INTERNET! LIVEJOURNAL! You never do this to me but you are doing it now and it is killing me. I have NO TIME TO CATCH UP ON ALL THE INTERESTING THINGS YOU ALL SAID TODAY AND YOU ALL SAID SO MANY INTERESTING THINGS TODAY!
Today was SO SO SO ANNOYING at work and I am torn between hoping Will stays home so he's not sick anymore and wishing Will would come back to work because when Will is not at work EVERYTHING GRINDS TO A PAINFUL HALT and for some reason there is money for extravagant public policy forums but not for STAFF, and so Rachel and I have to try to do Will's job all day and our jobs get thrown under the bus and OH, WORK, WHY DO YOU DO THIS TO ME?
Anyway I just talked to my dad on the phone for what I think is a new record, about an hour and fifteen minutes, because it is his birthday and my dad is awesome.
THINGS I TALK TO MY DAD ABOUT THESE DAYS (SELECTED ITEMS)
-Barack Obama and the mountains in Virginia he let people keep blowing up
-Barack Obama's going to fix credit cards and health care and PLEASE GOD, maybe stop American agriculture from imploding on itself?
-HEALTH CARE: WE WELCOME THE NEW SOCIALIST OVERLORDS
-bank bailouts
-psychiatric medications and our cousin the psychiatrist
-iMacs
-war
-homegrown vegetables
-vacuum tubes
-the joys of DVR
Someone should write me a nice little story about something nice and/or ridiculous so that maybe tomorrow isn't so stupid and annoying as today.
SUGGESTIONS:
-more of either
crimsonclad's or
helenish's Kirk/Spock
-someone else's Kirk/Spock in the same vein
-a story about a nice doggy you met somewhere (tonight I met a nice doggy outside the yogurt place; his name was Satchmo and he was 11 and from New Orleans but he acted like a puppy)
-lots of pictures of C.Fine and/or Quinto.
Oh, also, I am working my way through the divine secrets of the ya-ya sisterhood, and THANK GOD MY RELATIONSHIP WITH MY MOTHER IS NOT LIKE THAT WOMAN'S.
INTERNET, CALL YOUR MOM AND YOUR DAD.
love,
MOM
