Happy birthday, Dana!

Greece's financial crisis threatens to take down all of Western civilization - a civilization they themselves founded. A rather tragic irony - which is something they also invented. - Jon Stewart

Happy Birthday, Dana!

Happy birthday Dana!

Woohoo I got a promotion!! It’s just a title change, my job doesn’t actually change, but it was overdue and I was getting salty about it, but I’d heard that due to the economy they might not be doing promotions this year. So I applied for a few jobs earlier this week…and lo and behold suddenly my boss tells me! Yay. It’s a 4% raise but mostly I was mad about the title rather than the $$ (though more $$ is never bad!)

this mess was yours / now your mess is mine

Happy Birthday, Dana!

And way to go, meara!

Our wings are not tired.

Awesome, meara! Well-deserved recognition.

Congrats, meara! Always nice to get acknowledgment that you've been doing the job already

"Look, son, if it's good enough for Shirley Bassey, it's good enough for you."

Woohoo I got a promotion!!

Right the fuck on! Well done.

Happy birthday, Dana!

On the downside my wasp-stung foot still hurts a little.

On the plus side, Scola arrives today.

So we will probably be seeing The Phoenician Scheme tomorrow.

Always Anti-fascist!

Wish me luck, cable and television upgrades in my future. and we'll have wifi, which I don't have to hold back since my brother doesn't have his side business to move here, which was my first "Absolutely not!" in about twenty years. For all those posts from the bathroom I can't even make, but whatever.(Not telling the state we haz...I'd rather they squirm, too. ) might be exciting one day, but kind of a stressy thought atm.(I just have no instinct for these things, like, ever--leads to kind of a phobic response.) also, kind of tired of other people deciding what they can accept on my behalf. But at least my attendants are gonna help me out with it.(Don't really like the subconscious feeling that they think all I get from life is sitting around watching stuff, but he's antivax, so why does his judgment matter again?!)

Happy birthday, Dana. Happy Scola day, San Francisco. Good news on the promotion, Meara. Yesterday's calls were so quiet it was like doing nothing.Except for the dialling and that it took longer-- I'm so not going to feature in the movement biopic.)
