When did I become a person who keeps multiple bottles of sparkling wine in the refrigerator?
Because you're turning into me? And I'm turning into Auntie Mame?

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
Guess who's adorable? DJ is! Y'all are jealous.
It's true!
Aside from not buying actual food, my trip to TJ's was great -- not crowded, and I saw my friend who works there, and got to go into a staff area! So that was exciting for me....

I have eaten dinner. I have laundry in the dryer. I still need to pack, play Christmas present Tetris in my luggage, and write like the wind and JESUS CHRIST IT'S A LION GET IN THE CAR.

See? I gave everybody here an opportunity to tell me what a bad person I am and nobody did, because I fuckin' rule.
Dear God, I'm beat. I've been working like a dog, or possibly four or five, since the second I walked into the office this morning, and didn't stop until 5:10 PM, due to my soon-to-be-ex-boss going into a high-grade panic over my impending departure. I'm loaded down with urgent projects for tomorrow, plus I have to clean out my desk and move everything to the new desk upstairs, and also take a grim cake break at midday to wish farewell to one of the laid-off people. And the person I'm handing this boss off to is bitter and surly and probably going to quit. Please, please, please let them not try to get me back in there once she's left.
On the upside, after the holidays I'll be up in a little corner office far, far away from the badness. And on the very upside, it turns out that Rage Nurse has to go over to the new clinic, halfway across the city, tomorrow afternoon, so I only have FOUR MORE HOURS with her for the entire rest of my life.
I wish I had a fridge full of sparkling wine, because I have a sudden crazy desire to bathe in it.

Good luck getting through the day, JZ! Because after that? BETTER.

JZ, it's one more (interminable) day and then it's DONE!
ita, I don't think I can make tomorrow, but I'll know closer to tomorrow. It's contingent on weather and Grace. Grace seems pretty happy, but she's not vocalizing as much as she usually does. Dear god, what if they fucked up her vocal cords? Or maybe it is just painful.
Shit.
I hadn't thought about that until now.
