Holy hell I'm doing my online safety training at work for the month and it's on workplace violence. First section is on recognizing warning signs and sweet Jesus this is an eight minute section and six minutes of that is "let's list all the symptoms of mood and developmental disorders" and only in the last two minutes are they listing actual markers of potentially violent people. Good lord.

But at least the next section is about the connection between domestic abuse and workplace violence, so that's good.

I bought a new car, y'all.

For the last two years, I've been driving a junked-up 2001 Chevy Cavalier that has been begging me to let it die for a year and a half. Fluids leaking, transmission problems, electrical problems, and the thing just looks like trash.

On Tuesday I bought a 2004 VW Jetta GL 5 speed. It's that deep, metallic, jewel-toned red. It's in really good shape, and it's only got 140,000 miles (a VW will easily run twice that long).

I bought it without ever having driven a manual before, because I'm crazy. But I've been picking up on it reasonably well. I drove to Walmart and back this morning in moderate traffic without stalling or pissing off anyone too much.

It's so much fun. It's beautiful. And all the dash lighting is red and bright blue, so it looks really cool driving at night. It's not the first car I've owned, but it's the first car I picked and it's such a huge upgrade.

Somehow, at the age of 22, I've managed to get tonsillitis for the first time.

Only in my right tonsil.
