So Dad #1 is slightly misguided but trying. Dad #2 just sucks.
Just had my support group and am, as usual, filled with gratitude for my family.
Now, I can hold a note for a long time...actually I can hold a note forever. But eventually that's just noise. It's the change we're listening for. The note coming after, and the one after that. That's what makes it music.

Off-topic discussion. Wanna talk about corsets, duct tape, or physics? This is the place. Detailed discussion of any current-season TV must be whitefonted.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

Today's Google fun is for the birthday of Mr. Zamboni. There's an amusing little game that lets you drive a little zamboni of your very own.

By a series of mistakes ( I thought I was searching mail, I was searching my drive,) I ran across a folder (and subfolders) of stuff I'd been working on back in 2009. During SMOV and just before I went to Nepal/Bhutan, which was crazycakes times.
In this folder was a bunch of files I'd been in the process of reingesting. But I hadn't finished. Interrupted, they were forgotten for 3 years.
Good news: I can now reingest them and get rid of some recurrent errors. My packrat habits serve me well, cause I saved all this stuff off our old ops machine when we switched to linux, 'just in case.' Bad news: THREE FUCKING YEARS. OMGFAIL. So embarrassing. Owned right up to it, but jaysus.
Went out to dinner with B&A and it was $10 bottle of wine night at the Dizz. So I drank half of one to go with my brandied pepper bacon with provolone burger and sweet potato fries. And took the bottle home. Seems like a good plan.
I've got to steam the cat before I crash tonight.

I am a woman of various inclinations and only some of the time are they to burn everything down in frustration
Steaming a cat sounds hard and potentially dangerous.

"And to be clear, I am the hell. And the high water."
and I thought it was just a euphemism.

Steam up the bathroom and stick Devi in it for 5-10 minutes, vet's orders.
Easier than pilling her, for sure!

That sounds more doable than what I was picturing.
Medical~ma for all that need it, btw. I am on my phone and therefore lurky, but reading and nodding and having what I hope are appropriate reactions.

Definitely more than what I was picturing. Ouch!
I really don't want to work tomorrow. I think looking at the computer all day will hurt. BUT, I can clearly look at one (hi, typing on one), and if I take the day off, will just laze around and do nothing. Ugh. I have a "work from a cafe" date with a friend for the afternoon.

The feeling you get when your brain finally lets your heart get in its pants.
-t! Are you going to be in Palo Alto from time to time? We should do something about that if so.
