I'm beginning to suspect that pumpkin spice lattes are really just an excuse to get more sugar into your coffee.

Not that I'm complaining, mind.

Today is Carl Sagan's birthday!

If you've never heard his famous Pale Blue Dot talk, please, take a few minutes. ♥

"Carl Sagan - Pale Blue Dot" [3:31]

So, first off, the lower level stuff:

I get into work ready to bust ass. We're supposed to finish the job after half a day, then go to the next one. I'm hustling, but T- actively tries to slow me down. Tells me to chill, keeps stopping to tell me stories, generally manages me in a way like he's not at all concerned about time. Sends coworker on three separate not-very-important errands.

So first off, I was wrong about temporary boss "T-" asking my coworker to get weed. I heard a conversation that sounded a hell of a lot like that, but it was actually re: a herbal supplement from the pharmacy.

The rest of the day definitely continued to be fucky, though.

Well we have a shitload of work today and the coworker I'm carpooling with is an hour and a half late so that's how my day is going so far.

"wheelie bin" is a great word and we should work on getting it more widely adopted into american english.

When unbraided, my hair now apparently reaches all the way down to my navel.

Now I just need to learn how to sing and lure men to their doom.

I really like foxes but I don't so much like cute image bots that don't credit the photographer.

<bird site> twitter.com/_fox_bot does though!

...wow, a quick search and this joke hasn't actually been recorded before. Nice.

everyone needs a fairy bongmother.

"wow, these headphones are nice. I can hear this wall of static so clearly!"

--me, just now, earnestly.

Well, shit. I just realized that what being a furry means to me personally is in fact very much linked up with postructuralism.

Lol.

A longass and hella productive day has left me exhausted. I think it's time for bonghits.

I reflexively make fox noises both when I'm around friendly people and when I'm home alone.

Car update: it is in fact a broken starter motor. Shop is gonna charge me $425 for it, which is a cost I can absorb but didn't really plan for. I'd do it myself (and have before) were it not already in their garage.
