Where'd they get CAT scan from?... I mean, did they test it on cats? Or does the machine sort of look like a cat?

Our wings are not tired.

ita, sounds like a functional resume as opposed to a chronological one might be the answer. That is, if you really wanted the job. I get so sad when I think of you moving back to Jamaica, even though I've never met you face-to-face. I know that makes me silly.

Cashmere, I didn't know your mother was a compulsive gambler. Runs in my family and it sucks. I'm sorry hon.

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

The recruiter called back and asked for an introductory note asking for my experience in the fields required. I find a lot of these recruiters want me to parrot the language in the job req. I hate to think I'm being too naive thinking that people looking to hire actually read resumes--I know I did, and my experience is really clearly and extensively laid out. 3/4 of the resume talks about what the recruiter's interested in--just not all up front. Still, on the first page.

I'm not calling you silly! I don't want to go back either.

Now tagless for your comfort.

DH's flight home has been cancelled and Owen got off the bus feeling sick.

I didn't buy enough chocolate.

"Faded like the lilac, he thought."

Oh, Cash, this is all just no good!

Now tagless for your comfort.

DH just called. He's going to try to book a different flight. If he can't, he'll rent a car in Chicago and drive home. Stupid weather. Stupid airlines.

Because books.

Oh, Cash, MAN. That is beyond sucky. And it's horrible to think your winter is going on longer than *ours* even.

Cash, I don't think there is enough chocolate.

I think after a dinner of fish fingers and mac & cheese, the kids and I will bake some chocolate chip cookies. It may very well provide us with a)distraction and b)yummy comfort.

Why did Darth Vader cross the road? To get to the Dark Side!

I think that's an excellent plan, Cash.

Franny's school is having an open house tonight. I made chocolate chip cookies for the bake sale. I wish I could just eat them myself.

My house is a pit and it is making me crazy. I lost one of my regular cleaning weekends, so it is build up. I did manage to run the vacuum then, but I really need to start doing it once a week because of the extra litter flinger.

And my back has been crawling for 2 weeks now, and probably will continue to what with work plus house hunting and it is just annoying. I hate feeling my skin crawling. It's better than actual pain, but still.
