I'm trying very hard not to shout "Why do I have to do everything?!" at work right now. I'm particularly aggravated by a project that I keep getting assigned even though I'm spectacularly unsuited for it.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
Oh, okay. One of the main teasing co-workers came by to cheer me up. My phone is still broken, but I'm not feeling as stabbity, and maybe ninety minutes from now I can have my collapse.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
I got half right on the Newt v. Schrute quiz.
Job interview 2/3 down! Next third in 45 minutes. Am eating dinner. Also in the meantime, I got a not-great call from my mother and got attacked by my cat, so that's great.

Nova is being even more needy than usual.(Meowing more often, in my lap much more frequently, etc,)

See? I gave everybody here an opportunity to tell me what a bad person I am and nobody did, because I fuckin' rule.
Holy crap! We got a federal refund! Usually it's eaten up by student loan payments, but for some reason this time the Feds just nodded and handed over the whole amount. More than what CA withheld, enough more that, knock wood, we're gonna have a working car again. I am totally shifting my Brave Little Toaster dance into a Snoopy dance.

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.
Yay federal refund.
ION, I am at work, waiting for my iPod to finish syncing so I can go home. Something's wrong with this picture....

"Look, son, if it's good enough for Shirley Bassey, it's good enough for you."
That's great, JZ!
It is. We were feeling particularly snakebit after losing the State refund to random 26 year old tickets because that was the third time in the last couple years where an expected windfall didn't come through.
JZ tried to cash in some stock certificates, but the company got sold and resold and resold again and the last company wouldn't honor them.
And we got a notice from Honda that our expensive previous fix was part of a recall and we could get our money back. Then they changed their mind.
And then the State taxes fiasco.
The especially weird part is that we didn't expect to get the Federal return since they've been garnishing my returns for years to pay off my school loans. So I went to check our balance in the ATM and there was a lot more money in there than we had expected.
This also means that I've paid off those old tickets and my college loan.
The important thing though is that Emmett won't have to get up at 5:30am now. He'll get to sleep blissfully all the way to 6:30am.
