All of the systems I use at work run in the browser, either as a website or a java popup. One of them will refuse to let you re-login if you don’t exit it properly. So now I have fifteen minutes of downtime til I can do my job again.

the thing about being full-time employed is that oops I actually also work for two-thirds of my waking weekend hours and the problem that has surfaced immediately is that I am hiding in tumblr and making myself rushed and/or late before I go do things because I am grasping at ways to feel like I have time to myself.

okay cool you can’t even taste the sugar so more of that next time otherwise I like what’s happening but I’m a bit disappointed you can’t taste the grapefruit. Is zest not optional?
