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....
You do well to flee, townspeople! I will pillage your lands and dwellings! I will burn your crops and make merry sport with your more attractive daughters! Ha ha ha! Mark my words! Ooh! Ale! I smell delicious ale!

Our wings are not tired.
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!

I'm terrifically busy with my ennui.
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?

If you're going through hell/keep on going/don't slow down/keep your fear from showing/you might be gone/'fore the devil even knows you're there
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.

Even worse, it's my husband. He's potentially interviewing with a lab, and if your GPA is under 3.5, they need VP approval to hire. (That's fucking absurd, right?)

Wow, that is ridiculous.
