My own opinion of Gaga is no secret, but sweet merciful christ, I love Shirley.

mxandb replied to your post: Almost time for the semi-annual all staff meeting….
I misread that last part as “I hope there are snack gods” (don’t ask how, low caffeine levels?). So, for the sake of your meeting, I hope there ARE snack gods.
I think there may be snack gods, as the snacks included chocolate covered strawberries and bottled yogurt smoothie drinks. And hot chocolate. Thank you,...
Almost time for the semi-annual all staff meeting. I hope there are good snacks.
I recognized only 2 actresses in the Vanity Fair cover spread (Rooney Mara and Jennifer Lawrence) without consulting the list. And only half of the names are familiar to me. I have no idea who these people are.
My left forearm hurts in a way that I didn’t really know was possible. Also my wrists. Time for me to order some wrist wraps for kickboxing.
mysinmysoul asked: My dear, you are absolutely delightful. Your advice is spot-on and frequently hilarious, and you've been unfailingly nice to me, even when I POST IN ALL CAPS. Also, you just got the Kitty Cat Dance stuck in my head and I ain't even mad. That's love.

That looks BEYOOTIFUL. What did you use?
Thanks! It’s Mattese’s Blazing Burgundy. In some light it looks bright red, in others a bit darker.
Dear Forever Lazy infomercial - there is no such thing as a blanket that is “too big” when you’re snuggling on the couch. That is just extra cocooning comfort.
Gina Torres and Laurence Fishburne are married? I did not know that. (I consulted Google after seeing them together at the SAG awards.)
Finally got around to watching the first episode of the second season of Sherlock and then later painted my nails a nice vampy red in honor of Ms. Adler.
Earlier this week I was feeling super shitty emotionally. Now that’s a bit better, but I’m feeling crappy physically. I skipped kickboxing last night because I was kind of woozy/out of it, and I’m still feeling like that today. I just want to sleep for ages.
(By the way, my kickboxing place takes the whole “don’t miss class” thing very seriously, apparently. I...

Stop that cat, you’re going to make me accidentally fire this gun. Don’t you know there’s a ceasefire agreement in place?
60 degrees or 80 degrees. Those seem to be our two main options for temperature at work. Sometimes it goes lower or higher, but it’s very rarely in the nice middle 70 range.

Why not do yoga? At least you’ll get endorphins…
I’m going to try to do it at home instead of going to class, I think. I’m at the point where I may just burst into tears at any moment and I’d rather not do that in front of people.
And I think know I’m going to skip yoga and just go straight home after work and curl up and be mopey.
I skipped therapy today, which was probably not the best idea, since I do think I’m slipping into a depressive episode again or at least not feeling too great. But I also really did not want to talk, so there’s that. Argle bargle.
I think I may need to get my meds tweaked again. So far he’s been focusing on the PMDD, but it’s becoming clearer that that’s not the only...
Replies & the Secondary Blog
thefilminist:
thaw-game:
Someone mentioned to me this morning that there’s no “reply” button for this blog, so I set about enabling it. To my surprise, it turns out I cannot use any of Tumblr’s social functionality for this blog because it’s not the primary blog for my account. I can’t enable replies, follow people, etc. And I can’t switch primary accounts, so it appears we’re stuck this way.

I have a renewed desire to do all the things at work on the off chance I won’t be here in a month. I don’t want to leave my successor with a bunch of random stuff and half-finished tasks.
I think that of the 35 bottles of nail polish I have, at least 10 to 15 of them were purchased since I’ve joined Tumblr.
You are all horrible influences.
I have 35 bottles of nail polish (including regular and matte topcoats). That is way more than I thought.

You know, I would have gone to those meetings if ANYONE HAD BOTHERED TO TELL ME ABOUT THEM. Argh. I went once when I thought there was a meeting, but then no one was there, so I figured there wasn’t one and I’d get an email before the next one. Only I never got an email. And I think I’ve missed at least 2, maybe 3, meetings since then. Awesome. Now I look totally unreliable and...
