Damn it! You know what? I'm sick of this crap. I'm sick of being the guy who eats insects and gets the funny syphilis. As of this moment, it's over. I'm finished being everybody's butt monkey!

as terrible as airplane travel is, I will not begrudge you first class!

meara, are you going to DC and from there to NO, or two trips, or what?

No, sadly the things I want to be there for are two weeks apart--if they were one week apart I'd totally do a three legged flight or something, but no. Using a conference in Baltimore as an excuse to hang out with friends out there and in DC, and then going to Decadence in New Orleans.

Every now and then, I think I might actually be a little odd.

For the first time in my life, I have more money in my savings account than my checking. Neither amount is very large; it's just the proportion that makes me impressed with myself. I actually saved some money!

And then Ortus came and said "It's Ortin' time" and they all Orted off into the sunset

I was very proud of myself that I managed to bike all the way down the Hudson greenway this afternoon without running over any sailors. Not that I wanted to, mind, but there were SO MANY OF THEM.

We won’t stop until everyone is gay.

Zen, you go!

Bob's learned to live with tragedy, but he knows that this tragedy is one that won't ever leave him or get better.

I share because I care

I clicked the link (after checking the url name) and had my fingers crossed, "C'mon and be Jeremy Renner." ita ! does not disappoint.

First for the longer flight, meara.

Also, Chrome, why are you such a fuckup? I fire it up on my Mac, and everything else grinds to a screeching halt. Everything else. Chrome works just fine.

Chrome grinds everything else to a halt for me but also occasionally grinds itself to a standstill. Why is it so hard to find a browser that is functional and doesn't want to go SkyNet on me?

this mess was yours / now your mess is mine

I have more money in my savings account than my checking.

I do, too!

...and then of course I found out today I have to have root canal next week. See ya, savings.

Back tattoos of the mother is that you are absolutely right - Ame

This evening has been chore city. Cleaned living room, ran laundry, rehung a bunch of pictures, and gathered garbage and recycling. I get so much more done when the kids aren't home.

And I'm not sure what to do about dinner. Did some crock pot chicken with a kicky pineapple sauce. Turns out to have a lot more kick than I can eat. Any ideas on how to offset the habanero?

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

Jesse, I got the thing(s)! Thank you!

You are welcome!

I am so excited to get small things out of my house, it's getting weird. I am totally going to the party store to return some forks I didn't use at the party, as much so I don't own them any more as for the couple of bucks I'll get back.

Because books.

Some sour cream to dip it in, Suzi?
