I'm terrifically busy with my ennui.

I just hit myself in the head with the TV remote.

I think it's time to leave the house for a bit.

Dana...have you been drinking?

My left forearm is bugging the heck out of me. I must have twinged something when I was working with my fans today.

Nah, just too much time on the couch, I think.

Well, I had a good day. I just decided to cut out the most difficult part of a big project, and with it gone we'll have a much easier time meeting our deadlines and keeping under budget.

Yay for me.

You can cut out something hard and no one complains. Cool. I should see if I could apply that to my current work frustration.

Harking back to last night, I'm still in Mama Bear mode, but not quite as fierce. Why are some boys so stupid (not CJ in this case)?

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

I ended up telling the story of the stupid vendor to a co-worker who was working from home, and laughed myself into tears again. I'm still agog.

Well, we agreed to a big demolition project, but part of it is just physically tricky--hard to access, with a lot of environmental problems associated with it. And I realized that if we don't do that piece, we still accomplish the needs of the project, but we lose the trickiest planning problems and save money as well.

Damnit. I think I might have to go to the doctor tomorrow.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

Ugh, Dana! If you're still sick, at least call a nurse line?

I did. The result was a lot of "this is not official medical advice" but if your symptoms aren't better by tomorrow, you might want to call the doctor.
