No, I was just thwumping for vw. I should have made that more clear. I'm good. Cranky, but good. You know. Normal. For me.

vw, that stinks. I don't even know what I would do. I really do hate those sorts of situations. There's no right answer.

Go home, and have ice cream.

I don't even know what I would do.

I didn't feel like I had a choice, really. A therapist called after a session with one of our kids and said that the kid had a tough session and wasn't feeling safe enough to walk home. Someone needed to come get her. There were only two counselors on the floor...neither could leave. I wasn't gonna let the kid walk home. I know what it feels like to feel like that.

IT'S RAINING. CRAAAAAZY SUMMER.

vw, you are a great person. That's all.

Off to Batman!!

ARRRRGH.

"I think it’s more difficult for someone who’s trying to live his life consistently with the Catholic faith to vote for Democratic candidates, because the party’s platform includes things which are clearly against Catholic teaching, such as abortion and homosexual marriage and so on," Fessio said. True, he continued, Democrats support the welfare state and Republicans do not — but despite the Church’s doctrine of a "preferential option for the poor," Fessio refused to call this a Democratic strength. "These are things which the Catholic Church can accept different points of view on," he claimed, somewhat mysteriously.

Whew. Okay. Done now.

vw, it doesn't sound like you had any choice. Given your own experiences and what an incredibly kind, caring person you are, you did the only thing you could do. Go home, relax and treat yourself to something good.

ARRRRGH.

Asshole.

So we have these signs here at work that I noticed was gramatically incorrect. I told the PTB. THe recently reordered the signs but didn't fix the problem. I said something and my boss GOT MAD AT ME. "You're the only one who sees the problem."

WTF?

Empress, how dare you be literate?
