"Puny editor, don't you know who I am? I'm an author who got an article accepted by the AMA! I'm obviously a great writer!"

"Stupid writer, don't you know who I am? I'm an editor who passes judgement on the authors who get accepted by the AMA! Shut your pie hole and give me what I want!"

This year I'm not going to bitch about you people bogarting our snow. We're not out of the drought danger zone, but our snowpack is over 100% for the year and we're getting snow a couple of times a week.

This reminds me of when my sister was at Legal Seafood in Boston, waiting for a table, and some guy started getting huffy and raised his voice to say, "DO YOU KNOW WHO I AM?" (wait for it) "I AM THE PRESIDENT OF THE AMERICAN DENTAL ASSOCIATION." Awesome.

If he said that to me, I would have laughed, given him two thumbs-up and said, "Awesome!"

Webex for something that 90% does not apply to me. Awesome.

Man, Mercury is always in retrograde.

I think raaaage might require complex carbs and electrolytes.

Weird, Dana.

I think raaaage might require complex carbs and electrolytes.

I was shaking, and carbs make me kind of zippy and weird. Protein chills me out. Though a banana is a carb. I guess the banana is mitigated by the cottage cheese.

I've had cottage cheese and a banana. I am un-Hulking.

Need to go to the library and pick up the first TPB of Squirrel Girl and the DVD of What We Do in the Darkness. And then exercise.

Steph, authors like that just piss me off. Whiny entitled brats. I had one guy try to explain to me how to use parentheses. He was wrong too.

On your other topic, it always amuses/annoys me that of all the things my family could truly worry about in regards to my well-being, all they focus on is my weight. High blood pressure? Blame it on the weight. Asthma? Fat. Depression? You'd feel so much better if you lost the weight! Autoimmune system disorder causing me to lose almost all the hair on my body? Hey, it's cool you don't have to shave anymore! NO IT REALLY ISN'T. This is the same disease, manifesting slightly differently, that slowly killed my mother, but it's much easier to focus on the thing that's obvious (oh and also doesn't affect anyone else in the family so it's not scary for them, is it?) Fuck. Never mind that I had asthma and depression when I was thin, too.

Sorry, I'm in a bad mood all of a sudden.

"I AM THE PRESIDENT OF THE AMERICAN DENTAL ASSOCIATION."

I saw my XBIL pull the same crap with I'm the President of the American Institute of Physics! once. What a tool.

Now all of a sudden I'm sad that we're not going to get significant snow here. I think maybe because 6" is my least favorite amount of snow here -- enough that you have to actually shovel and it's a pain in the ass, not enough to keep anyone from doing anything.

psst. 6" is enough to stop the world from turning, if you live here.
