Congrats, Lilty!
(Did you see my post in Natter yesterday re: closing credit card accounts? I don't want you to be penalized for doing what's best for you.)
Angel: Eve. So, I guess we should, I don't know, talk? Eve: About what? Angel: About what happened back there with us. Eve: Angel, it's not like this is the first time I've had sex under a mystical influence. I went to U.C. Santa Cruz.

Spike's Bitches 22: You've got Angel breath
[NAFDA] Spike-centric discussion. Lusty, lewd (only occasionally crude), risque (and frisque), bawdy (Oh, lawdy!), flirty ('cuz we're purty), raunchy talk inside. Caveat lector.

Not so nice is that I'm about to ruin a Friday morning for a bunch of people because of a series of unfortunate events and an upset foreign government. - shrift

Oh dear, I didn't. (I was Skipper McSkipperton yesterday.) I did figure that maybe my credit might take a slight hit in some way from all of this, but I don't see myself needing excellent credit for anything big in the immediate future, so it's worth a bit of not-greatness now so it will be better when it counts.

Someone on dailykos just linked to the following Newsweek article about parenting in an age of anxiety:
Interesting stuff.

Gud, I like Mere. Are you reading the actual Bible at all, though? If not, try Luke.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

Thanks, MFN! I hadn't thought of keeping long-standing accounts open. The rates are all too astronomical to feel good about using, even as emergency "Winifred the Echo is sick" cards, but maybe it's worth not closing them all, at least right away. I'll throw them in the freezer until it's decision making time.

Maybe the slacker mom article will be more my style. I couldn't get through the first one, because I was too busy rolling my eyes at the perfectionism.

Timelies. I just got back from driving a coworker to the emergency room where her husband was taken with nausea and cold sweats. I hope it's the flu and not a heart attack. They both take transit and the hospital isn't transit accessible.
Congratulations, PC! on the letter from the physicist. Your parents will enjoy reading it, I'll bet.

Huh. I thought the article was very anti-perfectionism. But in a way that made me realize it's not just me putting pressure on myself, it's the whole current Culture of Motherhood.
