Good luck with the testing, ita.
I went on a long walk during my lunch hour and got throroughly chilled. It was beautiful out, though, and totally worth it. Now I can't stop drinking hot tea.

Food has been achieved. As predicted, there was no crunchable snow to be found. It's already all turned into slushy goo.

Wait, is this real-world child support, where the money goes to buy food for the kids, or MRA fantasyland child support where the women just buy Ferraris and cocaine? -Jessica
I'm listening to The Best of Diana Ross and the Supremes.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
I think you might want to eat something green. also possibly leafy.
If you're talking to me, I think you're crazy.

Greece's financial crisis threatens to take down all of Western civilization - a civilization they themselves founded. A rather tragic irony - which is something they also invented. - Jon Stewart
Shrift, that is WONDERFUL news. That is like Very Special ER Christmas news. Congratulations.

The feeling you get when your brain finally lets your heart get in its pants.
Yay for shriftgrandmother!
Weekend plans: Flying to Phoenix tonight after work, then either a 2.5 hour drive to Tucson and then crashing or getting a hotel room at the airport and then getting up at the assscrack of dawn to drive to Tuscon. After that, Christmas shopping with my mother and trying not to go beserker and kill my parents.
Of course, if I fail at the latter, the former is kind of moot.
