"Faded like the lilac, he thought."

Well, the Tom Hardy in my dream was mustachioed, so maybe yes! He was also wearing a scarf; you T-Hard girls know which pictures my subconscious was referencing. Although my dream antagonist was rather modernly beweaponed for Tess' era.

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.

I'm terrifically busy with my ennui.

Doctor's appointment at 12. I suspect he will tell me there's nothing to be done.

We won’t stop until everyone is gay.

Ah, gotcha. I was actually born in Durham while my dad got his PhD there, but my dad doesn't give a hoot about college (or professional) sports so we never had any allegiances growing up.

Are you still sick, Dana? Can you keep anything down?

If you're going through hell/keep on going/don't slow down/keep your fear from showing/you might be gone/'fore the devil even knows you're there

Update from yesterday's drama.

After spending most of the morning closeted with the HR person, we did manage to step things back from the ledge a bit. Still, a brutal conversation to have, and while K is going on a "Performance Improvement Plan" next week, I don't know that anything has really been resolved. She was shocked and hurt and a bit defensive, not entirely without reason. I just don't know how this all resolves.

Everything around here is so political anymore, and I'm trying to walk a very fine line of doing right by her, fixing the problem, preserving my own credibility and, hopefully, keeping a good friend. And, you know, doing my day job. Oof.

Sounds very tricky. Good luck, brenda!
