Lead CNA and I are cleaning up a resident who has had, in her words, "a really bad emergency." (No kidding. *grabs clothespin for nose*)

Resident: So how are you dear?
Me (worried she may actually be coming down with something): Oh, I'm fine. More importantly, how are you feeling?
Resident: Shitty. *giggles*
Me: *if not for the state of hands & gloves, would facepalm*

On that note, off I go for more.

Scene: me driving along the highway in a car whose brakes have been squeaking for awhile as I procrastinate getting them checked, suddenly hears horrendous grinding noise.

Me: Holy f&^%#! They can't get that bad that fast, can they? Why does my car suddenly sound like the frickin' TARDIS?

*beat*

Me: Oh. That's my phone reminding me to go to the appointment I'm already driving to.

*facepalm*

Dragging the car in tomorrow after that moment of panic anyway, so it served some purpose other than me feeling like an idiot.

In other news, I claimed a prompt for [livejournal.com profile] queer_fest. It's probably going to be short (minimum is 1000 words, and I have a feeling it'll run somewhere between there and 1500), so if I can at least get a complete draft done before claiming ends, I may grab another, as there are quite a lot of very intriguing prompts to choose from. Claiming is open until April 2, if you're interested. Tons of fandoms represented. *offers chocolate*

Life's been a weird mix of calm and OMFGSTRESS lately, which is what I'm blaming my current fixation with online jigsaw puzzles on. JigZone has become a particular favorite, because of the fact you can choose how many pieces and what style of pieces you want to work with. Mostly I go for 100 pieces in classic cut, but it's nice to have options. I should really be asleep now, but I just had to finish this one first, and then, given the subject, decided to share:

Have fun!

*facepalm*

Dear whomever put together the flier for the big agency interfaith thingy,

I realize that times are tough, people are stretched thin, and it may be a bit hard to find someone with the time to proofread your flier before you go to print. And I also am entirely aware that we all make goofy mistakes and generally don't pick up on them ourselves.

Given that, may I humbly suggest that, while it's not the be-all and end-all of proper writing, turning on spell check might avoid the problem of having your flier announce that the event will be on "FIDAY" in big, bold, 32-point font?

Just a thought,
me

They actually hadn't been bad through September, just long. This one? A bit more messed up than usual. Some of the things are fun. Others less so. I'll cut the work crap, though the third one is mildly funny.

Reason #984 why it makes no sense to have me case managing someone, even short-term to cover a leave of absence: )

Reason #1047 why my boss, though a very nice guy, is a horrible boss: )

Reason #354 why fandom and work aren't really mixy things, though not in a *bad* way: )

In other news, I've apparently now got a rabid choreo bunny to match the rabid plot bunny. Because that's just what I need. Well, actually, it'd get me moving a bit more, which would be good. And there did seem to be a not-entirely-clear-but-there link between choreographing "Chinese Burn" and finally spitting out the Faith/Remus stories, so maybe there's just something about the process that helps me get into a character's head?

Or, you know, the Muses just find it irresistibly funny watching what happens when rabid bunnies of various creative flavors take a chunk out of me. That said, when I lit the candle at Their shrine tonight, there were extra thanks. I miss dancing. It, like writing, is one of the things that keeps me moderately sane. The fic-that-would-not-die and now this choreo bunny may well be the things that keep me from completely losing it this semester, or, if they don't, at least I'll enjoy losing it a lot more than I would without them.

Wading through several days of email now that the school week is done, I just came across this comment in a review for "As Soon As I Belong": "Poor Severus, cockblocked by Voldemort."

Well, that's one way of looking at it! LOL
