Because books.

Depending on the number of people participating, we could set a limit on books per person, I think.

Things I am chanting today-- "My own washer/dryer, my own washer/dryer". "My own garage, my own garage" and "gas stove, gas stove".

Very good things to chant. And your neighbor needs to fucking relax.

Paging Plei! This shirt is screaming to be owned by you: [link]

Meara, congrats on the house.

So I had a huge fuck up. Apparently I didn't call the preschool back fast enough and they gave Noah's spot away already.

Yeah. You called yesterday. I called you back this morning. What?

“Not dead yet!”

Roaring Forties Blue Cheese.

Nom.

Also, I received my Nubar order. I now have a top coat, a base coat, and a ragingly obnoxious purple. Next, I will have to cease being lazy and actually apply said polishes to my toeses.

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

Kat, my god, this weekend?? Shit, time flies.

eta: SERIOUSLY??? What did the preschool expect???

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

WTF, Kat?

WTdoubleF, meara??

FFS, people.

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

What? That's TROLL LOGIC.

Because books.

Troll logic indeed. They don't give you at *least* 24 hours?!

Heh. Things I am chanting today-- "My own washer/dryer, my own washer/dryer". "My own garage, my own garage" and "gas stove, gas stove".

I still do that. And pet them.

Now tagless for your comfort.

I should stay off of Facebook. I'm starting to hate people more than I usually do.

Kat, WTF? They don't hold your spot for one day???

I have money burning a hole in my PP account. I need to buy a cool t-shirt.

Well, she did say she'd appreciate a call back on the day of to let her know either way. And she left a message at all three numbers she has for us.

But yeah.

I'm sort of agog.

K was pissed, which is ironic because K is not convinced that the school is the right choice (commute, expense, etc). I don't know. The preschool woman said that she is pretty sure she'll have 2 openings because she has two families at the school already who are waiting to hear about kindergartens and she thinks they'll move on. But until then we are in limbo.

This makes it more compelling to register at the montessori closer to home that (1) has longer hours (2) has a not as nice site (3) will take Noah even if he never learns to not pee in his pants which seems like a possibility.

Also, have I mentioned that the IEP which is legally supposed to take place before Grace's bday on saturday has to be postponed because they have her birthday wrong in the system and she hasn't even been assessed yet. And they won't assess her until April 17th.

I'm kinda bordering on livid.
