Oh man -- a former coworker's husband had opened a restaurant a couple of years ago, and I just saw on Eater that it's closed, AND there's an anonymous comment that refers to divorce, which would be so sad. They have at least one, and I think two, little kids, and I'm sure lost a ton of money on the business. That would be hard. At least my former coworker now has (what should be) a more stable job than she had here.
Yeah, but you're an amateur fry cook and I come from a long line of fry cooks that don't live past 25.

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

Today starts my five day weekend. Ahhhhhhhhh. I should have scheduled a massage. Might see if my gal has any availability. Gosh, that would be so nice.

Thanks, all. I am spending my birthday working, even though it is a holiday here, so that one of my colleagues did not have to come in (it is her birthday, too).
We are planning on finishing the move to the new house this weekend, but there is so much to do that I am feeling overwhemedish.

Happy birthday, Sparky!
I'm facilitating a Collaborate meeting for my org's Central American team. I really wish I'd taken Spanish in high school now.

There's a funeral for a firefighter here this morning, for a man who died of a heart attack just after returning from a call. He was 61. What keeps catching me in the coverage is that he joined the CFD as a rookie when he was 43. It's kind of inspirational to think about.
(Really shitty November for the CFD. Three firefighters died in the past two weeks - one during a call from smoke, I think; this man; and another who was killed in a hit and run leaving a Veterans' Day function.)

Happy Birthday, Sparky!
Today is day 3 of my so-called vacation. Which really isn't very vacationy. I have to make a pie this morning, and go to the store for cream (reverse those actually), and go to the drug store, and call doctor's offices, and deal with my parents and call the movers and and and...
Really wish I could go back to bed.
