"OK, let's go load up the transcription system with 60 video files!" "Oh, it's 4:40. Hm, maybe a little late to do this." ... "Oh, it's 5:18 and only 34 of the files are uploaded and I have to wait until they're done so I can input final transcription instructions." -_-

Almost an hour later, it finally finished. I did swing by the book store for a couple of presents while I was waiting, so at least there's that.

I'm the only witch allowed in the library, thank you.

One more work day tomorrow and then I prep for AJS, actually go to AJS (potential audience plants: I am presenting on the 18th!), and then collapse until the new year.

Me: "Wow, I had a stressful day, it sucked." > Gentleman comes home. Gentleman: "Hey, my coworkers told me to bring this flan home, you want it?" There is at least one deity and my husband with flan is one the purest expressions of their blessings.

Good morning from a meme I made in 2020 when we started the podcast

Tonight involves dancing along to "The Witch" by Rosetta Stone while cooking dinner.

My soul joyously becomes one with the universe when "Temple of Love" by the Sisters of Mercy comes on at the goth night and I can let loose. Apparently the 7 drunk preppy dudes who wandered in from the downstairs bar and jumped in a circle while chanting feel the same way.

I had this weird thing growing up where the things I could watch were heavily policed, but I could pretty much read whatever I wanted. My parents were very contradictory in general.

Hello 35, how are you.

Behold. My amazing new Weird Al shirt.
