Angel: I appreciate you guys looking out for Connor all summer. It's just—he's confused. He needs time. That's all. Fred: Right. Time, and some corporal punishment with a large heavy mallet. Not that I'm bitter.

I look more rad than Lutheranism

I did it backwards -- many years ago a bunch of us went to Destin for vacation and in the middle of the week drove to NOLA for a night. In August. In retrospect, it *could* have been hotter. But only if we were actively engulfed in flames.

sorry about your shitty day, Suzi. Damn.

The feeling you get when your brain finally lets your heart get in its pants.

What LeN said, Suzi! I hope you and Kbug work things out.

My day was also not optimal. I am dealing with it by first sitting outside with Charlie the Dog in my lap and now Bourbon and planning a trip.

I am now considering renting a car in NO and driving to Atlanta by way of places like Sidell, Biloxi, and Destin. People who know the area, how would that be if I took 5 days or so to get from NO to Atlanta?

Sounds pretty leisurely to me, with potential for good times.

{{Suzi}} Sorry for suboptimal days all around.

Rats, Chicago won in overtime.

Wild! Three OT in the first four games. Reminds me of the great Atlanta/Twins World Series in the early 90s.

Why did Darth Vader cross the road? To get to the Dark Side!

So sorry about the craptastic days, Lee and Suzi.

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

Thanks for the advice on vegetable cooking, all. I may yet learn to feed myself like an adult.

Suzi, sorry for your sucky day, and I hope everything works out well.

Hachi's story is lovely.

I don't think I can plan on vacation time before January, alas. Maybe later, I don't know how payroll is going o account for this coming week off...

I don't eat much like an adult in the summer because we spend 4-5 evenings week at the pool and I am just looking for things that are easy to grill.

The Supreme Court is handing down decisions today @ 10 a.m. - 14 cases left, so we may have two more decision days next week. What's left: [link]

Also, the Big Boss' retirement party (from us; the official school-sponsored party will be in October, and none of us have been invited) is today, so I will have to stand up and make a toast. And then I will crawl under the table.
