Yay! Delighted for your friend, JenP.
Anya Christina Emmanuella Jenkins. Twenty years old. Born on the fourth of July — and don't think there weren't jokes about that my whole life, mister, 'cause there were. 'Who's our little patriot?' they'd say, when I was younger and therefore smaller and shorter than I am now.

If I want to become a cloud of bats, does each bat need a separate vaccination?
I spent over 4 hours and almost $400 today to get….a shitty uneven dye job
This is why I do my own haircolor. (I have a stylist I trust completely and who I'm sure would do a great job, but...a box of Colorista bleach + tube of dye from Sally's is less than $30. Even if the salon dye job looks great, it's not going to look 10x as great.)

Best of luck next week, sumi!
Yay! about the great news, Pix!

Yeah, sadly that’s where I’m at Jessica—I figured I was going pink so getting the bleach job right would be key, and I should’ve just trusted myself. So annoyed at the $$ much more than the actual result.

I am a woman of various inclinations and only some of the time are they to burn everything down in frustration
meara, I meant to say, that is such a bummer. Professionally done hair should make you feel fabulous and awesome! I bet you do look cute, though.
I am in the office and I can't gt my laptop+dock to talk to my monitor and keyboard so I am awkwardly typing on my laptop while leaning away from the stand up desk so the keyboard doesn't hit me in the face. Far from ergonomically sound. The one other person who is in the office this morning tried to help me but the simple solutions we could come up with were probably necessary but not sufficient...

Note to self, keep the talking to yourself more inside your head while in the office

Someone tell me to work.

Dana! Get your butt in gear! There is work to be done!

Eh, it’s Friday Dana. Surely work is not that important? (I too am having a hard time buckling down—I have multiple things I need to be doing but they’re all big complex things that aren’t due like, today, so…)
t, definitely keep the talking inside the head. But good luck with the ergonomics

Punishingly Intricate
I clearly have no problem telling adults what to do!
So, everyone, GET YOUR VACCINES!!! The life you save may be your own (or, somebody who legit can't get a vaccine rather than just doesn't want to).
I'm sorry about your husband's worrisome health issues, Laura. So much more complicated than getting a shot. I hope a multi-pronged approach of you, other loved ones, his doctor, and his personal motivation can help him get to a better place.
