Buffy: He ran away, right? Giles: Sort of, more. turned and swept out majestically, I suppose. Said I didn't concern him. Buffy: So a mythic triumph over a completely indifferent foe? Giles: Well, I'm not dead or unconscious, so I say bravo for me.

this mess was yours / now your mess is mine

It *really* is. He's so thrilled.

The one downside -- which is not related to his career at all -- is that he was going to be visiting Cincy in 3 weeks. We just talked about it on Sunday. And I had been getting more and more excited to see him, and then when John and Jen gave him this new position, he had to cancel his trip, because he has a fuckton of work to do before he can vacate the kitchen.

I was okay with it last night, because I was so excited about his job, but today? I woke up thinking how sad I was that he won't be able to visit. Damn it.

It's weird to be 100% thrilled for him and 100% sad for me.

(Also, he told me last night how much he loves Ayn Rand, and he wasn't joking. I told him to go piss up a rope.)

"Look, son, if it's good enough for Shirley Bassey, it's good enough for you."

Also, he told me last night how much he loves Ayn Rand, and he wasn't joking.

Just the thing one wants in a manager.

"There are few hours in life more agreeable than the hour dedicated to the ceremony known as afternoon tea."

I went to the PT today. My range of motion and muscle tone are pretty much awful right now, which is not news. So, I'll be going to physical therapy 3 times a week for the next month, including 2 Saturdays because I couldn't find another day to schedule them with my other appointments and babysitting on Fridays. I'm already sore just from her testing my muscle tone today, but she promises me it will get better.

Tea:

Yay, Smonster that is awesome!

BT, sorry to hear that Ryan is sick again. I hope he is feeling better soon.

Well, he *did* describe his new position as "Ass-kicker," so it didn't really surprise me.

Plus, he does love trains.

Life moves pretty fast. You don't stop and look around once in a while, you could miss it.

Nice to see such cool news!

You were a wrong baby who grew up wrong. The wrong kind of wrong. It's better you hear it from a friend.

BT, sorry to hear that Ryan is sick again. I hope he is feeling better soon.

Me too. He slept through the night last night, and was in better spirits, but his fever hasn't come down and he's pretty listless. He's drinking a lot of fluids and showing no signs of dehydration or any other complications, so as long as the fever doesn't climb he should be ok.
