We won’t stop until everyone is gay.

Hi Nora! Please wish Tom a happy birthday from me.

Waves from hellscape next door. We finally have a bit of a break from the heat dome and have been getting some much needed rain, but I’m still not turning on the hot water in the shower. And there’s a burn ban statewide that includes outdoor cooking.

Yikes, peeps. Stay cool. And HBD to TomW.

Good first day to Matilda. All kinds of pulling for her.

Waiting for DH to get back so I can hit the library to work. Home is so distracting these days. Or, I am so distractible? Either way, the library is better.

Ha! Have you ever responded to a comment somewhere thinking you were responding to a buffista, then realizing you were mistaken? I have a friend with a similar name to Fay. Is AIFG universal? I guess I'll find out...

I think it's a private joke, but that doesn't mean nobody else could find it funny. Also, good wishes for Hec and Matilda.

Unusually and exceedingly peculiar and altogether quite impossible to describe

I've told a friend before (unintentionally) that the lurkers support them in email.

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

Timelies all!

Happy birthday flea and TomW!

Ugh, I’m so tired of this hotel. Due to various miscommunications and/or bad communications, no work has been done on the house in about two weeks. The next thing is for the asbestos mitigation team to start working on the tile floors, but because of said issues, they won’t be able to start work until next week. Bleah.

The artist formerly associated with cupcakes.

Is it a universal truth that HR departments (excuse me, PeopleOps) must make promotion document templates as incomprehensible and uneditable as possible? JUST LET ME PROMOTE MY KICKASS WRITER, EVERYONE AGREES SHE SHOULD BE.

People? I'm great at managing people. Meetings? I'm great at running those. Dealing with fiddly paperwork? Or PowerPoint? Please no.

(I can do it, I just hate it.)

feeling you on not liking to put the dots in, like the commander likes "The Wire" for bullet points, subsequently adapted by me to include any fiddly phase of paperwork, especially the ass-covering ones It's funny that McNulty is a pain in the ass, loose cannon, but also the best typist and report writer; most shows would split those two roles with separate characters.

Atropa, ltc declared herself the queen of Halloween tonight. I told her she might have to fight you for the title.

I don't know...maybe there are age and weight classes. Maybe she could be a junior bantamweight.
