Jayne: That's a good idea. Good idea. Tell us where the stuff's at so I can shoot you. Mal: Point of interest? Offering to shoot us might not work so well as an incentive as you might imagine.

sara, I'm so glad that you get to transition to Aura!

Just went to the travel medicine clinic and it was surprisingly great! The NP was super cool and totally willing to prescribe the preventives I'd hoped, and recommended some others. And I got two vaccinations right then and there (that part I'm figuring will suck tonight but ah wel)

I'm terrifically busy with my ennui.

NPR's posted the result of their Tiny Desk Contest, and the winner is really interesting. I didn't think I liked it at first, but it's really haunting.

(Really. No, really. Reallllly.)

Every now and then, I think I might actually be a little odd.

Wow, Dana. I hope she becomes more well-known after this.

Ugh. Missing credit card is not in my pants I wore yesterday. Here's hoping the bar has it. :(

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

Yeah, Dana, I heard her on the radio this morning -- it was really interesting!

Days shrink and grow cold, sunlight through leaves is my song. Winter is long.

Yay sara, Big Ba-Da-BOOM!

I'm sorry brenda. But at least it's past tense, now.

Magically reappearing card, meara.

I will have to listen to Tiny Desk later. Dana, my hair is straight, slick, and fine and won't hold most retention aids. Lacking pinchy-clips, which do work, I do two thin braids to hold the bulk of the hair back, and self-knot the braids. The knot does come loose, but it usually holds for an hour or two.

I remember the crazy days. 500 posts an hour. Nubmer! Natgbsb

Therapy today. Therapist is a big fan of y'all, my online support group. Apparently I am very hard on myself, that was the insight today. I project my disappointment in myself as if it were coming from others, thus always thinking I am disappointing them.

Wine tonight.

I am confident you are not always disappointing people.

Ahahaha. A different member of my team just let me know she wants to apply for a job at a partner organization. Which, I'm so glad she told me now, because maybe I can use this to get her a promotion, but that would throw the whole team out of whack!

Literally, maybe my whole team should just leave at once and say Fuck You to management. Two are on the verge of Performance Improvement Plans, one might move, at least two of us are kind of fed up....
