For once, I had a lovely group at work celebrating a 50th wedding anniversary. The man of honour reminded me of my dad with all his engineering curmudgeonliness, and they surprised me with how early and efficiently they shut down and cleaned up. The caterer was a bit of a ditz, with his tromping through the flowers as he unloaded the car, and upon being told he was tromping, proceeded to "what?" and fall over the flowers some more. I mean, he literally almost took out the azaleas as well as the deadnettle he was standing in.
Otherwise, a very lovely bunch. Wish they were all like that.
OMG I want to marry this woman and have her babies....

Guy tries to rob a convenience store. Pulls a gun on the clerk. But the 4'9" clerk
attacks him with a three foot long ax!
Aren't you about two feet taller than she is?

That is way cool.
Last night I dreamt I had to put down rising colour/class tensions by killing people. I don't think anyone wanted to marry me, not even the person in the dream being played by Jensen Ackles, sadly. But I had a job to do, to keep the thugs and the racists from making things worse. By shooting them in the head.
Skipping yet again (not having a talking-to-the-internet computer makes me feel like I have to talk with my hands tied behind my back) because, according to the Buffista Calendar, today is DebetEsse'a birthday.
Happy birthday, DebetEsse! With lots of wishes for a great day and a wonderful year!
Oh, and lovely Sundays all around, of course!
I get to wish DebetEsse Happy Birthday in person tonight!
Well, YAY, DebetEsse! Happy Birthday!
My current theory is that after I called my landlord's bluff on the "we're gonna take you to court and evict you" thing, they just decided to ignore me until I go away - i.e. they haven't talked to me or done any treatment since May. (My lease will be up at the end of Sept. so I'll be out then, if not sooner.) Maybe they figure they'll treat the bugs in my apartment once I'm gone.
tommyrot, are you worried about bedbugs hitching a ride in your stuff when you move? Your landlord really is obligated to treat your apartment.
I'm on my way up to my sister's. I was late this morning; I thought I missed my train. But the train was late, too, and now I get to frolic in the sweltering heat with my nieces and nephew. Yay!
And he berates the parents who respect their toddlers' wishes not to be dunked, saying that if you don't do it, your kids will always be afraid of the water.
Are these red cross lessons, Jessica? Because that's diametrically opposite what the RC lessons say. Parent-toddler classes at our pool use lots of songs and Noah is learning to kick and move his hands. Before he moves on to the non-parent-kid classes, he has to "swim" 5 feet unassisted.
