I’m responsible for my own happiness? I can’t even be responsible for my own breakfast! (Bojack Horseman)

Tomorrow, we are meeting with a realtor to discuss getting this place sold ASAP. Then going to Goodwill to drop off a bunch of clothes, and out for dinner. Sunday, we drive to CT and talk to my family about possibly moving to New Orleans. Monday, Tom has a dentist appointment. (we both have the day off.) Also probably giving the NOLA company his decision.

Woven throughout the weekend will be weighing the pros and cons of accepting this job and moving to New Orleans. Also, going through and cleaning the shit out of the house.

Cats to become a rabbit should gather immediately now here

Speaking of your trivia, I looked at those pictures, and while a couple of them look MAD familiar, I can't ID any of them, even with judicious googling, Cash

Me three.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

I'm wicked annoyed that I have to work Monday -- I even have actual meetings in the morning, so I can't even sneak out to see the Marathon.

Happy birthday, Callaluna!

This weekend I'll be doing some gardening and probably watching some Supernatural. I haven't really watched SPN since season 2, so there's a fair bit of catching up to do. I also hope to get a bit of biking in and a run to the farmers' market. Also, Sunday I'm going on a local garden tour with some friends. So it'll probably be a tad busy, but with good things.

this mess was yours / now your mess is mine

What are people doing this weekend?

Going out of town for a weekend of debauchery (kink event). Mostly I'm looking forward to a hotel bathroom so I can take a bath in a tub that doesn't want to kill me. Also 24/7 air conditioning so my allergies don't want to kill me (get thee behind me, pollen). The kink is just a bonus.

Oooh, and cable TV in the hotel room! Sabado Gigante on Univision!

(I fail at kink. I love hotels.)

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.

High School Game Forfeited After Three Innings, 45-0 Lead

A baseball game in Wisconsin was called off after three innings this week when Three Lakes High School rand up a 45-0 lead against Phelps High School.

"It was kind of embarrassing. I feel bad," Three Lakes coach Jeff Liebscher told the local newspaper.

When I see scores like 45-0 in high school sports, I always feel like it's got to be poor sportsmanship on the part of the winning team, and one detail in the local newspaper account -- the fact that Three Lakes stole 11 bases in the first inning -- makes me think this was another such case.

On the other hand, from all indications, the Phelps High School team is just really, really bad.

For one thing, Three Lakes entered the game with a 1-2 record, and lost its previous game 15-0. So this wasn't some powerhouse team beating up on Weak Sisters of the Poor. This was a mediocre team beating up on a team that would probably lose to Weak Sisters of the Poor.

So you finally got in touch with your Mom? Good to know. Hope the job works out for Tom. I'll be sad to see you guys go (my only Salem peeps!), but I know how much you want this.
