Punishingly Intricate

Ugh, askye, that is so much bullshit. I can't believe they are making it hard to get boosters down there!!!!

Friends don't let friends read "Atlas Shrugged"

Saw a cartoon the other day - a couple looking at a flowering tree - and one says, "Look, the allergies are in bloom again."

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

That is how I feel every Spring, Toddson.

In sometimes-my-work-is-nice news, one of the guys who has been here forever is leaving to work for Cost Plus (or I guess they are better known as World Market now? They'll always be Cost Plus to me) [that is not the nice part, he's a good guy and I will miss him but it's no doubt a good move for him] and his direct reports are throwing a little goodbye lunch for him tomorrow. It is unfortunately scheduled during my regular call with senior sales, and I mentioned that to one of the members of that team so they would know why I wasn't there and she offered to make me up a plate so I can be sure to try some of the food she's really proud of before it's all taken by the ravenous hordes. Turkey eggrolls!

I started taking my OTC allergy pills a while ago, since I'm mildly allergic to assorted environmental things (tree pollen, dust, cats). I'm lucky - I sneeze, my eyes itch and I get headaches spring and fall - but nothing too bad.

Unusually and exceedingly peculiar and altogether quite impossible to describe

I am so full of allergy meds that if Dracula bit me, all the Benadryl in my bloodstream would put him right to sleep.

That's an interesting defense against vampires

Benadryl, lots of garlic, holy items ... one more defense against the dark forces.

Thrive to spite them

I did finally get an email response of -I can't get ahold of the neurologist to find out how to correct the scheduling issue/return to work date. Which is something.

I dunno at this point I'm back to I should have hired a lawyer because this is too much, maybe I should because this is too much.

It's a lot. It shouldn't be that hard.

Aw, that's sweet, -t (the plate of food, not the allergies. Sorry, allergy people. That sucks.)

I just deleted an overshare. You're all welcome.
