Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

We're really not getting let go early today. I'm annoyed! But shouldn't be! I hate when things usually happen, but in an unofficial way.

We never have had an unofficial early leave (well, some people may leave early, but they record it as such.) It's always official, which means it only occurs in cases of national disaster or local extreme weather. Or when the power goes out.

oh joy! Oh Rapture ! I have a brain!

Dh once call AAA for a jump - we aren't members. They couldn't help - they had too many members ahead of him, so they gave him a number of a tow truck company. So AAA can be helpful even when you aren't a member.

this weekend - moving some furniture and stuff out of the dinning room in order to start the new dinning room /kitchen floor. but not sure how far we are going to ge twith that . DH needs to rest some after a 12 day work week

You know, we could experiment and cancel football.

I'm headed up to the Bay Area for my uncle's surprise 80th birthday party. Should you really have a surprise party for an 80 year old? He is in ridiculously good shape for his age and most would think he was in his late 60s, but still...

Librarian Warlord

I just told my people that I was officially looking the other way and that they should get out of here.

I wish my boss would do the same for me, but his Son-in-Law was graduated in the class today, so he's not paying attention to us poor, worky folks.

Also, I cut Sam Alito off at the bar so I could get a refill of my glass of wine, but one of his Secret Service agents wasn't watching where he was going and spilled my first glass.

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.

Quick, everyone - what are you working on right this second?

I have discovered this:

"Cry havoc and let slip the boobs of war!" -- Miracleman

Har! Call in an anonymous tip that he's a lush.

Things not to do at 4:30 on a holiday weekend -- Remember that the catering people have not confirmed the order for Tuesday and call to confirm. Now, I just have to take what they have in the kitchen. I said I just needed a protein, a starch, and a vegetable.

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

Right this second I am putting entries in the change log. Well, I was before tommy distracted me. Now I'm typing on the web and thinking about shiny chocolate fountains.

Quick, everyone - what are you working on right this second?

Time entry for an attorney, Fed-Exing a package, and google mapping my way to Emmett's tournament.
