Ok, then, Tep. (adds "wedding planner" to resume.)
I'll nurse you back to health. I'll wear the nurse outfit!

"Look, son, if it's good enough for Shirley Bassey, it's good enough for you."
And I totally appreciate her help, but Monday morning after the time change when blowing my nose is an exercise in gore is NOT the best time to hit me with a spreadsheet's worth of questions. I have a job, AND SO DOES SHE.
Cut and paste: "Hey mom, I'm slammed at work and bleeding to death, so I won't be able to get on this for a couple days. Right after I murder my co-worker and stab my boss in the face with a spork. Cheers ever so, your delightful daughter."

I have a boss who recently was apparently peeved enough to go to everyone's managers because she wasn't getting enough emails. Apparently she wanted "thanks!" And "I'll get right on that!" Etc.

I am a woman of various inclinations and only some of the time are they to burn everything down in frustration
Aw, Tep, I'm sorry for the stress. Here's a good thing for you - my azaleas and mystery tree are starting to bloom. Pretty pink and purple flowers!

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.
Here's some good news for Teppy and everyone else:

Bob's learned to live with tragedy, but he knows that this tragedy is one that won't ever leave him or get better.
Three earthquakes and I felt none of them. I was in yoga. I think I am very bad at the meditation part if I didn't notice three earthquakes. Or the 29 Palms Inn is very seismically awesome and didn't shake. Because no one mentioned them. [link] Not huge but right around 5 is something I like to think I'd at least notice.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
For some reason I keep getting spammed by Ultimate Software, and I email them to tell them to stop (I managed to find a name of a person) and then six months later I get spam again, and I email poor TC again.
Today was one of those days. People might not be jerks, but there should be a good explanation for why they keep slipping up here (remove me entirely from your system!) and that would let Sales get back to willing subjects.
I also got spammed at my personal address by an aunt of mine who either is spamming or got hacked. It's depressingly hard to tell.

this mess was yours / now your mess is mine
Co-worker brought in bourbon fudge. Seriously, when you open the box, it's like walking into a bar. Booziest fudge EVER.
The day is starting to look up.
Until I pass out.
