Yeah, my poor folks, they lost power and were all happy because their generator kicked in, but then it quit. So they're getting ready to go through this second wave of storms without knowing what's hitting them. I'm about to call them with the radar info.
Don't worry, we're sure to spot Faith first. She's like this cleavagy slut-bomb walking around 'Ooh, check me out, I'm wicked-cool, I'm five-by-five.'

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
I'm sorry if this is what it took for the sun to come out in Boston....

Oooh, will the sun stay out in Boston? I'm going to be in New England this weekend and it would be nice to leave my raincoat at home...

oh good lordy mclord I am tired. work was a bit better today, but it is still hard to be around so much negative energy. The boss lady has just worked with not-dependable or trustworthy people for so long that she automatically assumes the wrong things have been done and it has morphed into a response from her to disagree/argue almost any suggestion I put forth. Today I worked on just sitting when she was working on something and doing only exactly what she has asked me to do and in exactly the way she asked it to be done. no suggestions, no jumping 3 steps ahead. By the end of the day I was able to ask if I should do a new task and have her agree that would be good.
afternoon/evening/night has been running around and getting papers in order: church dinner, painting for vbs, searching through stuff for a bill and a movie, filling out summer program forms, finding taxes I need to re-sign and mail in, texting friends and family for info to put on emergency contact forms for summer program, trying to figure out why the playlists I want will not synch to my itouch.

tornado folks! be safe!
sparky, the interview was good and I hope the exposure gets you info on Sass!
msbelle, sounds annoying.
Sox, we'll be in Ohio in August.
In other news? 8 teachers at my school have been let go. That's a DAMN lot. One of them was RIFed from the district and is a friend. They have taken her line of AP classes and given one of those classes to a teacher who does not teach and was a Must Place after he told an 8th grader at another school that he should kill himself. AWESOME.
I am trying to ride out this wave of change at work with calmness, but it's not working. At. All. I hope that I can swing a slightly different more beneficial schedule.

Because books.
I skipped to the end recklessly to say Buffistas are awesome, as usual, and I saw FOUR of them today, which was pretty cool.
And P-C, if you're around, I met Mira Grant and got Feed signed (because the guy giving out the next one said I needed to read Feed first), and said, "My friend [P-C] has said incredible things about this book," and she beamed, and said, "YOU KNOW [P-C}?! Awesome!"

Did you see Barb win?! I am so jealous; I would be a book geek and go to that meeting.

Doing a 5K tomorrow. Provided that I can move in the morning after today's workout. I'm trying to think of anything I might be forgetting. I have clothes, a bottled water, almonds, and socks. Running shoes are at my desk at work. I'm picking up my team shirt and bib tomorrow.
I predict that I'll run maybe half of it, considering that I just started this running business and haven't built up any stamina.
