Do nannies get paid this much in the States, cuz I think I need a new career.
Doubt it, and believe me I've been thinking about hiring myself out as a nanny here.
The only thing that part-time helps is that I'd have time to make meals on more days. Otherwise it actually reduces the discrepancy between my salary and the nanny's.
I think the psychic income and other intangibles are worth too much to me to quit, but the whole thing is making me want to revisit the Motherhood Manifesto.
Nora, I hear you about the office chair. Glad the massage helped though!
vw, school does suck in entirely new ways once you hit college.
I have 36 million things to do and instead of doing any of them, I'm faffing about on the interbunny. Help?
Raq, I think those conservative types are always happy to save their own money, so they won't think of it as socialism. I think, however, you should charge them a percentage for "administrative fees" for bringing the idea to them.
I came in early enough to be at my desk for an 8 a.m. conference call. I still suspect that there's only a 50-50 chance it will happen. And if it doesn't, I'm still on the hook for a 1500 word article by Sept 21st.
Nora, I'm glad you're feeling better!

Yeah, next time I'll maybe just go to an NA meeting in a crackhouse.
Also, we are going to Vermont next week! Wheeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee!!

Drew's still quite patient with my as-yet-unmedicated tigger-ness.
I, on the other hand, think it's fun to feed Sonus sugar and watch him spin up like a dynamo.
Ok. Everything, except for one box I'm shipping to Emily, is out of the apartment...well, except for things going to the curb tomorrow night.
After I bring everything up and introduce Toto to Current!Landlord, I will head back over to Cambridge to start cleaning.
Oh, and in logging news, Cambridge!Landlord had the stairwell completely blocked again today. Too bad my camera was in the car. Oh, well. Logging it anyway.
vw - how much cleaning are you planning on doing? Do not clean up ANY mess that the landlord created. Seriously. You touch that tub, I'm gonna be pissed.

Why do you think I made two batches of brownies for the last gaming session??
I got sleep! Sleep sleep sleep! Now I have granola, yogurt, a banana, and coffee!!!
