I am extremely tired.
My heart expands / 'tis grown a bulge in't / inspired by / your beauty effulgent.

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.

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

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
I woke up at 5:30, walked almost 6.5 miles today and had two drinks out (!) with friends (!!) after work (!!!), so I'd better sleep well tonight, is what I'm saying.

Days shrink and grow cold, sunlight through leaves is my song. Winter is long.
Um. I'm with Dana on the news-cancelling headphones.
Can we maybe make a news thread for hard news, and save Natter for news-light conversation? I come here for sanctuary, and right now, it's not that. I care about all of you and what's going on in your lives. But I can't keep up with you if news keeps intruding.
I do keep up with the news, I'm not completely avoidant. I'd just rather not deal with it *here*. Here is where I go to set that aside for a little while and relax a bit with my friends. It's okay if you don't agree. I just thought I'd bring it up.

Drinks after work, Jesse? Wowwwww, what's that like? I don't even remember....

It's been literally two years!

Our wings are not tired.
Going out for drinks with friends. Ahhh, I'll just sit with that notion for a bit. Well done.

Friends don't let friends read "Atlas Shrugged"
I now have noise-cancelling headphones ... they're blocking the sound of the techies doing arcane technical stuff with our servers. yay!

I remember the crazy days. 500 posts an hour. Nubmer! Natgbsb
It’s work from home day today. I’m only one day a week wfh and have been back in the office most days for months and months.
Wfh means I can watch movies and/or knitting podcasts while doing data entry or other non-thinky work.
I’m taking advantage of being well rested and non-hectic workday to do some heavy lifting on serious movies for Oscar Watch.

I am currently in the dentist's chair waiting for a cleaning. Just a cleaning. No drills, no needles, no nothing. Practically nirvana.
Then I need to go home and get a bunch of WFH done.
And yay for drinks after work!
