Wash: Don't fall asleep now. Sleepiness is weakness of character. Ask anyone. You're acting captain. Know what happens you fall asleep now? Zoe: Jayne slits my throat, and takes over. Wash: That's right. Zoe: And we can't stop it.

We have a fire safe for documents, and copies with one of my sisters.

If you tune in now, you will see my DH testifying today in Congress: [link]

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

Wow, Sparky!

I am also Team Fire Safe. If you don't have one of those, shoebox in a closet?

I am full of doubt this morning. First I caught myself thinking that maybe leggings ARE pants, and then the eShakti tunic I put on does not have pockets and I just don't know what to think anymore.

Our wings are not tired.

Go Mr. Sparky!

That's the pain / That cuts a straight line down through the heart / We call it love

Yeah, I guess we should get a fire safe. I'm just kicking myself that I didn't make a better mental note at the time. I've looked in all the obvious places (file drawers, sock drawer), but haven't checked with M yet, so I'm hoping he has them somewhere safe.

I hope they turn up soon, Kate!

Ugh, apparently the fridge on the other side of the door badly needed cleaning out and the smell is wafting all the way over here. Making my eyes water. Bad day to not have my Vog mask!

I'm terrifically busy with my ennui.

Twitter tells me that Jussie Smollett's lawyer tells all of us that the charges against him have been dropped. With the caveat that this is third-hand Twitter info, WT everloving F.

"There are few hours in life more agreeable than the hour dedicated to the ceremony known as afternoon tea."

Dana, CNN is saying the same thing. This is the strangest story ever.

Here's hoping M has dealt with them and knows where they are, Kate!

I am so so so not wanting to do work. We had an audit, over stuff I was not involved in. And I had to respond to stuff, which was both frustrating (because I didn't do it) and not too bad (because none of it was my fault). And now they've responded to our response and asked for more. And looking at what they want, I seriously thought "Or I could just quit". Jesus. I do not appreciate.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

I have a weirdly schadenfreude-y piece of good news: the coworker who thinks I'm incompetent misinterpreted something I said to her and shared that misinterpretation Very Widely with Higher-Ups and Important People -- and she realizes that it was her fault! And not mine! That feels like some kind of breakthrough, but even if it's just this one thing, it's such a relief not to be the fuck-up in her eyes.

Yay, Jesse!

Ugh, meara.

I got the report and summary for my conference call that happens in (checks time) 75 minutes out! This month has been constant crises, y'all, I have had enough of it.
