DON’T YOU THINK MAYBE, NOW THAT YOU HAVE YOUR BACHELOR’S DEGREE AND EVERYTHING, IT’S TIME TO STOP WORKING AT THE COFFEESHOP? I KNOW IT’S A DEGREE IN FILM AND VIDEO, BUT YOU’RE 30. CAN’T YOU AT LEAST GET A RECEPTIONIST JOB OR SOMETHING? YOU’RE NOT EVEN THE MANAGER.
I’M NOT TRYING TO HURT YOUR FEELINGS. I’M YOUR MOTHER. I LOVE YOU. I JUST WANT YOU TO HAVE HEALTH INSURANCE.
This is absolutely something my mother has said to me.

Everybody Needs A Hobby of the Day: A squirrel sucks face with a dinosaurs in a photo that Redditor ecn04002 says took him 45 minutes to snap:
I had to get him close to the table with a trail of seeds… slowly trusting me as I would move around him. Then got him to climb up the table where his precious seed was waiting for him… his only requirement was a cross-species kiss.
Passing the time: You’re doing it weird.

This just made my morning.

I know I’m extra late to this party
But I finally just heard “You Are a Tourist” and am now EXTRA mad that I didn’t get those DCFC tickets that I was already mad about not getting.
Goddamn.

Last Monday was so good that I should have known the universe would have some brutal plans for this week.
By 9:35 this morning I had already: dealt with some disturbing decision making by my administration, spoke with an angry, irrational parent, and nearly squeezed a banana so hard it would have exploded in my hand.
I would like to point out, however, that I am trying to behave as maturely as possible. I am TRYING to remain quite zen about this whole situation. I am trying not to vent my frustrations upon people who are not to blame. And I am trying desperately to find articulate and eloquent ways to voice my concerns to those who are to blame.
We shall see how this unfolds.

Working for ones alma mater can be a real catch 22. On the one hand, I am grateful for everything that I’ve accomplished as a result of my education there. On the other hand, I am quite fed up with being treated like shit just because I feel (and, apparently, so do they) that I owe them my gratitude.
All I can say is that I’m getting a solid lesson in “Fuck You,” and I can’t wait to use it when I leave.
Someday I will leave, and I will leave you high and dry. Just wait.

Watching the women at work flirt shamelessly with my hot coworker is a form of entertainment.

I’m an idiot.
As I’m getting older, the frequency with which I have to roll into work hungover is increasing, instead of decreasing.
Remind me not to have that 4th beer next time, will you?

You guys, it has been a rough day here on the LES. But everything’s fine now, because it’s 3pm and I’m leaving in an hour. BOOYAH.

Thank god it’s Friday. I’m exhausted and had nightmares about students refusing to pick up report cards on time. What does it MEAN?
It means I need a fucking vacation.
On the upside, it’s warm, I’m wearing a t-shirt and jeans at work and my brain feels like jello.
