YES! Congrats to the Fleas- I know there's some stressful planning and maneuvering to come, but at least it's in the same country! And it's a place you know already. And it's a job, yay!!

Now tagless for your comfort.

Yay, Fleas! Graeters! Skyline! Teppy!

You were a wrong baby who grew up wrong. The wrong kind of wrong. It's better you hear it from a friend.

Referring to the discussion on reducing Detroit's footprint, there's a similar situation occurring in Australia. The government is restricting essential services to some remote Aboriginal communities in the Northern Territory, concentrating resources on a few growth centres.

Amnesty International is involved in a petition on the issue. If anyone's interested, you can go here: [link]

Cats to become a rabbit should gather immediately now here

Every time we say "Yay Fleas!" I picture the flea family, as, well, fleas, jumping up and down. It is adorable!

Yay fleas!

I'm still sorta stunned/weirded out when I give advice to my teen Miss T on fb and all her friends like or comment thankfully on my post. Dude. Me. Advice for teens. Words that should be never be spoken in the same decade. I was not among my peers and certainly not hers. I was a nerdy weirdo, and still am. But apparently they hear me. Huh.

YAY, Fleas! I'm so happy for you!

ita, that kind of micromanaging would make me crazy. Can you rebel and just do it on Monday: "This is ita moon and it's the week of August 11th. Please leave me a message and I'll blah blah blah..."?

Congratulations, Family flea!

I actually really appreciate it when people update their VM. Possibly because I work with academics who don't keep regular schedules, and expect me (or someone in my dept) to be available to them at all times. If I'm picking up the phone to call them, it's probably time sensitive. If a prof is calling me, they need to be reminded that I go home at night.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

I was a nerdy weirdo, and still am. But apparently they hear me. Huh.

That's because now you're a grownup! And cool.
