Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

Fandom means never having to say "But where would I wear that?"
Timelies all!
Happy Birthday Tom!

I am a woman of various inclinations and only some of the time are they to burn everything down in frustration
Why is my customer sending me new orders on Friday afternoon? WHY?

Because they are bullshit and don't believe in happiness?

Sounds right.
The second half of my work day was flippin' annoying, I tell you what. But now I am home and ready to have some wine and sit by the fire. Wine at 4 pm is perfectly acceptable, yes?

Not so nice is that I'm about to ruin a Friday morning for a bunch of people because of a series of unfortunate events and an upset foreign government. - shrift
Wine at 10 am would have been acceptable today.
Our bid response for the state of MD went out priority overnight on Wednesday. It was due at 1 pm yesterday. Guess who delivered it today? FedEx. "Weather problems at its hub in Memphis." Uncounted man-hours of work spanning one month, wrangling cats from all different parts of the business, and at least one weekend's worth of work down the drain. We've appealed, but I don't have much faith. The regs are pretty clear on what happens in these instances.
And then I find out my CSR sat on a vehicle replacement FOR ONE MONTH. I emailed telling her to move forward with it on 9 Feb. That's the extent of my involvement; shit's supposed to get done without me babysitting it. Purchasing comes back and asks why the vehicle is still where it was a month ago. Her response? Oh, I forgot. Not today, people. Not today. But yeah, it was all today. I was ready to make the red wedding look like a fairytale come true. And now I get to have a talk with her director. I'm tired of the mistakes.
But I love you all, and I appreciate the fact that I can vent here.

I have actual vertigo, you guys. I wasn't expecting that. I assume it's related to my sinuses/allergies. But it's annoying and keeping me basically stuck on the couch.

It's super weird! I really did think my sinus issues were better; I wasn't avoiding the doctor just to avoid antibiotics. But I think the vertigo is sinus-related (all my upper teeth started hurting about 45 minutes ago, which is a definite BAD SINUS sign), so I'll call the doctor Monday, I promise.

Why did Darth Vader cross the road? To get to the Dark Side!
Ugh Maria, that sucks. You've earned all the alcohol you want
And ugh Steph, vertigo is such a bummer.
Speaking of bummers, my headache wants to come back. It can go fork itself if you ask me.
