You know, with the exception of one deadly and unpredictable midget, this girl is the smallest cargo I've ever had to transport. Yet by far the most troublesome. Does that seem right to you?

this mess was yours / now your mess is mine

I feel like if I did that, they could smite me righteously with the power of THE LORD.

With nine children I’d think they wouldn’t have time for such petty aggro moves! Yikes!

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

Alternatively, you could write the date out in a fancy script "I hope this fifth day of the first month of the year of our lord two thousand twenty-two finds you well". I do feel that would require some calligraphy to pull off. And correct capitalization, I guess, but I'm not gonna. SMITE ME I CAN TAKE IT

Or maybe whatever the date is in the old Julian calendar.

That would be a slap in the face for Catholics. Or so my Orthodox relatives think. Oh, hey, happy Orthodox Christmas Adam, I guess

I'm terrifically busy with my ennui.

The Y key on my work keyboard is failing. This is more of an issue than I would have thought, as I try to type "physical security boundary" and "cyber asset system."

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

Timelies all!

Mr. S woke us up early again. Work was super busy and we're still short-staffed. On the other hand, Mr. S goes back to school tomorrow.

Cats to become a rabbit should gather immediately now here

So, we just went online through the end of January. But are still doing in person orientation tomorrow. They all have negative PCRs.

I remember the crazy days. 500 posts an hour. Nubmer! Natgbsb

My self-eval is due tomorrow and I hatessssss it. Can I remember anything I’ve done? No. Can I write, just a crap ton of busy work? No.

Whyyyyyy?!?!! Just give me a 10% pay raise and the option for an on-going temp position to supervise.

My self eval is due Tuesday, just found out today. We're using a new process that maybe will not suck so much, or at least will probably suck in a different way. I'm trying to go into it with a somewhat positive attitude. But it intrinsically requires me to remember what I've done in the past year and I'm really pretty opposed to that.
