That's good of your mechanic, Hec. Hope you guys can make it work somehow.
Scrappy, Sue is right. We are not our jobs. We are SO MUCH more than our jobs.

Now tagless for your comfort.
Scrappy, I can totally empathize. I don't want to feel ungrateful for being able to stay home with kids but the drudgery involved in keeping house and doing mundane things for a living can seem draining on your self esteem.
I can at least fall back on this.
I just realized roller derby is my mid-life crisis.

We won’t stop until everyone is gay.
Normally Scrappy is wise, but not in this instance--you are vibrant and smart and on top of shit, not middle-aged and frumpy or passed-over.
Absolutely what meara said!
I just realized roller derby is my mid-life crisis.
Could be way worse!!
Hec, that's wonderful, and I hope you find a way to get it repaired.
Xposting from the business thread - I'm putting together slides for the recycled glass Mardi Gras beads pitch and I'd really like to have watermark images of bottles on one half and recycled glass beads on the other. Don't want to just gank people's photos, don't know if this qualifies for Creative Commons since I could win some money from it and/or eventually make money. Anyone got good and preferably free sources for stock photos, and/or guidance on the Creative Commons thing?
Many thanks...
eta nevermind, Dana's got me!

Wait, is this real-world child support, where the money goes to buy food for the kids, or MRA fantasyland child support where the women just buy Ferraris and cocaine? -Jessica
We are not our jobs. We are SO MUCH more than our jobs.
I dunno. My job is awesomer than I am as a general rule.

Ginger,
I believe you are correct. That is why I am choosing to watch "The Sing Off."

I remember the crazy days. 500 posts an hour. Nubmer! Natgbsb
Scrappy, remember that anniversary you recently has at work? The one where the gave you A FREAKING iPAD!! and said the very true and unsolicited stuff ABOUT HOW YOU ARE AWESOMENESS SMOTHERED IN COMPETENCE AND TOPPED WITH A LAYER OF COOLNESS?!? Yeah. That. Also, we love you and we do not love cruddy nogoodskies.
Allyson, your job is not gorgeous, does not have fabulous hair, is not wonderfully snarky, and has not written 2 books.

Because books.
le_nubian, did I miss the Deltones? My mom's alma mater is University of Delaware.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
I dunno. My job is awesomer than I am as a general rule.
Puh-leeze. Some awesome things go on at your job, sure, but you are so awesome just as one person!

"And to be clear, I am the hell. And the high water."
Well, I'm about 1 hour behind, so I didn't miss it, but you might have. I think NBC will put it on the website.
