this mess was yours / now your mess is mine

sara, I get to get double crowns later this year. We can be twin monarchs!

ita, my fingers are crossed for you. (Which is why I deserve a damn medal for typing this with no mistakes.)

I don't even know what a double crown is in dentistry! Good luck!

The pschent though? Why must one of the crowns look like a bowling ball...what was the symbolism there?

I don't know about sara, but I was assuming it meant 2 crowns on 2 different teeth. I don't know how 2 crowns on 1 tooth would work. Possibly HILARIOUSLY.

You were a wrong baby who grew up wrong. The wrong kind of wrong. It's better you hear it from a friend.

Now tagless for your comfort.

DH accepted a new job in Madison. This means he'll be spending the week in Madison and coming home on weekends until the end of the school year.

Now he has to figure out how to give notice and still get his huge bonus before he starts the new job in March.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

Why do I always run up the stairs at work?? Especially when I'm on my way to see Higher-Ups??? I start talking and then I'm out of breath and embarrassed. Ah well.

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.

So we had freezing rain all night. I was planning on taking the train to work today, but then I realized the roads would be salted but the sidewalks mostly wouldn't be. So I drove and the roads were fine.

I guess North of us in Wisconsin is really getting nailed withe the snow, and that's the system that's gonna clobber the East coast, right?

Apparently that's half of it.

I will forgive it for being a Friday-night storm if it starts early enough that we get to leave early tomorrow!! (Not only would I prefer a weekday snow day, I have been close enough to various municipal governments that I know it wreaks havoc on the budget to have a big storm over the weekend.)

Ann, that's a ferret.

The northern part, tommy. Here in DC, we're just expecting rain. Which is fine with me -- if we're going to get walloped with snow, I at least want a day off work for it.
