And now she's all growed up and you still feel like you need to wrest your life from her overenthusiastic hands?

It's also such a sitcom cliche. You know? Main character finds someone they like to hang out with, they hang. Main character introduces the someone to the supporting characters. The someone and the supporting characters get along really well, and by the time main character realizes something has gone horribly wrong, supporting characters can't understand why she's being such a bitch to their new best friend.

Of course main character usually learns something valuable from the someone and that they weren't that bad after all, so maybe I should just shut my main character mouth.

vw, get away from the lights and sleep. I have no idea if caffeine helps me, and mint risks making it much worse. But when I can convince myself to lie the fuck down with my eyes closed, it's never a bad deal.

Me, I'm startled that I managed to go hours between learning of an instructor's death and the onset of a migraine. Finally, I get to feel a strong emotion without it bringing on immediate pain, and it's this one?

Thanks, world.

Yeah, bed is very soon. Sitting curled up on the couch with Toto in a completely dark apartment, except for my computer screen. Which, is stupid, but I've really been trying to stay up till 9 to kind of reset my sleeping schedule to a more reasonable one. Guess this is a night I could let myself go to bed early.

Sorry to hear about the instructor, ita. That's awful.

ita, that's horrible I'm sorry for you and all the other warrior women she inspired- like Buffy and the axe, you know?

{{vw}} and {{ita}} - both for good measure.

So Em just got into trouble. She kept taking her Cheerios out of her bowl and throwing them on the ground and stomping on them. She got a warning and then got put in her naughty spot. She wouldn't sit in the naughty spot so she got put in her crib. She started jumping in her crib, so she got a swat on the back of her leg. She cried a bit. Then, I went in to get her after she stopped crying. I sat her down, told her what she did wrong and why mommy was upset and asked her to say sorry. She said, "Sorry!" grinned, laughed and then said, "You're funny!"

She said, "Sorry!" grinned, laughed and then said, "You're funny!"

ded. Eta: (From the cute)

{{ita}} I'm so sorry.

{{vw}} Sleep is good. Do good.

BTDT.

The one thing I'm really looking forward to with the return of 80s fashion is the return of wearing black tights with dresses and skirts, because it makes it possible for me to wear dresses and skirts in the fall and winter without freezing.

I'm sorry for your loss, {{{ita}}}.

{{{vw}}} I hope the migraine goes away soon. Do you think it's a post-stress reaction?

Em is adorably evil.

I feel like I did a huge back to school shopping trip today, except it was a new job shopping trip with Teacup Guy. New pants, new shirts, new shoes, a trip to the tailor, a trip to Staples, and then we wrapped up the day with a trip to the market. Tired now.
