I am not...I am not the damsel in distress. I am not some case. I have to work this. I've lived in a cave for 5 years in a world where they killed my kind like cattle. I am not going to be cut down by some monster flu. I am better than that. What a wonder...how very scared I am.

Karma is a cat, sleeping in my lap cuz it loves me. ~TS

polgara, email me your sister's address again, thanks.

Assuming I still have the right number for you, I just texted it. (Was easier with cat on top of me.)

The feeling you get when your brain finally lets your heart get in its pants.

Dita made herself known! We are now hiding in the bathroom. I'm glad I didn't completely lose my shit because she totally did.

Cats to become a rabbit should gather immediately now here

I am actually realizing through this conversation that "B" would probably not be in the running if she didn't work for the research department.

Every time I have tried to go logical, it has backfired-- my job isn't really very fun, and I am the only person and they are the only student worker. Whereas in research, the work can be more fun, and even if it is boring work, there are always 5 or 6 people working in a big room and they talk and have fun.

Because books.

Phew! I'm just catching up now that I can see again. I'm glad you found Dita, Lee. Can you put her in a carrier until everything's settled down?

All sorrows can be borne if you put them into a story. Tell me a story.

Lee, the cat's hiding hole that took me weeks to find was inside a swivel rocker. There was a hole in the bottom of the chair.

Oh, good! (That you found her and that you didn't lose your shit...)

I'm not sure I could get her into a carrier right now without physical damAge to one or both of us. The plan is to go help/ watch the movers unload and then come back for her. Hopefully by then she will be calmer

That's a good plan, Lee.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

That sounds good.

The plan is to go help/ watch the movers unload and then come back for her.

Also that.

I am actually realizing through this conversation that "B" would probably not be in the running if she didn't work for the research department.

Then definitely don't hire B. You can reconsider for the summer, if she doesn't get something else, anyway, right?
