Ugh, that is the worst, msbelle. Stabbing them seems the only solution.

Fandom means never having to say "But where would I wear that?"
Timelies all!
I've found that I've been more snappish lately than I used to be. How much of that is anxiety, how much is perimenopause and how much is Mr. S, I don't know.

'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"
Anxiety and Mr. S alone would be a lot before you brought in perimenopause. I'm worried and anxious for all of you!

"There are few hours in life more agreeable than the hour dedicated to the ceremony known as afternoon tea."
Sheryl, I'm asking myself the same questions often.

I am a woman of various inclinations and only some of the time are they to burn everything down in frustration
We apparently have a "company paid mandatory fun celebration" next month.
It probably actually will be fun, but what a weird phrase.

Cats to become a rabbit should gather immediately now here
I think they mean a mandatory company paid fun experience. Maybe
My anxiety is manifesting itself by barfing I think. I have had to take three days off work, but I think it is work.

Why isn't everyone pelting me with JOY, dammit? - Zenkitty
Ugh, Sophia, no fun.
-t, could be ugh, could be actual fun. I always get nervous when presented with those "opportunities" myself. Fingers crossed.

Our Company Fun Opportunity, ie, Summer Picnic, is the end of this month. I shall not partake, even though I've had executives pout at me for it.

We started doing our "summer picnic" onsite, as a lunch bbq on a workday. Because you can't require people to partake of the "fun" on their own time so attendance was less than awesome. This way, near 100% participation, less cost to the company, and people like that they get a lightly long lunch (plus free food). We have games, but don't require people to play them.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
We just had a celebratory happy hour this afternoon -- 3:30-5, plenty of food, a few brief remarks. Delightful!
