Aphorism
You know that old saying, “Work smarter, not harder”?
You ever use it on someone and then wonder why they looked pissed?
You just told them that they’re working stupid.
I hate my boss.

Oh yeah, about the interviews:
I’ve told a few of you, but for what it’s worth, if you get the request in to me by end of day tomorrow, I’ll do the interview questions for you. After that, if you want to participate, then wait until one of my interviewees posts their answers and ask them to do it. If…
Personal Independence.
This morning I slept in until about 9:00. I might have even slept later, except that was when The Professor decided he was tired and came in to bed. He’s still in asleep now, and it’s given me the whole day to myself. I’ve wasted the entire day. I played Snood (rather disinterestedly – it…
A Seasonal Haiku
Fever, chills, nausea, Muscle aches, headache and snot. Influenza sucks.
The Hardest Part
I watched Clueless as I fed him this morning. I paid attention to more than just the food this time. I realized that he’s eating only to please me. Perhaps he even eats because he remembers there was joy in it. But he doesn’t eat because he wants to. Today he was sound asleep in…
A Feast of Blood Oranges
The blood oranges have again appeared at my grocery store. This is nearly a month earlier than their first appearance last year, and I dare to hope that this means that this year’s season will be longer. The Socialist has been indulging my addiction, and has purchased several dozen blood oranges for me already. I…
Zoo and ACS Relay for Life
I was a “Docent” for the local zoo for about five and a half years. The Docent Council is a group of volunteers that help staff educational activities at the zoo. We’re the ones that give the tours, take the Zoo-2-U van out to the elementary schools and special events in the area. The Docents…
I empathize. My "boss" is pretty darned stupid, too. Probably the worst part is her blatant hyprocracy. That one is REALLY hard to take in silence. She spouts off about how "wonderful" Trump is and all sorts of Republican rhetoric ALL THE TIME. Then she demands that the rest of us NEVER discuss politics AT ALL. She stopped me from even saying that I grew up in a bi-partisan household last week! Just a year ago her husband’s life was saved when he had half his kidney removed because it had malignant tumors. He was STILL in the hospital (on Medicaid’s dime) when she voted a straight Republican ticket, all the way from Trump on down. And boy-oh-boy was she happy when her Medicare kicked in! Hypocrites are the WORST!
