I'd call that a very productive day of adulting, sj. Don't worry about other days, the day you're in is the one that counts.
I'm a vision of hotliness, and how weird is that? Mystical comas. You know, if you can stand the horror of a higher power hijacking your mind and body so that it can give birth to itself, I really recommend 'em.

[NAFDA] Spike-centric discussion. Lusty, lewd (only occasionally crude), risqué (and frisqué), bawdy (Oh, lawdy!), flirty ('cuz we're purty), raunchy talk inside. Caveat lector.

I’m responsible for my own happiness? I can’t even be responsible for my own breakfast! (Bojack Horseman)
Today I cooked red beans in the slow cooker, emptied and refilled the dishwasher, fed myself lunch, put a load of laundry in, folded a previously washed/dried load, checked in for my flight to Columbus tomorrow, submitted an article I'd spent the weekend writing, wrote and submitted my local beer column, had what has become my weekly fight with my editor for the local paper, went to physical therapy, deposited two checks with my phone, cleaned out my wallet, and made a hotel reservation for a beer event in Mississippi next month.
Now I just need to pack. I don't wanna.
Reflecting on the list, that's a lot of stuff considering I could barely get myself out of bed this morning! I'm worn out just looking at all that.
The bit that took most of my mental energy was the weekly bitchcake festival with my misogynistic editor who really has no respect for my work on any level and is amping up his crusade to passive-aggressively ensure I know that exponentially every interaction I have with him.
Askye, I'm so excited about tales of your progress! Please keep them coming.

ltc is becoming quite active. She's kicking up a storm, and is apparently wide awake by 6 AM every day.

I hope that doesn't means she's going to be a morning person.

I hope so too. I don't know where she could possibly inherit that gene from. Certainly not from either of her parents.

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.
I'm so glad things are looking up, askye.
Coming up on my fifth anniversary at work. I just got a brochure of choices for a gift. Do I want the the tension mounted black diamond ring or the cordless drill/driver? Or the wireless speakers? Or the Le Creuset 9.5 inch au gratin dish? Why only offer a man's putter? Definitely no on the Rubbermaid kitchen tools set - really, spatulas and measuring cups, hell no - gimme something that actually costs.

Nora, I'm sorry you have such an ass chappeau to deal with.

Or the Le Creuset 9.5 inch au gratin dish?
Le Creuset is good stuff, if you think you'll use that specific piece.

If it were the cast iron stuff, I'd say go for the Le Creuset.
