Chris Christie: LOSER.
I have the requisite GIF from Hamilton running through my head here.
Easy Bake. Flop-a-palooza. Woosh. Pop. I don't skulk.

this mess was yours / now your mess is mine

Wow, I think that would mess with me real bad.
There are also intermittent three-quarters height freestanding walls, because remarkably, human beings need to divide space into smaller, workable units, and those walls are starting to wobble if you lean or bump into them.
And the reactionarily rectangular cubical set up divides this style-forward space up into awkward leftover areas that can't have anything done with them. Dead chairs tend to accumulate there.
I love architecture. I love creativity in architecture. But function comes first (I'm looking at you, Le Courbusier!)

See, if your office space is basically a warehouse the cubicles fit very nicely. We're very symmetric. Lacking in windows, but symmetric.

Oh, I love the windows. I'll cut anyone who tries to take my windows away.

Speaking of windows, I can almost see the freeway! No signs of eldritch monsters who may have previously inhabited the fog, but they could be hiding. In some nook in my office building.

Our wings are not tired
As some of you know my mother has been in very poor health for a very long time, for years actually. She's been on home hospice since summer, and it looks like she's finally hitting the end. I talked to my sister last night and all of her meds have been discontinued and she's on morphine to make her comfortable. The expectation is that she'll be gone in the next week or so.
I'm sad, but this has been a long drawn out time, and the reality is I've been mourning the loss of her for years now, even while she's still physically been here.
I'm going down to see her one last time on Thursday. From what my sister described she's just resting peacefully so I'm not planning to stay.
My emotions are very conflicted right now.

My mom just emailed me to tell me my Aunt Carolyn and Uncle Ken were in a car accident. Ken didn't make it. Carolyn will be in the hospital for a while.
Fuck this.

Why did Darth Vader cross the road? To get to the Dark Side!
I"m so sorry, ND. I hope her passing is peaceful.
