I am a little *issy that *ublic schools closed for the whole day.
Yeah, they could have let out early. That shouldn't be that difficult to coordinate.
Harken: You fought with Captain Reynolds in the war? Zoe: Fought with a lot of people in the war. Harken: And your husband? Zoe: Fight with him sometimes, too.

I must obey the inscrutable exhortations of my soul—Calvin and Hobbs
I like Burrell's asshat author theory.
I never know what to bring to a potluck. I am paralyzed with indecision.
I usually bring apple pie if I'm on desserts or wild rice salad [link] if I'm on sides.

I'm terrifically busy with my ennui.
I often try to bring something vegetarian or vegan. That wild rice salad looks really good. I like this too: [link]

My go-to party/potluck contribution is semi-homemade spinach dip in a bread bowl.

Though it occurs to me that potlucks in San Francisco might not suffer from the problem of not enough vegetarian food.

I am a woman of various inclinations and only some of the time are they to burn everything down in frustration
I never know what to bring to a potluck.
Yeah, that's super hard. I like when there's a theme or guideline of some sort, otherwise it's just - make whatever I would eat if I was home but enough for a group? IDK
"this information is not needed."
That's "I would prefer not to" in disguise, yes?
flea's *'s make her posts look cryptic and mysterious. It's kind of great.
Management wants feedback on how last year went, what changes we'd like to see, etc. Which is good, I guess, that they care, but it's like every level of management is separately asking open-ended questions and I've already forgotten most of 2015.

Every now and then, I think I might actually be a little odd.
"I would prefer not to" seems to be my motto for today. I'm getting nothing done.

Basically, yeah. My boss replied and said to go ahead with all of her ridiculous asshattery (I'm paraphrasing), and to document it thoroughly, including a note that the author is exceedingly picky (that apparently is code for "whiny entitled jerkface"). And then she said, like with my other problem author earlier in the week, the managing editor may lay the smackdown hard when she reviews it. And I would pay money to see that happen.
