Shabbat shalom, Nilly!
To commemorate a past event, you kill and eat an animal. It's a ritual sacrifice, with pie.

Remember that the frontier of the Rebellion is everywhere. And even the smallest act of insurrection pushes our lines forward.

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
SO good to see you, Nilly!
I can open a bottle with a key. Any key.
B flat?

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?
Nilly, I'm so glad you're okay and thanks for checking in.
Please don't worry about me, due to the whole political situation around here, OK?
You know we won't be able to do that, right? It's human nature to worry about people you care about.

OMG I can't do my work. If I could just focus, I could actually get something done today. But no. Apparently that is impossible.
This is actually the problem with summer hours -- as soon as I get here, I feel like it's almost time to leave, so what's the point in getting all involved with some task?

Shit's all sorts of different now.
None whatsoever.
Go to the park and get a pretzel.

I already went to ABP and got a yogurt parfait! Now I'm clearing out some old files -- at least that's useful.

I can't work today. The server with the database I use crashed early this morning. They're still working to get it back up. Can't do anything until they do.

I'm still not working!
But I have to start in 3 days. Currently waiting for the parents to get back from the bank or something. Not sure where they went. Communicating amazingly well with the housecleaner even though my spanish is craptacular.
So yesterday I went and visited with a childhood friend (she was about 1 when they moved 2 blocks from our house at the time. She's the one whose art is on my walls.) She's now married and has a 2.5 year old who looks like both her and her sister at that age (and maybe the father, but I've never seen his baby pictures. Um, and he's gorgeous so they're probably pretty cute.) Anyway, they bought a house not 2 blocks from our original homes. And anyway, it was LOVELY to talk with her, and remember all sorts of crazy things about our childhoods that really, we should barely recall. Like the film night party when we were probably under 5 where the french Beauty & the Beast was shown. Or my dad carrying her on his shoulder back to her house in the middle of the night when she was 2.5 and her mom went into labor but was sent home when it stopped...several times.
It really makes me wish we were in the same neighborhood NOW, because that would just seem right, except with us as grown ups, same ages as our mothers when they first met.
Anyway.
Where the heck did my parents go anyway? Bank isn't that far.
