Because books.

Dog. Way not to be a good houseguest. Yikes.

Edited because this dog clearly ain't a god.

I'm especially pissed because I made the cupcakes for the birthday TWICE already (the first batch, made with CI recipe in all of its fussiness had burnt bottoms. Our oven temp must be off!) and now I have to make YET ANOTHER batch.

Am. Not. Amused.

“Not dead yet!”

EEEE!!! Just received my Sting tickets in the mail. Oh, June, why must you be so far off??

And eek, Kat! Bad dog. And poor you.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

Good lord, Kat. I'd be going to the store next.

sigh.

Also, I'm extremely peeved because a student who wanted to be in academic decathlon and was subsequently moved was told she had to return to her advisory because the other teacher was refusing the move and won't sign her out.

REALLY? REALLY? This teacher (whose husband and brother also work at the school --- hellloooooo nepotism!) gets the right to dictate a kid's extra curricular activity? My team's theory is that the teacher was offended and her feelings were hurt that she wasn't consulted or that the students don't want to be in leadership anymore. Am I insane or is this just idiotic?

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?

Good heaven, Kat. Dog belongs outside only as it is obvious he does not know how to behave inside. I would be furious.

Aside from his potential for further destruction, I think the dog needs to be an outside dog at least for a while because what goes into the dog eventually comes out of the dog.

Our wings are not tired.

Kat, I'd be furious. And if I lived closer, I'd come help you make the third batch.

Jesse, I need to get back to Boston. To see you and finally meet all of the other lovelies there (before, ahem, some of them move to NO!).

We won’t stop until everyone is gay.

I bought groceries. Now to turn them into food. Up for tonight is an eggplant pasta dish. Debating whether to addground beef. More protein but... more work.

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

Huh. I was just the first person to look up "futless" on wordnik. I don't think I've ever had a wordnik first before. Though now I'm tempted to try it out with Patois.

I had no idea it was Hawaiian. Where the hell did I pick that up?

Kat, I can't quite see why a teacher would prevent a kid from doing academic decathlon. It would irritate me.
