I don't consciously quote anything. Or rather, I probably do, but I have no idea where I got the phrase.

So this morning there was a note on my door from the tenants next door thanking me for shoveling their walk and steps, and that they have muffins for me! I like living next to baking college students. They're gone right now or I'd claim them, happily! Also, some jackass parked in their 2 cleared out spots. Straddling them. Not a neighbor car. Hopefully moved before they come home. There are unwritten rules, people.

I still have a bad attitude towards work. I'm tired of it. I think it might partly be the Jan/Feb blahs, layered with trauma. I left early.

I quote everything all the time. Between that and the sarcasm, I don't know how people who aren't involved in pop culture understand anything I say.

Can you take some time off, sarameg? Heaven knows you've earned it. Also, yay muffins.

I need to, but given my vacation balances and schedule, I kinda don't want to use it to stay home and mope and planning anything makes me screamy.

I could take mental health days (sick day balance is ridiculous) and my bosses are pro-mental health days. But I'm so BUSY.

Do you get an actual weekend of not working, now?

Good lord, watching Off the Map. You do NOT get to carry a baby to term in the Peace Corps (not any more), much less would the Peace Corps make you stay in country until you're about to pop .

I'm not going to make it through many more episodes, especially when my ten-yo wilderness first aid certification and obsessive reading of "Where There is No Doctor" can poke holes in their medical treatment.

Yep. I CAN'T work because they're shutting off the power to repair the UPS. Which means bringing everything up Monday.

On quotes: My sister and brother and I can crack each other up quoting stuff that was our own made up slang from the year we were all in Community College together.

This same sister tries as hard as she can to earworm me at every opportunity. I don't talk that much so I can't be sure what I'm quoting the most, but I recognize almost everything that has been quoted here.

Well, I hope that much of a break helps some, sara.

I continue to be very pleased with my latest batch of challah. Nom.

Hooray! I was just thinking I was a little hungry, and then I remembered I just made zucchini bread! And I did squeeze out the thawed shreds, and it did turn out great.
