All sorrows can be borne if you put them into a story. Tell me a story.

At work we were determining what color temperature some LED tape was. The options were warm white, cool white, or neutral white. My crew got the giggles when I threw in chaotic and lawful.

Good news, Chris!

I'm spending the week "reviewing" (read: rewriting) a contractor's draft report. This is our last chance for substantive changes, and it's so desperately flawed, and I clearly cannot just tell them what to do: I have to make the changes.

But now I've gotten to the point where I think the whole analysis needs to be taken apart and reconstructed because it's just completely not organized properly, and I'm just out of spoons. Should have been working on it all afternoon, and instead I kept going over to the internet to hear the latest about the Cohen hearings.

Argh.

There are apparently hella cheap flights to Hawaii right now, but I'm too busy at work to take advantage of them...

You were a wrong baby who grew up wrong. The wrong kind of wrong. It's better you hear it from a friend.

That leaves True Neutral and I think that has to go to Donna.

From now on I'm going to refer to True Neutral alignment as True "Treat yo'self!".

Woe to the fucking wicked.

Yup. Southwest is about to start having flights out here, which is throwing the whole market into upheaval. But consider this the standard pitch for people coming to the big island (although maybe not so much this year from May through Labor Day or so, what with the Debet-let on the way)

I am also on the "having to re-do work someone else did poorly" team at the moment. It is, in fact, not fucking great.

That seems like an entirely good call.

Or Maeby?

I think she's more Chaotic Neutral.

I'm terrifically busy with my ennui.

There is insufficient internet content to distract me from my meeting.

Archer is another show where it would be hard to find three people who could be called 'Good'. Lana, maybe Pam, then...

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

I think my hated project is actually at a decent place, and I just sent it to someone else to see what he can do with it. Now I'm just crossing my fingers that my boss agrees.

That sounds awesome, Jesse. I hope the boss agrees.
