That sounds like a hot mess, meara! Yikes!
That sounds wonderful, Steph! Back yard in time for summer hammock swaying.

Fandom means never having to say "But where would I wear that?"
Timelies all!
I've still got one more day of work this week, and I'm not going to be leaving early, given the tasks I will have to do. Gary is taking the day off, and Mr. S doesn't have school, so I'm the only one who has to get up early tomorrow.

I am a woman of various inclinations and only some of the time are they to burn everything down in frustration
I'm hoping I will be able to stop working early tomorrow, we'll see. I keep thinking that I will do stuff and be productive on my own behalf after work since there are hours of daylight I could use when I finish up but I'm generally so tired that I just want to collapse, so getting off early wouldn't do me much good if it just means collapsing earlier...

Just getting back from lunch with my friend Lauren, who I haven't seen since my wedding with JZ 17 years ago!
She used to live in my neighborhood and since she freelanced, and I temped and had periodic weekdays off, I could always just call her up and get together for coffee without any planning. And it was so nice. Proximity matters.
But it was just as easy and fun to talk with her as it's always been, plus an added layer of affection. Hung out for three hours and it flew by like nothing.

17 years ago! I cannot believe it.
The new gig is kind of stressful, and I guess it shows: my boss stopped by my office on Tuesday and asked, very nicely, "Are you okay? You seem stressed."
Which -- I liked my old boss, but he is an odd duck, and it's been a long time since I had a direct supervisor who actually asked that sort of thing. So that was nice.

Today is the day we celebrate the birth of Gudanov! We are so grateful for you. I sincerely hope that this is a rewarding year. May the stresses of recent years dissipate.
Also birthday wishes for Sean K. He doesn't venture in here often, but often in my thoughts. Updates from him on FB of late have been joyful and for that I am delighted.
Sorry about the stress, Consuela, but helpful to have an understanding boss.

Happy birthdays!
Yesterday I found out that my boss, when he was 18, got cited for drag racing with Mike Tyson. Which is extremely random and yet entirely surprising.
ETA : unsurprising! That should say unsurprising.
