The Little Golden Book of Medically Induced Hallucinations.
Heh. Wonkette has a similar running gag, except they'd call that book A Children's Treasury of Medically Induced Hallucinations.
Get up...get up, you stupid piece of... What did you do that for? What's wrong with you? Didn't you hear a word he said? All of you! You think there's someone just going to drop money on you?! Money they could use?! Well, there ain't people like that. There's just people like me.

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

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
I'm pretty sure you always tip movers, Aims.

Yay mac and knittingness!
And nope, not too late, but my trunk and back seat are full! After bank (OMGWTFCHECK) I dumped stuff off at Goodwill, called my broker and agent to let them know I had the check from the Target parking lot, went in and bought a 3 step stepladder, rolling clothes rack, catlitter for both places (need it here NOW,) a broom an flipflops (I needed a pair) and then hit Petco for a new litterbox and miracle crap (thought about moving one of those here, imagined the logistics, quailed.) Stopped at Panera for a spinach and bacon soufflé and now I'm home, about to leave again.

I am not sure about the movers. I work for Gov't and we don't tip anyone, but our movers are on a standing offer.

I've got to remember to mail my cc bill.
Work Lisa offered to go with me, but honestly, it wouldn't matter if there were a million friends and parents in the room, I'm not going to be aware of them.
Now for all the phone calls and logistics.....

Go sara! Go sara! Go sara! SO EXCITED FOR YOU!
I got called a vigilante teacher. Context: kid who is valedictorian plagiarized and cheated -- on a project and a final respectively in my class, but because of how they figure out cumulative GPA for valedictorians, the D he got this quarter doen't disqualify him. I've been on a tear since then and K pointed out while I can't make him NOT valedictorian, I am in charge of the newspaper.
So my students are writing a giant article after a survey I gave out yielded results.
One of my journalism kids reportedly told another teacher, "You don't mess with Ms. G. I like her. She's cool and everything, but don't mess with her."
Then the teacher said I got ruffled about perceived injustices and I'm a vigilante. She meant it in a non-bad way, I think. But still?
Sigh.
Though it might not be wrong.
