Do not mess with animal bites. Please. And while prophylactic rabies shots ache, they let you not die of an incurable fatal disease.
I am trying to complete my year end review. Not sure how to say “give me my fucking promotion or I quit” in polite terms.
"I feel I have exceeded my potential in my current role, and am ready for more responsibilities and challenges."
I just want more money. It’s not in the budget but I’m worth twice what I get paid. And they could get me at least a 25% raise if they fought and looked at my history.
Timelies all!
I'm tired and cranky and Mr. S is being extra annoying right now. bleah
Man, if I wanted real job security I should have trained in COBOL instead of Fortran and C.
Fuck.
Emmett just called. His roommate's girlfriend woke up sick. He was going to drive down today, but now they're sitting tight while they see if she can get tested today. They were definitely exposed to her. We just don't know what kind of sick she is.
We might be driving up to Sonoma to leave Thanksgiving on their doorstep tomorrow.
We'll, that sucks. Negative test ~ma to her.
Atropa - so skilled! I'm not at all surprised, but it's still a thing of beauty to behold.
I made my first ever pie crust. I've cobbled together basic graham cracker things before, and I've made dough for empanadas, which is kind of similar, but this is my first honest goodness, pie will go in it crust. I mean, it's gluten free, so who knows, but it looks and acts how I would expect it to. I'm 53, and just got my very first very own pie pan today.
Fingers crossed, David. You too, Steph.
I'm so sorry David. I hope the call comes soon and gives you the all clear.

along with the appropriate salary increase," of course.
FIL-ma, Steph.
I have that book, Toddson. It's a good book--well, I liked it. Also, Zoo Vet, Among the Elephants, Red Man of the Forest (orangs), and the Jackals, Hyenas, and Cape Wild Dogs book, Innocent Killers, by Jane Goodall and her husband at the time, Hugo van Lawick, and dozens more. I've been intrigued with animal behavior all my life. By me, Goodall had the perfect job.
Negative test~ma for Steph’s FiL and Emmet’s roommate’s GF.
In far less dire news, I curdled the curd in one of the cranberry curd pies I’m making. Luckily it’s not the one for Amyth and her buds, but it is the one I was planning on distance sharing with others tomorrow. WtF, eggs? I tempered you like whoa. Why you gotta get feisty on me?
Test~ma for Buffista Auxillaries.
I am now taking my last moment before the next 24 hours of cooking. Here we go....
We'll, that sucks. Negative test ~ma to her.
Thanks. Btw, JenP, I made the Reddit Apple Cream pie!
