stupid order entered. Argh.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

Oh yeah, I got a college yearbook, but for no apparent reason. I don't know that I've opened it again.

"Look, son, if it's good enough for Shirley Bassey, it's good enough for you."

My college yearbook (for my Freshman year) had cartoons by Bill Watterson in it, and it's quite valuable now.

"I remember when they eventually introduced that drug kingpin who murdered people and smuggled drugs inside snakes and I was like 'Finally. A normal person.'” —RahvinDragand

I was fond of my college yearbooks because, unlike my high school ones, there was actual evidence of me attending other than my official picture. (I was in several clubs in high school, earned a number of awards, drew the design for the school spirit crew's shirts, and actually did have a social life with my group of nerdy friends, but no one from the yearbook staff ever seemed to be present.)

Huh. Well, I lost all my yearbooks from wherever in one of my involuntary purges of belongings, so maybe I just don't remember right. Pretty sure UNO didn't offer them for the MBA program, though.

I know my college had an actual freshman Facebook (before the online Facebook was a thing) and there may have been a yearbook for senior year? But I didn't get one. Not sure who would have.
