This is so random, but sometimes I am a genius. I was just thinking about wanting to go Fall clothes shopping "in town" (in my old neighborhood), and was thinking it would be most efficient to go before a massage appointment. I just looked, and my next massage appointment is a week from Saturday at 3pm! Could not be more perfect!
When you look back at this, in the three seconds it'll take you to turn to dust, I think you'll find the mistake was touching my stuff.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

We won’t stop until everyone is gay.
Nobody wants to be a poster girl, smonster.
You know I'm tempted to start spamming with political stuff. How ya like me now, friendslist? While I've got your attention...

If you're interested in getting angry about the RNC convention, I present to you Mr. Charlie Pierce: [link]

And then Ortus came and said "It's Ortin' time" and they all Orted off into the sunset
I just got the best news - the director of Dylan's old daycare (where we'll be sending Aeryn in January) is starting up an afterschool program AND she will be offering pickup from his school!!!
This means we only have to cover 4-5 weeks of childcare in Nov-Dec for Aeryn (our babysitter is having a baby), which we can probably do with the uber-spendy daycare at DH's office. I'm so relieved I can't even tell you.

"already on the kiss-cam with Karl Marx"-
Cool...I only lasted about five minutes. Ryan makes me want to hit things(Gotta be honest--mostly him. But maybe something I like would be collateral damage.)

Jesse,
I have been reading Pierce daily since about March. He is about 40% responsible for helping me keep my rage in check.

Yay Jess!
He is about 40% responsible for helping me keep my rage in check.
I had pretty well checked out, so he is building my rage back up!

"And to be clear, I am the hell. And the high water."
Steve Benen over at the Maddow Blog has been doing incredibly impressive work this year as well. Less gifted with turn of phrase than Pierce (but really who else could coin "hollow eyed granny starver" about Paul Ryan).

My roommate forced me to turn on the convention last night, but we did at least watch MSNBC and not on fox like she suggested.
Thanks for the birthday wishes! I'm glad to hear Smonster and Nora are doing well (and yay for the Internet and 3G and all that jazz!)
Yay also for massages and babysitting and other yays!

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
Happy birthday, meara!
I can't believe I asked a project manager to add "Gwen Cooper" to the list of people who can book time against his project.
Yeah, we have a Gwen. Her surname is not Cooper. Didn't realise I'd done that wrong until just now.
And, if you'd asked me what the character's surname was, I'd have told you I didn't remember.
