"In the equation E = mc⬧, c⬧ is a pretty big honking number." - Scola

I was so hoping for a snow day today. Instead, I got a conk on the head and a broken copier. So the day did not start out well, and instead of "This semester is going to be ALL DIFFERENT starting with these worksheets we're going to do together!" I did, "Okay, so, I want you to experiment with this command and, stuff. But tomorrow there'll be worksheets! And math!"

I'm terrifically busy with my ennui.

Shit's all sorts of different now.

I wonder who paid for the car?

The article said further down that she bought it.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

Go team ita's reading comprehension. I'm sure I'll have a great day at work.

I scrolled through pages of inane comments and was saddened to see that no one referenced Disaster Area.

Or at least I think no one did.

Eh. It's Monday. I only looked for it because you asked and then I wondered. I think it's high-larious. Mostly because when I was 17 I found a pint of run in my car and got scared about it until I realized it was my mother's.

"Look, son, if it's good enough for Shirley Bassey, it's good enough for you."

Matilda work up in an unreasonably cheerful mood. So we maximized the moment by putting her in a Hanna Anderson dress and tights so she is both cheerful and supercute. So far we've successfully leveraged the Mondayness.

No snow in SF. It's cool and bright though. None of this gray drizzly biz.

"I keep to a strict diet of ill-advised enthusiasm and heartfelt regret." Leigh Bardugo

It's a monday. Feh.

I'm jealous of all of you snow-day havers. I'd like a snow day. Unfortunately, we don't get sunny days off and today looks to be good and hot.

Supercheerful moods rock! I was with Grace when she woke up at 5:00 this morning and she looked at me like, "Hi lady. What are you doing here?" I sat her up and she smiled and smiled and smiled. Then I held her and she wound back to sleep. Getting her from my arms to the crib without waking her and without disconnecting her vent is a trick.

Yay, heat! Well, okay, it's in the 70s at least. I don't have many "winter" dresses, and most of my light sweaters are in the laundry, and I am lazy.
