You know what I hate? When I procrastinate and put something off and stress myself out about getting it done for days and then I finally suck it up and sit down and do it and it takes me goddamn 20 minutes.
Apparently, I am Brenda. I am in fact, being Brenda RIGHT NOW

Serpentine, Shel. Serpentine.
I should probably never see that movie again, because it probably wouldn't match the glory of memory.

I love it, but haven't seen it in ages. After seeing it like six times, though.

For the first time ever in my work life, I have a name plate that has my name printed on something more substantial than card stock. An actual hard plastic, in a snazzy frame, printed in a way that doesn't look like it came through a Xerox machine name plate. Sure, it's hanging outside my cubicle, but damn. I feel positively loved. But I think I should avoid hugging the thing where my supervisor can see it. I'll wait till he leaves.

I know my own heart and understand my fellow man. But I am made unlike anyone I have ever met. I dare to say I am like no one in the whole world. - Anne Lister
Brenda, I do that ALL THE TIME! Why do we not learn?
ION, I was my own Food Fairy! Went to Noah's Bagels and got my everything bagel and iced coffee (plus side of fruit). Nom nom nom.

Is IFG?
I got to spend much of today messing around with video footage for a work event. The hours fly by when I'm doing that. Then I came back to my desk to see an email with my official Greece trip itinerary in it. Yay!

"Faded like the lilac, he thought."
Yeah, seriously. I am brenda and meara and Glamcookie big time on this.
The office reorg was just the extension of this. It's been in bad shape for pretty much a year. And it took me two days to get it completely ordered. Two days!
I still have lots of the rough work of going through files and dealing with the papers I've turned up. But I have no doubt I'll be fully ready for the school year even with mini-vacation.
It drives me crazy that I do this with procrastination.

I have gone shopping for yummy, delicious Trader Joe's food. More surprising still? I did not buy a single item of meat.
Yes, Date Girl is vegetarian, why do you ask?

Sometimes I think I might just move up to Vermont, open a bookstore or a vegan restaurant. Adam Schlesinger, z''l
I'm trying to figure out if Rosemary Kennedy went to school. I can find on the internet the names of the boarding schools where all her siblings went, but the most that I can find about her education is that her father hired some tutors to help her learn how to read and write, but nothing about anything between about age 9 and age 20 or so.
I think I need to find a book about them, rather than trying to find out little details like this from the internet.
t edit: found it. Combination of tutors and special schools.
