There are rumblings that a reorg may happen and my team would be moved from where we currently report into to an org that actually understands what we do. I have never prayed for a reorg, but please god, let these rumblings be true.

My ONLY (mild) concern about this possibility is my current boss asking me if I wasn't a manager, what would I want to do. I don't want to go back to being a writer, so I told her that if for some reason I was no longer a manager, I want a site publishing/architect role, which is something the tech writing team desperately needs.

I still want to manage my team, but if I have to give that up in order to get us out of our currently dysfunctional org, I'll do it.

What I really want is some sort of unknown distant relative to leave me a fortune in their will. And a manor house. And to make me a vampire, while I'm wishing for unattainable things.

I am a woman of various inclinations and only some of the time are they to burn everything down in frustration

Your standard wish, then

But good luck with the re-org meanwhile!

So come, my friends, be not afraid/We are so lightly here/It is in love that we are made; In love we disappear

Same. Except the vampire part. Probably.

Me three, Plei. No the vampirism, yes to the rest.

Days shrink and grow cold, sunlight through leaves is my song. Winter is long.

No vampirism here either, thanks. But I've always said no to biofamily search. They made those choices and I respect them. The only way I'd agree is to meeting the family lawyer with previously unknown great-uncle Ralph's will in which I am the main benefactor.

Bob's learned to live with tragedy, but he knows that this tragedy is one that won't ever leave him or get better.

Same. Except the vampire part. Probably.

It's got some opportunities but I'd also likely end up stress eating. Which only sucks for them. And me if I still have a conscience.

I spend too much time static and brooding as a human, becoming a vampire does not seem like a smart move for me.

And then Ortus came and said "It's Ortin' time" and they all Orted off into the sunset

I'll take vampirism, but only if I get to be Darla in late S2.

I haven't trusted science since I saw the film "Flubber."

Headed home after spending all week back at my office for a very successful event that I helped organize. When I checked in yesterday, American offered me a first-class upgrade for not too much money, and I took it. Looking forward to relaxing for 3.5 hours separated from all the economy class losers.
