The feeling you get when your brain finally lets your heart get in its pants.

God, I can't believe I spent time and neurons on that...

Thanks for doing it for us.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

Hey, everyone needs a hobby. I was just having a conversation with someone who asked me what I'm into outside of work, and I had no answer.

Uhrg. Just got off the phone. Friend's stepson in juvie for the next 3 months, maybe. Good and bad. Their best hope is getting him into residential inpatient mental health care in the next 9 months, but state funding and beds are limited. Then he turns 18 and they have no options.

Oh crap, sarameg. Here's hoping it all works out.

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

Classes started after Labor Day and ended the last week in May. We got a week for Thanksgiving, 2 weeks at Christmas, and 3 weeks in March. With long weekends in October, February, and April.

Yeah, I think that's literally illegal now.

dammit.

But what is that, like 100 instructional days?

Remember that the frontier of the Rebellion is everywhere. And even the smallest act of insurrection pushes our lines forward.

msbelle, I don't know if you're interested, but the Mets are having a lottery for the opportunity to purchase opening day tickets: [link]

Nobody, really. He's credited as "Masked Teen."

I'm guessing it was "Halloween".

Thanks Tom. I'll register, why not.

I do not feel good this morning. my innerds are not all working well. I am hoping water and coffee help because that is all that sounds good. the coffee actually seems to be helping also. maybe some advil in a minute or two.
