So what was to be a pleasant fifteen minute drop-in at work to connect some cables to a different server turned out to involve three hours of figuring out and fixing a bunch of mucked up Oracle configs. If this week shapes up like I'm now expecting it to, I'll probably have Friday off, anybody want to go to the shore or sing campfire songs or something?

Need to go take my mom stuff she forgot in a little while, hope her thing is being fun, it was stressing her out pretty badly right before I dropped her off. Had a lot of fun eating oversized soft serves melting astonishingly quickly in the newly minted summer heat with her earlier. Before that had kind of disturbing conversation about her feelings of inadequacy, low self image, etc. To repeat, if I haven't said it enough, if you are a woman (well, if you're anyone, actually, but for some reason this only seems to come up with women) & I actually bother to be friendly to you and act interested in what you say, you are really, really smart & should stop thinking you're not right now. If you don't know me, feel free to come by for a diagnostic.

Feel all vibratey and weird, like I've had way too much coffee, but I haven't, not today anyway. Tired of this nervous system, should get a transplant soon.
