You know what's onerous? The first week in August, which has NO summer camps available. Not the county, not private, not even the YMCA. School starts August 8, not August 1, and not everyone wants to take that week off, summer camp people!

I think "green queen" might have a different connotation these days....

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

I didn't realize they had muffaletta until I had already committed to the jambalaya! It's a good thing the guy told me it was spicy, because I would have put hot sauce on before tasting it, and it is SPICY.

I’d be lying if I didn’t say that I miss them all tonight…

Font people: Is Bleeding Cowboy cliche for a title font?

Nope. What's funny is that I looked at it, thgouht "that style looks familiar", went to dafont.com, and yup. I've downloaded 2 fonts from that designer already.

Onerous task today: cleaning this bloody house.

Man, now I want jambalaya and mufaletta and king cake and polish doughnuts!

Instead I am frantically rearranging my whole week for the SECOND TIME, because someone in the corporate office is SMOKING CRACK. And it means I have a friend who is coming in Thursday night, and I'm going to be all "Sorry! I gotta go, flight at 6:45AM tomorrow! Won't be home til after time to have any fun Friday night!" ARGH.

(ETA: Plus I'm on hold trying to get the travel agency and I hate being on hold)

Remember that the frontier of the Rebellion is everywhere. And even the smallest act of insurrection pushes our lines forward.

Elizabeth Carey Smith of The Letter Office charted her progress in the subway while pregnant and presented the results in graphic form.

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

Thanks Tommy and msbelle. The reason I am afraid that it might be the BBs is that I woke up both last thursday and yesterday with itchy spots on my back, and those are the two days I woke up too hot and took my night shirt off. Yesterday's also look like they might be BB bites.

I pulled my bed apart yesterday though, and didn't see anything, so I think I am just going to wash all my sheets in super hot water and hope for the best, unless I get more bites.

eta:

Perkins is there a time today I can call or IM with you about the bugs

IM tonight would be great, if you will still be up about 7:30 my time or later

Now let us crush something soft and watch it fountain blood. That is a girlish thing to want to do, yes?

Performance reviews are onerous enough to count for the whole day. I declare you all fabulous!!
