Best of luck askye.
You guys had a riot? On account of me? A real riot?

All good vibes your way, askye.

Greece's financial crisis threatens to take down all of Western civilization - a civilization they themselves founded. A rather tragic irony - which is something they also invented. - Jon Stewart
askye - have you considered going back to legal?
(It’s a decision I’m making myself at the moment.)

Thrive to spite them
Trudy, I never really did anything with that, well I did a little but it was a long time ago. Right now with the issues I've had concentration since the accident I want to stay with something more low key. At least right now but it's something to think about for the future.

That makes a lot of sense!

I know I need to work on my resume, even what I have on Indeed but I did update and then just applied for a job I don't really want so now that hurdle of "oh crap I have to start applying" is kind of out of the way.

Bully for you, askye! Sometimes you just gotta shake the dust off your feet and move on.
I had a nice weekend: did some cooking (made a batch of beans and a rhubarb quick bread), went for a walk with my niece and wandered SF with an old fandom friend, and yesterday went for a mountain bike ride with my sister. Don't love being back at work, but it was a reasonably quiet day, and my hiring process is progressing reasonably well: I hope to have 3 (three!) new staff members on board by Labor Day.
My sister is trying to get me to start playing pickleball with her, but I am not retired and I'm not that interested in taking up a new sport. I am still running, climbing, and biking, and that seems like enough at the moment.

Wow that’s a lot of new employees Consuela!
I do not want to go back to work tomorrow but it’ll probably be good for me. I am stressed because I am not ready for Pride this weekend AND I am not ready for my trip in LESS THAN A MONTH—I don’t have a place to stay several places (one I had booked but they canceled on me, so now I have to find a new one)

Our wings are not tired.
Today is a most Epic day in history as it is the day that EpicTangent was born. Happy Birthday, Epic! I do hope that this year brings you vastly improved health. It has been such a struggle, but you have shown incredible patience and determination through the process. I hope you are being spoiled today.
