Happy birthday, Barb!!!!
I'm so evil and... skanky. And I think I'm kinda gay.

A dress should be tight enough to show you're a woman but loose enough to flee from zombies. — Ginger

Sometimes I think I might just move up to Vermont, open a bookstore or a vegan restaurant. Adam Schlesinger, z''l

It's nice to see some brave pretenders trying to make it interesting.
Happy Birthday, Barb!

I think that I proved a really cool result today. I need to look at it some more, but I think that it even makes one of my older results much easier to prove, too.

You should know I'm a big deal in the Resistance.

OK, just sent a message directly to the rheumatologist, to see if he can see me earlier than the scheduling people say he can. If not, then I'm not sure what I'll do.

“Not dead yet!”
Oof-- thanks guys, for the birthday happies. Finally got out of my pajamas and went for barbeque at Mojo's Southern Blues Kitchen. Had Smoked Chicken Nachos as an appetizer and the chipotle barbeque smoked wings (also an appetizer) as my main.
Browsed at the bookstore, came home and had cupcakes from Three Sisters bakery- mine was a Boston Cream cupcake. Now I'm back in my jammies and tucked in bed watching the ball game. Good day.

That man was going to shank me. Over an omelette. Two eggs and a slice of government cheese. Is that what my life is worth?
Happy birthday, Barb! Sounds like a lovely day and now I want a Boston Cream cupcake.

Oh, and also? Someone has to invent the alarm clock that will allow you to regret unsnoozing the snooze button, 3 seconds after you thought you're giving in and getting up
Hah! I totally need this--an alarm that after I turn it off will beep at me a few minutes later in case I fell back asleep. But I need it to be unpredictable so I don't COUNT on that as a final snooze alarm...
Am checking in briefly from the Seattle airport on my way to San Francisco. Or, Pleasanton, really, tonight. Have work that needs doing. Should be doing it. Sigh.
Should eat dinner while I'm here, but am not yet hungry, even though I haven't eaten real lunch, because I snacked like mad on the plane...
Speaking of which, can I get a ruling from Buffista parents? So, there was this toddler/baby on the row behind me (I'm guessing right around 2 years, maybe just under). Parent on either side of the aisle. And she cranked and screamed through most of the flight--shrieking during parts of it. And I was really shocked when I kept looking back and she was cranking and yelling a bit, and Dad was...reading a book. While holding her. Not jiggling her, not entertaining her...neither parent seemed to have anything to entertain her with (toys, books, cheerios), they had one sippy cup of milk, and that was it. I heard no songs, no patty-cake, maybe one attempt of walking her up and down the aisle...it's not just my un-childed state that makes me find this abnormal, correct?

I think it's good form to make a visible attempt to try to quiet a child in that case, though it often doesn't work anyway. But you can't look nonchalant while making everybody else suffer.
