You know, with the exception of one deadly and unpredictable midget, this girl is the smallest cargo I've ever had to transport. Yet by far the most troublesome. Does that seem right to you?

That's some nice enabling there, Aims! I really truly want the jacket. The sweaters are cute, but I could possibly maybe live without them. The jacket, however, I think I must have.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

Bomb threat in the Westwood area. Conveniently on a day when I walked to lunch with a friend with a bad knee in heels--and she had to detour all sorts of ways to get back to her building, poor thing.

What is it with bombthreats? There was one yesterday at a school near westwood.

After following links off the NYT piece that Ginger posted I want a cupcake and I want one NOW.

I have a coffee cake muffin.

Which is a cupcake.

I used to eat one of these between breakfast and lunch. I'm still picking on this morning's one.

Placed the order. I hope the sizes work - I don't usually buy tops or jackets online because I'm not a solid size fit. I went with the higher size since this is designer wear and I'm assuming the fit will be more snug.

I think I definitely need a quick nap before heading out for the play tonight, because suddenly I have woozy exhaustion cancer.

Punishingly Intricate

Placed the order.

I love the stars sweater!!! of course!!!

I was looking on bluefly the other day to see if I could find ideas for dresses I might like (per ita's suggestion) and there wasn't a single one that I thought would look good on me! so depressing!

Nothing like knowing there's a bomb threat outside and hearing sirens go off.

Sorry about that, lisah. No ideas at all?

"This bar smells like kerosene and stripper tears."

They'd say they wanted a receptionist, but they really wanted an assistant. I would rat them right out to the agency. There would usually be some BS about how the person who placed the order didn't really know what was required . . .

A lot of people, too many really, don't know the difference. Hearing someone call me "the receptionist" makes me LIV-ID. Yes, I do answer the phones like a mad woman and make sure when people know their appointments are here, but I also prepare files, do grant research, outreach, fundraising, shipping and receiving, some tech support. I coordinate schedules. I set up voicemails and conference calls. I am the keeper of every password in my region. I pull off multiple region-wide events and create nearly every presentation an piece of literature that comes out of this place.

I. Am. A. Fucking. Assistant.
