I'm so happy he was found, Jesse. I missed the entire thing, but am happy that resolution came.
You want to meet the real me now?

Hey. New board.

And then Ortus came and said "It's Ortin' time" and they all Orted off into the sunset
My dad tore his quadriceps tendon mowing the lawn yesterday, and was in surgery last night. Docs say he is allowed to go to Canada but basically won't be able to do anything that involves bending his right leg, which is a huge bummer. Probably no sailing or kayaking.

I am a woman of various inclinations and only some of the time are they to burn everything down in frustration
Damn, Jessica, that sucks. What a thing, from mowing the lawn!
My getting-hired-permanently saga continues - there are problems with my payroll. Of course. Someday I will get a paycheck, I assume. Good thing I wasn't completely out of savings yet...

Ann, that's a ferret.
Yay, Jesse! Glad to hear your father is (will be?) okay.

My ankles got attacked by misquitos. That is the update from here.

Love is stronger than death and harder than sorrow. Those who practice it are fierce like the light of stars traveling eons to pierce the night.
smishes Shir.
Jessica, I hope your dad heals quickly.
-t, I'm glad you are ok for the moment, and hope you can get that resolved quickly. I have to say, I like the feeling that I can afford to wait a bit without hardship for payroll goofs to get fixed. There was a time in my life that was not true.

What's going on in my life?
I surprised my new supervisor yesterday by saying "Dude, make sure you get me registered for the exercise challenge with our Wellness Program. When you posted the flyer you printed an exercise log to go with it, but not a sign-up sheet, so I printed that for you." No one else signs up for those things. And me being fat, well, some guy who does not know me yet would not really expect me to be the only one to go for it. But I want my darn t-shirt. They don't make 'em in my size, but I want it anyway. Plus if I do enough of these Wellness Challenges, come November I get a discount on my health insurance premium. Also I can say, "See? I do all the right things and still I don't get to be thin."

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
My dad tore his quadriceps tendon mowing the lawn yesterday, and was in surgery last night. Docs say he is allowed to go to Canada but basically won't be able to do anything that involves bending his right leg, which is a huge bummer. Probably no sailing or kayaking.
Yikes, that IS a huge bummer!
Eek, -t. I'm sure you will get paid eventually!

I also have an itchy ankle!
Go you, WindSparrow. I liked when we had a walking challenge at work -- the teams got pretty competitive, which is a good time.

Every now and then, I think I might actually be a little odd.
I'm working with four authors all surname Zhang, one with a chatty coauthor also surname Zhang. None of them remember to give me the manuscript number when they contact me.
Who was the Chinese emperor who mandated that everyone must have one of a handful of surnames? I'd like to go back in time and have a serious chat with that control freak.

Today I have a hair cut and a lunch interview, for which I don't feel very prepared. Need to look up these people on LinkedIn.
My father's dog, a cockapoo, has decided to bark at everyone walking past the house. It's very annoying, since he also thinks he's allowed to sit on the furniture. No dogs on the bed!
