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

Oofdah, EM came over this morning and we spent 3.5 doing a deep clean, primarily in my bedroom.

So everything got hauled out from under the bed, there was much dusting and vacuuming and culling of closets and putting JZ's stuff into storage and discarding some of my stuff, and making closet space and like that.

Did the dishes and the laundry too, and wound up carrying four bags down to her car for Goodwill dropoff.

I am a tired sweaty sweatball.

I remember the crazy days. 500 posts an hour. Nubmer! Natgbsb

People are being wrong at work and it is kinda driving me crazy.

Manage people and stop rewarding bad workers by lessening their load.

People being wrong at work is worse than people being wrong on the internet!

Always Anti-fascist!

Four bags is a lot. We do it more frequently because it's too hard to take more than two.(Also, there's no storage in here...it's awful, in a diamond-shoe problem sort of way--it's less diamond-shoe when you factor in how few spots I can actually reach, though.)

Writing group yesterday was fine--I didn't meet the whole group yet, but I kind of don't think there will be any Rayanne Graff types in it. (Can't decide which is sadder, that that's true or that I'm nearly fifty-two and only had, like half a wing-woman, cumulatively, in my own so-called life. And I still need one, I think.) But the group might still be good practice.

Rewatching MSCL because it was JZ's favorite, and there is a lot that I'd forgotten, anyway because I only watched it once, probably at her vehement urging. I'm sorry that writing about people doesn't seem like enough anymore in many places.

--t, it's a little harder to tell the people at work to shut their pieholes without consequences, I'll tell ya what.

I'm terrifically busy with my ennui.

Waiting for a Hamilton showing, and no one else is here. I'm gonna sing for the next three hours.

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

She is!

I mean, I do pay her for her work and time, but she helps me immensely whether it's housecleaning or paperwork.
