I want work to just stop for like a month. We are moving into a new space, the buildout of which is not quite finished yet, and I am part of the team coordinating it all. So boring, yet so stressful.
I think my job is making me a very boring person. I feel like I never have an original thought. I wish I were funnier or more interesting. Maybe I was always boring and now I just have more time to notice how boring I am.
God, this sounds like a series of pleas for people to tell me how fascinating I am. And of course nothing could be more tedious than that.
BOURGEOIS ENNUI: I HAS IT.
Today I learned about fistula, a horrible pregnancy-related condition that ruins many women's lives in the developing world. It made me sad and also made me double committed to never, ever getting pregnant. Even though fistula is virtually unheard of in the developed world, the thought of it horrifies me beyond the capacity for rational thought. Luckily tomorrow I have a gyno appointment, and it is my fondest hope that the good physician will see fit to prescribe me an IUD.
In closing, please buy a prom ticket so that Lil Tuffy does not have an aneurism. Thank you.

I don't know if you care that much, but that GI bill in the senate. It's almost a sure thing at this point, despite bush saying he'll veto it.

I saw that documentary about the problem with fistulas in Ethiopia. I wondered why so many in Ethiopia and in good time it was explained that the women don't grow as much as they should because they do all the work and don't eat enough protein. Heartbreaking stuff.
