this mess was yours / now your mess is mine

Saturday, the 23rd, will be Steph L's birthday.

What! She hasn't said anything about it! Where is the countdown??

I know! I got past 40 and the need to count down just died off. Which is not to say I'm one of those people who thinks being over 40 is The End Of All Things and therefore Not Worth Celebrating and that perhaps I should even Lie About My Age -- not at all. I don't give a crap if people know I'm 89 (spoiler: I AM NOT 89), and there WILL be much celebrating come Saturday.

But, for the record: TWO DAYS UNTIL I AM 41 WOO HOO!!!!

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

Which reminds me that I really want to take bacon out of my freezer tonight.

And paint my nails silver, maybe tonight. It should be tomorrow night, but I'm going to have CSA-related cooking to do, and no plans tonight, so.

Every now and then, I think I might actually be a little odd.

Hec, that's fascinating to me. I never thought about underlying structure. (No, I have no education. I am a savage who has learned, reluctantly, to wear shoes.)

ita !, I sympathize with your difficulties. I've spent all day trying to scrape sense out of the empty skulls of my coworkers. (Not literally.)

Bob's learned to live with tragedy, but he knows that this tragedy is one that won't ever leave him or get better.

I've never heard of coywolves before:

I think I saw one. It was a really big and sort of oddly shaped coyote but still totally a coyote, if that makes sense. So, coywolf.

"Look, son, if it's good enough for Shirley Bassey, it's good enough for you."

Heh. Well bear in mind, I did work at Fantagraphics where I got to hear people like Jaime Hernandez talk about going to a nine-panel grid, and where everybody on staff was a huge comics fan and spoke knowledgeably about comics history and structure in a detailed and informed way. That's the kind of education you only get on the job with really talented and smart people.

hip deep in pie

I've never heard of coywolves before

They think that the coyotes in Atlantic Canada are some kind of wolf/coyote hybrid. It was a big deal a few yeas ago when a hiker was killed by a coyote in a national park.

I don't give a crap if people know I'm 89 (spoiler: I AM NOT 89), and there WILL be much celebrating come Saturday.

Pssst, Steph's really 89!!! pass it on.

Because books.

My toes are silver right now, Jesse, AIFG.

The rest of my afternoon is going to be scanning documents and setting up new file structures in my boss' drive for them. The perfect boring low-stress activity I love at work.

I've come to realize this is the kind of job I should have, in all seriousness.
