Timelies all!
Mr. S has been “watching” Scooby-Doo Mystery Incorporated.(meaning he’s been fast-forwarding through many eps) I’m so tired of it.
Wesley: Feng Shui. Gunn: Right. What's that mean again? Wesley: That people will believe anything. Actually, in this place, Feng Shui will probably have enormous significance. I'll align my furniture the wrong way and suddenly catch fire or turn into a pudding.
'Conviction (1)'
Natter 77: I miss my friends. I miss my enemies. I miss the people I talked to every day.
Off-topic discussion. Wanna talk about corsets, duct tape, butt kicking, or physics? This is the place. Detailed discussion of any current-season TV must be whitefonted.

Fandom means never having to say "But where would I wear that?"

Why isn't everyone pelting me with JOY, dammit? - Zenkitty
It's always the rich old guy in a mask, Mr. S. Always.

I am a woman of various inclinations and only some of the time are they to burn everything down in frustration
Welp, still no instructions for communicating with customers and my work day is over, so I will not be standing by any longer…

Wow, -t. That... sounds exceedingly stupid. Run away! Run away!
Thing 1: it appears that I've lost enough weight that I'm no longer considered obese according to the BMI, although the BMI can go fuck itself. So, nice I guess?
Thing 2: I made it through my performance evaluation and had a reasonably productive conversation even though I've had the overwhelming urge to quit my job and disappear into the woods. The main argument against quitting is that healthcare is expensive and we're still in the panini, so maybe I should stick around a bit longer for health insurance and equity that hasn't vested yet.

Geez, -t, that's mind boggling.

I have more info. on the ecstatic dance house party. There will be magic treats (which, if I'm thinking of the right kind of magic treats, don't work on me because of my new magical sped-digesting powers, more's the pity. I've tested the theory twice now. Legally!)
BUT, we have also confirmed that I can simply spectate if don't care to dance ecstatic-like. Odds are improving that I'll go.

Don’t take that magic treats if they are, like, monkey paws but otherwise that sounds like fun, JenP! Looking forward to your report.
It continues to be enraging that our jobs can hold us hostage via health insurance. Maybe things will get better post-conversation, shrift? I hope so.

Our wings are not tired.
I am very much looking forward to the ecstatic dance house party report.
I hope tomorrow is a saner workday, -t.
As annoying as it is to have any other person have control of the remote, it is a large multiplier more annoying to have a child in control. Eeep!

It probably won’t be, Laura! The Outlet Sale starts tomorrow, that never leads to more sanity. If we can’t get the thingy fixed, will it impact the sale? Who knows? I’m scheduled to cashier 2-6 either way. Which means I don’t intend to start working until maybe 9:30 but I don’t know if I’ll be able to get away with that.

I thought you said magic "teats" and I was intrigued.
