Drag racing.Eh.
Yeah, love not having to go to work, but when I know I'l be working another six hours today anyway, it loses a bit of its allure.Sorry to hear the day off lost its shiny.

[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.

I'ma loving it. Still fun, still good, still love my kids.
Grading is of the suck, but that's just one of the drawbacks. Everything else is pretty cool.

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

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

Any moing dates set yet?Nope. I need a for sure okay from the rental place and to maybe figure out some family things. March 6 - 17 th, sometime in there.
I am about to break out the Magic Eraser.
I also purchased food to see me through this massive cleaning task ahead of me.
Including the makings for some of my paternal grandma's favorites: chopped chicken livers and potato pancakes. The foods that growing up made me wonder if there was any Jewish lineage (we didn't really have a religion growing up and it never occurred to me that I could actually just ask) til I realized the cream in the livers and the bacon served with the pancakes made that a tad unlikely. And delicious. Did I mention the delicious?
Turns out that there was Christian Scientist on that side and a whole lot of Catholic on the other. So much for my ideas of a Nana.
I also picked up some chips and salsa and some gorgeous wee asparagus. My food is as split personality as my heritage.
I was disappointed myself -- but then they showed the clip and it makes the noooooooooooooooooise vroooooooooooooooooooooooooooommmmmmmIf it just goes in a straight line? It's not as interesting to me. Also I prefer four wheels. So cycles and drag racing are out.

Ugh, I think I am getting a cold. My throat hurts and I have that stuffy head thing.

That man was going to shank me. Over an omelette. Two eggs and a slice of government cheese. Is that what my life is worth?
When you're the fifth kid, you learn pretty quickly that comparison is fruitless.
Hee. I'm the middle of five. Maybe you just have to be one of a passel of kids and that lesson gets learned early.

Nana korobi, ya oki. (Fall down seven times, stand up eight.) ~Yuzuru Hanyu/Japanese proverb
It's interestng to see how everyone defines success. When I was younger, moving out of my parents house and staying out meant success to me. Imagine my surprise when I found myself moving back in when I was 45. Then, I found myself moving in with my daughter. We do what we have to do to take care of ourselves; sometimes that means doing it all on our own, sometimes it means asking for help. Asking for help doesn't indicate lack of success, it indicates that you're smart enough to know your limitations.
