We're very stretchy. - Connie Neil

I'm excited that it's supposed to get up to the low 20s tomorrow. And then 39 by Sunday, and stay up there until Tuesday, at least!! It was so frigid on the way to the pool this afternoon that I thought I'd never stop shivering. I am sooo ready for spring, and it's going to be at least another six weeks of this winter crap.

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.

Go Kathy!

it's going to be at least another six weeks of this winter crap.

Yep, about 37 days and 21 hours, according to my Spring widget. But only two and a half weeks to the end of meteorological winter, so, yay!

Bob's learned to live with tragedy, but he knows that this tragedy is one that won't ever leave him or get better.

I just checked the weather one last time and the temperatures, I can handle. The wind, sure. The whatevers. The newest joy? High pollen count. Pine.

Hysterical, right? Yeah, I am not laughing either.

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

I bought an electric eraser today. They have ones that cost ~$10, ~$50, and ~$100. The first one I bought in the first bracket didn't work at all and goes back tomorrow. The second one, still in the first bracket, works...it works. So it stays. I really want one from another bracket. They must be magical. What I should have bought was a magnifying glass. Then I could do crazy miniatures like this. Because it's obviously a magnifying glass standing between me and success.

I don't understand an electric eraser... but the crazy miniatures are crazy small.

My onerous tasks today were figuring out how to use my regional center billable hours so that I can maintain Grace's Medi-Cal EPSDT in order to continue to have nursing.

I should also have called the pulmonary lab but fuck it.

I'm so damn tired.

I don't understand an electric eraser

When I was drafting it was a god-send! I erased a lot!

I played with crazy expensive electric erasers left over from drafting for APO projects. When the site was just a trailer, not a 3.5 m, 1 m and Sloan Telescope. Man, blast from the past.

A dress should be tight enough to show you're a woman but loose enough to flee from zombies. — Ginger

My onerous task today was everything from waking up at 4:30 on.

And now I am showered, am going to read a magazine and hopefully be asleep by 9:30.

I AM A ROCK GOD.

I have a lot of erasing to do, and I want it clean.

I'm currently negotiating with my sister to see which of her exes I can sleep with. It's a longer conversation than you'd imagine.

I did one of my onerous tasks. Therapy was hard today. I may not finish my other onerous task (writing the proposal) tonight, because after talking to the therapist about all my projects, and all of the Stuff I Constantly Think About, she very pointedly asked when I relaxed and gave my brain down time. Er? In the bath? Sometimes? When I'm not writing in a notebook or fretting about the things I should be doing, but haven't?

Man, this mental health thing is HARD. Repressing like a Winchester is way easier. Not healthier, but easier.
