That's not a bad answer, really. Although don't let him say "sucky" at school.
We're still working on a plan, but so far it involves being sent to prison and becoming somebody's bitch.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

Sometimes I think I might just move up to Vermont, open a bookstore or a vegan restaurant. Adam Schlesinger, z''l
Wow. Talk about missing a point.
Wow. That's so ... does that guy know what he sounds like?
I've been reading a bunch of sites on veganizing recipes. Usually fairly good stuff, but some people don't seem to get that you can't just replace cheese with nutritional yeast in everything. In fact, it's frequently better to just skip the cheese and add some more spices or whatever.

That was my exact thought!

It's five thousand for kissing, ten thousand for snuggling... End of list.
Ugh. I ordered food two hours ago. When I called a half hour ago they said he was practically here already. Now I'm hungry and ANGRY.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
Sometimes "Mommy's here" is the best answer. Poor thing. Who I still haven't met. Doesn't seem right.

I remember the crazy days. 500 posts an hour. Nubmer! Natgbsb
yeah, I tell him stuff like that, but it does not answer his questions which are more like "will there be needles?" "how will they do that?" and on. My answer may be good for some stuff, but doesn't really satisfy him on those and since lying is not an option, well reactions have been varied. But at bedtime we avoided tears.

Yeah, it's good to give him the info, but still hard, I'm sure.
Now I'm hungry and ANGRY.
Seriously. This is why I practically never even order in lunch -- I would zap out if it took more than like 25 minutes to get there.

I wanted my mommy to negotiate the last dentist visit. And will probably want her even more at the next. But it takes time to want mommy to solve everything ouchy and not give you the details. Like 20 years. God knows I was almost as mad at her as I was the dentist when I had the wisdom teeth yanked.
Damn, her food photos are raising my cholesterol.
No kidding. You read the favorite sandwich recipe? I don't think I use that much butter in 6 months. But man, it sounds tasty. I like her food photos almost as much as her others. I think she only picked up a camera and photoshop deliberately a year and some months ago.
Makes me miss the family farm and the west in general, she does.

Ann, that's a ferret.
Hi, Susan!
Also, I noticed that nobody answered Stephanie's question. I'm not aware of any recourse under the law relating to Federal employees. I wouldn't be surprised if the agreement that the union negotiated with the agency would have something to say on the subject, though that may be more limited to the conditions under which you take the training than the authority to increase the training on you.
Another option that may help you at least somewhat would be to discuss the situation with your supervisor. Depending on your agency culture, you might be able to work something out. Maybe stretching out the training to minimize strains on you, or taking some of the training by computer.

Hi Susan, how's Anabelle?
oh msbelle, sorry all around for what seems like a very cruddy day. I hope whatever you have, Lyme or something else, behaves well and goes away. And I'm sorry about mac, but he's very lucky to have you.
WRT purses, I bought my last one about two years ago. Clearly I need to buy more purses.
Finally, Frances has something to say: jriokoooommmmmefsdd 123456 frances FRANCES
