The office cat let me pick her up and hold her in my lap for a while this morning. So in a week and a half she's grown to trust me more than the cats I've been taking care of over two years do.
Damn it! You know what? I'm sick of this crap. I'm sick of being the guy who eats insects and gets the funny syphilis. As of this moment, it's over. I'm finished being everybody's butt monkey!

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
I've been getting someone else's reminders to do some online reference check thing. I did write back, even though I assume that one person isn't the make or break on someone getting a job.

Cute dresses! I have a similar polka-dot problem, Tep.

Why isn't everyone pelting me with JOY, dammit? - Zenkitty
I've already picked the perfect tights to go with the polka dot dress if I were buying it...because I might also have a polka dot problem.

I haven't trusted science since I saw the film "Flubber."
I thought there might be some polka-dot fans.

Yes, please. I think I've seen that place, not from up close but maybe from the hills nearby? Looks familiar.

Wow, had I a spare 5 mil that would definitely be on the list.
I can't believe this is my last work trip (well, last regular one. It's possible I'll end up at meetings once or twice a year, in the future--but at the moment there's MAYBE a meeting in September and that's it). I'm so worried I'm going to hate the new job and be bored at home all the time.
