Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

Oh yeah! Good news, Cash? Does that mean you guys will move over the summer?

New job yay for Mr. Cash.

We had rain and snow last night. Ended up with a few inches on the ground. Clearing off my car this morning was a bitch as there were layers of ice mixed in with the snow so nothing wanted to move.

And I touched off my asthma in the process of moving the snow. I'm in the office and trying real hard to keep this from becoming a bigger issue. Slow, deep breathes. I have both ice water and hot tea. Slow and steady. Blarg.

Now tagless for your comfort.

Does that mean you guys will move over the summer?

We haven't ruled out staying in this house for another year. It will depend on DH and how we manage the new work schedule and the cost of him staying in Madison 3-4 nights a week.

It's a relief to have a good offer and for him to get out of this incredibly toxic and stressful situation. It's been like Kafka with a paycheck. We can't even say anything to anyone here in town yet. He needs to be working on the last day of February at the old job to get his not-insignificant bonus check for last year, but the new job starts the following Monday. He may not be able to give notice and that is bothering him.

Although, I am boggled by that considering the shitty way current company is treating him.

Totally get that, but it's the right thing to do in this situation. Especially given their own behavior.

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

Um... yum? Except for the mayo. And maybe the hot dogs.

BONUS! I think I just lost a filling on a completely different tooth.

This day just keeps getting better!

It's five thousand for kissing, ten thousand for snuggling... End of list.

I thought the Tabber Benedict story would be BY FAR the craziest news this week, but there's a rampaging ex-cop hellbent on revenge against the LAPD!

"Faded like the lilac, he thought."

I...yeah, I dunno what to do with that.

You can "like" things on this board! Just say, "I like that post!"

Ha, I totally run on the way to important things too and then look completely unprofessional.

I also, having had a lot of professional new contacts lately, am still being mistaken for early twenties at 37. I'm fine with it, and I have no problem asserting myself professionally, but I do wonder if all my aging is going to catch up with me on one big swoop.

Anyway, I hit my second weight loss goal today! I now weigh what I say I weigh on my drivers' license. In Arizona they never expire until you retire, so it's from 2006.

Oh, sara, that's a bad day indeed.
