bon - I so wanted to do the same thing, but I had just joked with my boss about taking "sick days" to get a break and then there's the whole thing that with mac and parents at my place - staying home is not really a break. I am thinking I may need to leave early and go to a movie.
you should feel NO GUILT!
Happy anniversary and birthday!
Jumping ahead to say how relieved I am that all my real-life/online connections are safe if inconvenienced in Minneapolis/St. Paul! (At least so far as I've heard yet.) I was offline last night, and not watching news, either, so it was a bit of a shock and worry this morning.
I support both the semi-sick-day, and the going to the movies. The lack of a/c in my apartment was the main motivating factor getting me to work today!
How's mac doing?
A puggle

I'm glad to hear that all the Minneapolis/St.Paul people are checking in. I have clear memories of the Skoharie Creek Bridge I-90 collapse and how scary it was to see the site afterwards. (My father was one of the engineers who investigated.) The I-35W bridge is a much, much larger disaster and my heart goes out to everyone.
OK, that is one cute puppy. There's one shot where she looks like she's about to mount her campaign for world domination.
Happy Anniversary, MM & Aimee!
Happy Anniversary to the Miracleborns!!
Also-- a PUGGLE!!!!!!1!!!
I mainlined 2 seasons of Dr. Who in 2 weeks, was broken, and then started on the second season of Twin Peaks. I now keep imagining Dale Cooper as the Doctor with Audrey (or Sheriff Truman) as his companion.
mac is almost completely off the prescription pain killer which is awesome. The week has gone by really fast though and I am not sure he is ready for full days back at summer school. I think I will talk with the parentals tonight about staying longer and maybe starting him back for half-days next week.
Glad to hear he's swiftly recovering! It's awesome your parents can help out.
Yay mac.
OMG, I came into work all raring to go, got a couple of things done, but now I am CRASHING.
