wow Susan, you took all the wind out of my grumbly commute, and mine included almost hitting a motorcycle cop.
I'm home now. Safe & sound. And I somehow managed to kick off my shoes & over-launching one deep under the bed into the land of dust bunnies. eeeew.

I'm glad that "almost" is in there!
I just saved all my venting until my post. I patiently read my book (a bio of Marco Polo) on the bus, and didn't even swear when I had to wait through multiple cycles of a light on the way from the park & ride to daycare.
well, glad you got a good letter from the boss, Susan. and sorry for the bad commutes.
I grew up with reading and math groups. I never did understand why I wasn't in the first reading group. Math was easy to see, but reading was harder. I never could spell.
I don't have rodents in the house.
My meara, let me show you it.
Plei, I'm so sorry to hear about your aunt.
Tell me I'm being too sensitive and to focus on what's important.
I’m not going to tell you that you’re being too sensitive. You’re under huge amounts of pressure, hon. Hang in there. {{{Sox}}}
Susan, that’s great news about the email from your boss.
KT, sorry I missed the snuggle-fest with you last night, I offer a belated version. How long is ND away for? Ya need some company Friday-Sunday?
Omnis, he comes back Sunday morning. And yeah, I might be up for something on Saturday. Let’s chat soon.
I have a second interview today at 2:00, and a different second interview for a different job tomorrow at 1:30. GAH.
WOOT! Go, JZ! Job~ma! Please keep us posted.
Like everyone in SoCal, we have roof rats who live in the trees outside.
ACK! Okay, I wish I didn’t know that.
Which is to say, your teachers may have been not so much trying to crush your spirit and make you conform as not have worked out how to deal with extra needs. Or, you know, they may have been all "It works for everybody else, kiddo, so shut up and deal!" Quite possible, really.
Emily is really right. I try to differentiate, but sometimes I just can’t. I tend to use the “offer assignments that can be taken to different levels” approach. It’s easiest.
I feel like if someone on our end had returned one of these phone calls a few days ago to explain the delay things wouldn't have escalated. But, no one else was dealing with these phone calls. Just me. They called 3 times yesterday and were almost yelling. It's a very upsetting position to be put in. And I've been trying to be as honest as possible, without being too honest but all that did was have the company stop just short of calling me a liar.
Askye, I’m so sorry you had such a crap day. Bosses being stupid and causing unnecessary problems seems to be in vogue this week.
Oh grand. My landlord thinks it was probably a roof rat. Which means there are probably RATS IN MY ATTIC.
Ack! More rats! No more rats!
THE CAR IS IN MY NAME!!!!!!!!!!!
Congrats, vw!
Happy Birthday, sumi!
My dog seems to have an abscess. I've only had him five days and I've already broken him.
Aw, Ginger, the poor pup! So not your fault, though. He’s a lucky pup to have you. Cute name, too!
Sorry about the traffic, Susan and Omnis. My commute home sucked, too.
My day sucked a lot, but I just don’t have the energy to write about it right now.
Long ago, Joe gave Em his Superman "doll". Not action figure - this is mostly cloth.
For her 1st birthday, Sean and S gave her a Batman "doll".
These have been her two favorite toys lately and she has been taking them to bed with her.
She tucks them in, says, "G'night Ba-man. G'night Soopman."
And then she makes them kiss each other.
I'm glad that "almost" is in there!
you and me both! Silly guy cutting across 3 lanes as I was merging into the lane he was wanting in. Almost didn't see him coming.
She tucks them in, says, "G'night Ba-man. G'night Soopman."
And then she makes them kiss each other.
BWAHHAHAHAHAHAHA! Wow, if that isn't the sign of a Buffista spawn.
Finally home and at the end, although I mostly skipped.
Happy Birthday, Sumi! If it really is your birthday! Don't want to flub up again.
Plei, I'm sorry to hear about the loss of your Aunt.
Sox, 7 months along is no problem for me, pass away! Also, what time do you want me to come over tomorrow?
Today I did my 2 miles on a treadmill, thanks to sucky rainy weather. Me no likey. But, it's nice to know it's there in a pinch.
BWAHHAHAHAHAHAHA! Wow, if that isn't the sign of a Buffista spawn.
And yet, I got glared at. Like I've been reading her Bruce/Clark instead of "Pajama Time" and "Hey Wake Up!"
Of course, there is that one line I read as "You're too big to use the swings. You should go do big gay things." Bet that did it.
Plei, I don't think I expressed my condolences- I am sorry for your loss.
and Sox, so sorry for your loss, too.
( why did I hit post before I finished?)
