Our wings are not tired

Gah! Crazy client is stressing me out.

We are doing the job of three and a half companies, so yes, we are sending 5 people to Paris and your other vendors are only sending 2.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

Sounds like you should be sending 7?

You would think. Alas, they do not see it that way. The budget has exploded with additional charges from all of the vendors, and that's a drag, but it's because they have an unrealistic schedule, that's not the fault of the vendors.

The status is NOT quo.

Oh ack. Not even worth going into, but I just had a super awkward conversation with an administrator about something I said in my class that a student misinterpreted. Totally my fault and it's all good, but I'm left feeling totally embarrassed. I hate feeling ooky.

Lying on the floor and whining is not an appropriate reaction to sleep dep, I know this. But my G-D, I want to.

Aaaaand I just remembered that I still need to write the email to folks about a group b-day present for the Adorable One. (He turns 50 this month.) Maybe tonight I will have a brain and command of words so I can do that.

Fandom means never having to say "But where would I wear that?"

Timelies all!

It's gray and rainy here. Also, it's Pi Day, and I have no pie. In short, bleah.

GS: If you had to choose between kicking evil in the head or the behind, which would you choose, and why? Minsc: I'm not sure I understand the question. I have two feet, do I not? You do not take a small plate when the feast of evil welcomes seconds.

While I have strong feelings about the Democratic candidates, I have no intention of voting for the Republican candidate, regardless of which Dem picks up the nomination. There's just way too much at stake and beyond that, the idea of rewarding the Republicans for deciding to arbitrarily block any nomination Obama makes to the Supreme Court (after spending the last 8 years dragging their feet over all the other nominations he's made) is appalling.

Why did Darth Vader cross the road? To get to the Dark Side!

I have no pie, but feel strangely compelled to bake. However what I want to bake is this recipe for peanut butter blondies with chocolate chips. I may make it in a pie pan and pretend, just so's I have a good excuse.
