Sir? I'd like you to take the helm, please. I need this man to tear all my clothes off.

All right, I'm heading out of work for the day. Wish me luck on getting home without much trouble.

Safe travels, Frank!

I'm so glad that Grace came out of surgery fine, Kat! I'm vibing hard for her full recovery.

I just got home--yay! Traffic was already busy, the roads were slippery, but at least visibility was all right. Filled up my gas tank on the way home ($3.39--eek!). The worst thing was after I parked in the lot here, when I realized that the wind had blown a several-inch-tall drift right across the sidewalk leading to my building door. It'll be huge by tomorrow! I hope the shovelers come by either late tomorrow night or early Thursday morning to clear everything.

I remember the crazy days. 500 posts an hour. Nubmer! Natgbsb

the desk is 80% cleaner than it was and I made a dent in the kitchen table paper mess also. YAY!

I need to make lunch and then I'll start on something else.

Glad to hear things went smoothly for Grace!

I have gotten to the point that I cringe inwardly any time I see that a cashier is a pretty blonde teenager. So often their skill set seems to be confined to looking sad and helpless until a co-worker comes over to do their job for them.

Ann, that's a ferret.

Good for Grace!

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

Okay, cool! Just wanted to make sure it was legit. I'll have to check it out.

Ditto.

I ran out at exactly 3:30, thanks to a coworker tracking the buses, so we walked out and there it was! Sweet.

The feeling you get when your brain finally lets your heart get in its pants.

I went to work, and even did several onerous paperwork tasks.

And then I came home, and will probably spend the rest of the day in the recliner.

At least I don't have snow.
