I am sore from packing up two moving pods yesterday so I can work on get our house ready to sell. My DH leaves tonight for two weeks and I may be a little mad at the universe over that bit of timing.

Last night we had dinner with my bff from law school, who is now a Dean. Because of the move/packing I missed my chance to go to Komi with him on Tuesday night, where the bill for 3 people was $900. Your tax dollars Arizona! (Actually billed to his discretionary fund, from alumni dollars.)

Wow.

Well, I'm in the office, where it's grey and chilly, and I have no new email in my inbox. I'm suspicious.

It's Friday, and once again (for the fourth?! time in 6 weeks, counting the funeral) I am headed for NJ and PA. Made a great deal of headway last weekend, but there's a ton more to do....

Safe travels, Theodosia. I hope you make good progress.

Drive safe!

It's autumn, and The Big Picture has some fabulous photos, especially the giant vegetable ones at the end.

A whole lot of Westie puppies.

Dammit, Emmett! Wake up. I'm ready to go to breakfast.

Zazie this morning and pumpkin pancakes.

I'm always suspicious when that sort of thin happens, Suela--wondering if there's an outage I don't know about and I'll soon be flooded.

I am so sleepy. We just landed and I was about to feel guilty about work emails and then I realized if I was home I'd just be starting to look at them now anyway!

Sparky, what kind of restaurant is that? I'd say you need to invite him to come back!

Question: If someone asks for your GPA, and it was 3.45, would you say 3.5? Or list it on a resume that way?

I wouldn't.

(Who is asking for your GPA? I'm always weirded out when it comes up in the context of anyone past say 30, unless it's a school application.)

Dana, why is someone asking for your GPA? That's ridiculous at your age.
