Giles, if you would like to get by in American society, then you are going to have to follow our traditions. You're the patriarch. You have to host the festivities, or it's all meaningless.

So, I'm watching the Bones repeat, and they keep saying Anacostia like "ana-coss-cha." That's not right, right, DC peeps?

um, no.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

THANK you. I was starting to doubt myself.

We have a Sick Day Bank. I think you only have to have collected 10 sick days in order to join.

It's very snowy here. Kind of nice. It started pretty much as I was leaving work and hasn't stopped since.

I remember the crazy days. 500 posts an hour. Nubmer! Natgbsb

I think we have 5 sick days a year and I never have extra. I think I rolled over vacation going into 2006 so that I could have more time off for mac-getting, but that may be the only time.

related - mac and I met in person 1 year ago today. WHEE!
