please tell me Jezebel isn't going to do the same.
Oh, they will. Sucks.
Good on Grace!
Happy birthday, Olivia!

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

Good to hear about Grace!
Happy bday, Olivia! What a great present! OH! That reminds me, Cashmere, did you send invitations to something called "Shop it to me?" I got something that says it's from you.

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.
OK, I get to go home. I think I will nap.

Yay for Grace! And happy birthday Olivia!
ION, our landlord has just noticed that we've been withholding a small portion of our rent for four months now. This despite the fact that we've enclosed a note every month with our check, saying "Here's a list of the repairs we need you to make [which we have repeatedly asked him to make for well over a year now]. We will happily pay you the money we owe you once those repairs are underway." SHOCKING that in the voicemail he left for M, he didn't mention the repairs. Grr.

Ann, that's a ferret.
Thanks for the info, folks!

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
Huh. Now they are letting us go at 3:30. I'm not sure what to do about that, since I'm sure my shuttle will be on its regular schedule.

I'm glad to hear Grace's surgery went well.
I've gotten those Shop it to me invitations before, one from a former student intern (whom I was pretty sure wouldn't be sending one to me) and one from a person whose name I didn't recognize. I assumed they were spam.
Kate, I swear your landlord must be perpetually stoned.

I remember the crazy days. 500 posts an hour. Nubmer! Natgbsb
I am going to try and be a good role-model for mac today and not just sit around, so I am calling chore day, not necessarily onerous, but I may hit some of those. Thus far:
made pumpkin muffins
washed dishes
cleaned up clutter in livingroom
Now:
cleaning off the desk

Kate, I swear your landlord must be perpetually stoned.
It's really the most likely explanation, isn't it?
Man, now I want some pumpkin muffins.

Nice juxtaposition.
