Lorne: Once the word spreads you beat up an innocent old man, well, the truly terrible will think twice before going toe-to-toe with our Avenging Angel. Spike: Yes. The geriatric community will be soiling their nappies when they hear you're on the case. Bravo.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

Wow, some of those are truly bonkers.

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

today is like the perfect Friday at work. My boss is gone and the phones are being really quiet. I am leaving straight from work for a family thing in AUstin and of course had a million things to do, so I have been able to make calls, send emails, better pack the bags, and now I am doing my nails. I have done all the tasks left for me and have answered all new inquiries. whoot!

5/4/9= working nine hours a day per pay period and one friday off.

Ah, that's what we call a 9/80: you work 80 hours in 9 work days, so I bill 36 hours one week and 44 the next. I love it: in fact, today is my regular day off, so I slept in a bit, went running, started some cookies, and just got back from getting my hair cut.

My regular schedule is 8-5:30, which is still way fewer hours than I worked at the old job, where I regularly stayed until 6:30 or 7PM, and now I get alternate Fridays off. So nice.

My husband works a 9/80 - he loves having every other Friday off. He gets to work at 7 so he's usually out by 6, the same time I leave work. I would love to go to a 9/80 or 4/10 work week but we're 24/7/365 here so no can do. I am so jealous on his Friday's off during the summer, 'cause I'm the only one who has to get up early booo!

Have y'all seen The Mouse That Crawled Up Inside A Man, And Other Urban Legends Of The 17th Century? It's about a 17th century broadsheet that seems to have been a cross between Dear Abby and an urban legend debunker.

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

I found a recipe online today for a sugar cookie cake (not made of, just tastes like). I'm in love.

And yet, you are not sharing.

Today is too busy again, but we got a food truck on the lot again, so I went and stood outside for a bit and now I have tacos.

Oh, James Arness died.

... to be fair, I didn't know he was still alive.

What else besides ramen can you scoop? YOU CAN SCOOP THIS WORLD FROM DARKNESS!

To be fairer, I don't know who he is.
