If nothing else, Lucky Charms has taught us that cereal components of different consistency can be magically delicious.
On reflection, it's not so much the textures as the different soggying timeline. I love Product 19 but you have to eat that shit fast.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
what about just "working so hard."
That is what I went with!
I wish I had left 10 minutes ago, given that I'll be working on my day "off" tomorrow. Now I have to wait 20 more minutes for the stupid bus.

GIFT WRAP. That's what I'm forgetting.

That's the pain / That cuts a straight line down through the heart / We call it love
Ugh, somehow my sending an email to my dad (who asked what I wanted for Christmas), saying that I'd prefer a donation in my name instead of a gift, has now turned into my mom (who LOVES giving gifts) getting her feelings hurt and me having to backtrack and apologize and probably call her to smooth things over. I swear the gift part of the holidays is the most stressful thing to me as an adult.
And in other news, someone opened the door to the lactation room (a former supply closet, so I can understand why) just after I took off my pumping "bustier" and just before I put on anything else. So that was fun.

I am a woman of various inclinations and only some of the time are they to burn everything down in frustration
Cereal sounds complicated.
Staying the course? Seeing it through? Plugging away?
Hm.
ETA "working so hard" might just be the best, really.

The gift part of the holidays is totally stressful! I have mostly opted out of all that and it's a great relief.
Oy, Kate, that's a very sit-com-esque event.

"There are few hours in life more agreeable than the hour dedicated to the ceremony known as afternoon tea."
I think that having a small infant should mean I don't have to deal with gift giving this year. I wish there was a nice way to only buy for the kids in my life and tell all the adults they're out of luck.

It was! My back was turned, so I didn't see who it was and I don't think they saw too much, but still. Awkward.
And now I write an email to our Operations folks asking for a lock on that door.

Yeah, me too.

Always Anti-fascist!
I've heard that people do that within families sometimes. I like to buy presents, but then I don't have in=law drama, workplace Yankee swap and all the rest of that slowing my roll.
