Oh, man, Suzi, that's awful. I hope your friend can get her daughter the care she needs to deal with this.
Several weeks ago I saw a play called "Black and Blue Boys" and it was all about sexual (and physical) abuse of boys, by both men and women. It was well done, but also horrifying, especially when the actor took the audience into the mind of one of the pedophiles.
Suzi, that's awful. I can't imagine what that would be like.
ION, I am sitting in a laundromat in Clintonville watching Ellen.
This is the first time I've been in a laundromat in Clintonville in more than 40 years.
The laundromat I'm in used to be a bowling alley when I was a kid.
Oh Suzi, how awful. Poor girl.
It used to drive me crazy on all those early out days when I'd still be doing my usual 10 plus hours.
I have a ton of work to do, but have decided to say fuck it, and take the leave early, and let it slide until Thursday. I finished up the one massively urgent thing around 3pm and said "DONE". Though I still have email on my phone, so I'll see if they respond to the urgent thing with "oh crap"
Also, just volunteered to have BBQ here tomorrow (host's fridge broke). Uh oh. Need to clean house. Like WHOAH. Hope there's still food at the store.
AND, someone might want to adopt our foster cat--we've been asked to bring him in so they can meet! Roomie is upset and trying to decide if she needs to adopt him herself. :)
And I made reservations for an indulgent spa day on Friday. Woot.
They gave all the regular employees here 2 hours off this afternoon, but since I'm a contractor I don't get it. So I'm still here. Not being very productive.
Timelies all!
Happy Birthday sj!
Felt better when I woke up this morning. Guess a good night's sleep(plus a bit of sweating) helped. However, the point where my hip meets my thigh bone hurts whenever I move it. Oh, body, why do you hate me?
I'm still in shock. I never had the chance to get to know the hubby. Between him being very reserved and time away with the Navy, it was never condusive. They live across the Sound from Seattle. I just need to win the lotto so I can get out there.
The winds with the thunderstorms that are moving through the area overturned six tractor-trailers south of town.
I begin to see why I haven't heard back from colleague in Atlanta who is supposed to be sending me something.
How awful, Suzi. Sending hope to that poor girl.
And for you msbelle, sending lambic over the internets. And a nice drink for you too Suela.
