Congratulations to the class of 1999. You all proved more or less adequate.

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

The WestJet prices did look better than Air Canada. I just had good memories of Air Canada, but that was a long long time ago, and business class to boot.

Steve Buscemi is many things. Hunk he is not remotely. Ironic or sarcastic or summat.

I have a work crush on my business users. They just bigged me up for the successful go live and gave me chocolate. But I had the crush on them before that. Mutual lovefest FTW.

Still dead person walking, though.

All sorrows can be borne if you put them into a story. Tell me a story.

Happy birthday to Sophia and smonster!

I'd much rather drive. I can also more easily take my cat when I drive.

Exactly. My KC drive is 9 hours. The door to door time with flying is around 6 hours. With driving, I go on my own schedule, save money on petsitting and airfare, and I have wheels while I'm there.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

If anyone has kids who enjoy Arthur and/or Martha Speaks on PBS, here's a fun game that combines them. [link] It may also be fun for anyone who enjoys playing around with pictures on the computer...

Because books.

Oooh, fun! Sara adores Martha Speaks. She is determined to have a talking dog at some point, I think.

Coding and Sleeping

Shitty introduction to the American Medical Care situation.

Yeah, I feel bad for her.

This election cycle is really making me depressed. I think the Delaware primary may have completed my circle of cynicism.

Okay, I think I may at least be picking a weekend to go visit my best friend. That's something accomplished, right? I mean, aside from the ingestion of chocolate.

And I've picked an airline to fly at that putative time.

God, I want to fall over.

Trust my rage

Yeah, I feel bad for her

I talked to Joe. Apparently they are going to try billing the insurance first as they say it should be covered. Still, it sucks to be 25 years old and have a molar pulled. I also feel a bit guilty because, while she is an adult, I'm sort of like the closest thing she has to a mom here. I suspect my guilt is out of proportion - I think I mostly just feel bad for her.

Isn't this just a way to make sure your kids are prepared for beer pong? [link]
