Jeez, don't get all Movie of the Week. I was just too cheap to buy you a real present.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

I need alcohol.

Not at all the same thing, but here are a bunch of vines of puppies: [link]

Remember that the frontier of the Rebellion is everywhere. And even the smallest act of insurrection pushes our lines forward.

Baby Red Pandas.

I didn't think it was possible for anything to be cuter than adult red pandas, but clearly I was mistaken.

Awwww, puppies.

How are red pandas and raccoons not related? But maybe they are?

I think raccoons are now considered their closest relatives (rather than the big pandas), but they're still distant. Enough for the complete absence of raccoon evil, I guess.

Restaurant fail last night trying a new place I'd been eagerly anticipating. Empty restaurant, order mix-up, undercooked goopy food, and overly attentive/apologetic service that made me uncomfortable—there was constantly someone at my elbow asking if I needed anything else or taking away a plate the instant I put my fork down. I threw away the to-go container because a cup of ramen for lunch today was more appealing.

Sort of related.

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

My condolences to everyone having a craptastic Tuesday. May the Tinos in your lives all get their due.

I need to grade a paper or two, then I think we pack and drive up the coast. Into the rain storn, ugh! But I am hoping we make it thru in the window between rainfalls.

I am a woman of various inclinations and only some of the time are they to burn everything down in frustration

It seemed really important that I get myself in to work today, and I managed that, so now I want a cookie and a nap, please.

Tinoooooooooo!

I think not crying at work, and not walking out whilst shouting "fuck all this shit" is probably a good plan and I hope you can all implement it today. I just need to get through today. And try not to strangle people. Who have had months and months to write a two sentence memo but can't be assed to do it (like, that person is the only one who CAN do it because it's something to explain wtf she did. But noooooo)

Otoh, I don't want msbelle'so job. And no one is shoving broth in my face for breakfast (boo, Ginger!!)
