Well, no, of course not. It had to be left behind.
I fell down and got confused. Willow fixed me. She's gay.

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
Sighh.... I read "large hard-on collider" and was briefly a 12 year old boy.

Happy birthday, Aurelia!
I’m glad you dodged the ax, Jessica. 14k layoffs is nuts.

All sorrows can be borne if you put them into a story. Tell me a story.
Thanks for the birthday wishes! I'm in the midst of A Christmas Carol load-in, so I'm keeping things low key this evening. Take-out sushi and finishing S2 of Slow Horses.
(I have a bunch of wishes for your city too, but you know about those)
And this is much appreciated. I haven't been teargassed yet, but there has been activity within a few blocks. I carry my whistle.

I hate that I love working east coast hours. It’s so much nicer than my usual schedule, where I wake up and immediately have meetings and am frantic to catch up on emails. But I can’t do it from home (would require getting up and going to bed hella early). But when I’m out on the east coast? So nice. Wake up at a reasonable hour, when the sun is up, sit down to computer, catch up on stuff, and THEN have meetings about stuff…

Thrive to spite them
I am back to work today. I was running a little late. I had changed my alarm to go off when I normally take my meds in the morning (which is after I wake up) and turned off the other alarms for vacation. Then forgot to reset them so I was eating breakfast and realized...oh ! Oh I should be walking out the door in 5 mins. And I still needed to shower etc.
It's been busy . But I feel a lot better than I have. Even the co worker who usually annoys me the most wasn't bothering me. I'm hoping this lasts for awhile

I voted during my lunch break today!
Also, my boss's boss just emailed us, after getting some clarification about an issue he was harping us about, and said, “Looks like there was some confusion...” Yeah, nice use of the passive voice there.

Jessica that's so cool about the musical. The resident sound engineer at that theatre is a friend and former student of mine!
