Boot Bait

[popkin16]

I'm trying to be better about linking interesting McShep tumblr posts, so have a good post:

"Petition to have John refer to Rodney in his offworld gear as boot bait and for Rodney to go crazy not knowing what it means."

EEEE That's delightful!

Thanks so much for sharing, bb.

That is so perfect. I kinda wish I was still in Arlington, so randommindtime and I could perhaps hang out.

[popkin16]

You're very welcome :D I just love the idea of this so much!

[popkin16]

That would have been awesome :( I'm sure you guys would get along.

btw, how are you doing, young-un? How is life? You must have a niece or nephew by now.

[popkin16]

I do have a niece! Her name is Emelia, and she's super cute. We see her once or twice a week :) I'm still getting used to just holding her, lol.

Work is insanely stressful right now - we're super busy and we're low on cart pushers, so they've been pulling people from my department to help out, which leaves us short staffed. I am super dreading going to work tomorrow. Last Tuesday was so bad I was near tears and went home to drink, which I never do.

But my fandom life is going well and is the only thing keeping me sane.

How are you bb?

Haha, love it. Boot bait, huh? Not booty bait?

Oh my god, you just know John would make that joke! Rodney would be torn between feeling pleased and groaning at the awful joke.

I’m so sorry work continues to be super stressful. If I could wave a magic wand to make it all better, I would. I want all happy, good things for you.
I love the name Emilia, very pretty. Of course I never got to use my favorite girls names I was always fond of Olivia.
Things are ok here. Mostly good There are still things I’m struggling with and I’m angry I can’t seem to make progress. Or maybe I should say not making progress quickly enough ::shrugs::

Corporate handed down some new scheduling rules, so instead of working four 8 hour shifts, I now get to work six 4.5 hour shifts. I had to open up my availability to make my hours, so I don't know what I'm going to do in terms of school.

Emelia IS very pretty - and so is Olivia, which is a friend of mine's name.

Aw, I'm sorry. It can be really hard when you're working on something and it feels like you're getting nowhere. Very frustrating. But it's just like when you see someone for the first time in years - you notice all the changes, though if you'd seen them every day you wouldn't have.
