Recruiter just called me about a contract position. Located thirty miles away.
We really need to punch this week in the balls and run away to Tahiti.
Hey, evil dead, you're in my seat.

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.
Ooh, maybe Buffista Island can be in San Francisco Bay!
The only privately owned island on the San Francisco Bay is up for sale. Red Rock Island, 5.8 undeveloped acres plunked in the bay eight miles north of Fisherman’s Wharf, was purchased by attorney David Glickman in 1964 for $49,500. Now 78 and living in Bangkok, Glickman’s putting the island on the market at $10 Million.
...the price works out to be about $1.5 million an acre. "Where can you buy land for that in San Francisco?"
eta: Someone commented:
Every year the fact that Red Rock island is up for sale makes it onto local TV "news". The continued heartbeat of this story is an excellent measure of PR-as-news.

"I keep to a strict diet of ill-advised enthusiasm and heartfelt regret." Leigh Bardugo
Heeee! I am giddy with tiredness! Actually being upset and unhappy has wrapped around the continuum to giddiness. Not a bad thing.
And I am making plans for next year. I just realized if I could find a job in Portland Unified School District for next year, I would get paid as much as I get paid now. Hmmm... must consider a move in the very near future.

Sounds like an excellent base for Justice League San Francisco.

Ann, that's a ferret.
Happy Birthdays, ita's mom and Steph's mom!
I suspect we're being haunted in a very pleasant way.
Sounds like two nice dreams.

Belated comment on the term "bright" as the new atheist brand:
"Bright" is a more succinct ways of saying "Please beat me up and shove me into a locker".

Remember that the frontier of the Rebellion is everywhere. And even the smallest act of insurrection pushes our lines forward.
A "T" Tower in the San Francisco bay would go well with the new East span of the Bay Bridge.
