Life moves pretty fast. You don't stop and look around once in a while, you could miss it.

Aw, man, dcp. Take care of yourself.
Baltimore's ACS just came out. Fascinating stuff on the changes in my neighborhood (designated the Waverlies. It's actually a rather odd boundary. If I were drawing the lines, would be a little different and some of the demographs would be ...different.) And now I can't find the link nor how I got it...
..I just was asked the backstory of Kosovo. Mental whiplash. I read and wrote so much about the whole Yugo collapse in the 90s that I wished I had a 'fmr' key on my keyboard. My brother was part of KFOR stationed in Macedonia (hey, where DID my Skopje plate go??) I have a ridiculous number of books on the subject, And yet, for a moment I was all DER.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
dcp, I'm kinda glad you don't have to face the option of taking a hit to save someone else's job. Not a easy decision to make.
It's kinda weird having a twitch I can't see. But I can certainly feel my muscles fluttering over the scapula.

omg hate everything and this is with mac behaving today (not really helping much at all, but behaving). 6:30 til now, only real break was lunch and that was rushed so I could make a meeting that I was unprepared for because it got moved up 2 hours. Cat has peed on stuff the last 3 days, dog is still here, I have like 5 more things I need to get done tonight and make mac's lunch for tomorrow. I am dead tired and my parents keep asking about stuff I have not done and managing to make me feel like a complete failure for my lack of it.

got the medical power of attny from another site. almost done with it.
updated the freaking family on the bullet points of what I have done, what I know I have not done yet and what possible might need to be done that I will try to control to impact them the least. FREAKING PARENTS!
