Damn, that's harsh, Tom. And it's not like they let you make it up the next day, is it? Salaried can be a curse.
San Gabriel fire scar. Depressing and dramatic.

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

Our wings are not tired.
Well apparently #1 son's lack of planning is now my emergency so I am off to get a pair of long khaki pants and a sports physical. He now is on the bowling team as well as basketball and volleyball. I'm hoping the sports physical we got for him in June will work for bowling tomorrow.

Every now and then, I think I might actually be a little odd.
...you need a sports physical for *bowling*?
Even I can bowl.

I wrote something! It's in a public place! I'm freaking out!

Fandom means never having to say "But where would I wear that?"
Timelies all!
We're going to a folk concert tonight in a venue pretty much down the street from us. Should be fun.

Anyone know anything about a gemstone called Larimar? I never heard of it before.

Here's the Wikipedia entry on larimar. Based on an image search it looks lovely with silver.
Great doubles match with the Williams sisters and Zheng/Yan.

I know my own heart and understand my fellow man. But I am made unlike anyone I have ever met. I dare to say I am like no one in the whole world. - Anne Lister
My MiL sells jewelry with Larimar and knows stuff about it, but I can't remember anything. It's very pretty.

I'm terrifically busy with my ennui.
Video of DragonCon's attempt to break the world record for number of people dancing to "Thriller". The dancing's a little ragged, but dude, the costumes.

Days shrink and grow cold, sunlight through leaves is my song. Winter is long.
Would it suck to have the name Dick Hardstaff?
Okay, reading COMMA, and just had to duck in and say, for reals, the actor who played Oliver Wood in the earlier Harry Potter movies is named Sean Biggerstaff.
With Sean being Gaelic for John, Little John and his quarterstaff might really *be* a buck-and-a-half staff. I mean, it just makes you wonder, you know?
