So far done today: taught one class. ate a banana.
Still to do: teach another class. eat lunch. try to figure out the Tutte Polynomial on signed graphs. buy eggs.
Prepare to uncouple -- uncouple.

Spike's Bitches 35: We Got a History
[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.

Sometimes I think I might just move up to Vermont, open a bookstore or a vegan restaurant. Adam Schlesinger, z''l

I have so much school work to do today. I should get started on it, but I am still working on overcoming the gronk. Breakfast might help.

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.
I'm so gronkified that I forgot that I had my second cup of tea still steeping. So now it's all bitter. But I'm so gronkified I don't care.

Shit's all sorts of different now.
Today is my first day as a SAHM. Emeline has had breakfast and is watching George. After George, she'll get dressed and cleaned up and then we start our day.
We are going to Staples and cleaning out Emeline's room and sending out packages and cleaning the kitchen.
I also have to figure out what's for dinner.

What else besides ramen can you scoop? YOU CAN SCOOP THIS WORLD FROM DARKNESS!
Pizza. It's always pizza.

I’m responsible for my own happiness? I can’t even be responsible for my own breakfast! (Bojack Horseman)
I know that I was always told I wasn't allowed to elope because it cheated my family/friends out of a party.
HAHAHAHA. Since most of my family parties end in recriminations and tears, I feel slightly guilty about how NOT GUILTY AT ALL I felt about "depriving" others of using my day that I wished to pledge my love and committment for Tom to add additional chapters in the You Done Me Wrong Book of family pettiness and squabbling.
I mean, I like most of the members of my family OK, but I prefer to keep them separate.

No pizza for us! We will be having chicken made some way. Souped, baked, roasted, or casseroled. Just not sure which yet.

I asked my mom last night, "How would you react if I eloped?" (This is because Stepdad's family, with whom we had Easter dinner, kept hectoring me about getting married, and why "that guy hasn't put a ring on your finger yet," etc. etc. [There were also firearms at the dinner table -- real, loaded firearms that stepcousin's DH was carrying holstered ON HIS PERSON at Easter dinner -- but that's a whole other story.])
Anyway. I asked mom how she'd react if I eloped, and she said, without missing a beat, "I'd give you the wedding money for a down payment on a house."
My reply? "Really? All $50?" Mom just laughed.
But really -- the older I get, the more I'd rather elope and then throw a party later.
Not that I'm expecting to get married anytime in the next....oh, EVER, but, you know, a girl can dream.

Not if it's Passover!
Nora, you did have a lovely elopement. The #1 reason DH and I had a wedding was because he really wanted to bring people together for a happy reason. Fortunately, while our families can be craxy-making, they aren't the type to ruin a perfectly good reception. ("So long as there's enough ice cream for everyone, no one gets hurt," as my mother would say.)

This was me. I felt sort of silly planning a wedding when I was 35, had lived with my DH a number of years already, and knew how much everything cost.
