That sounds like a pretty awesome brother-in-law to me! Yay.
I wanna hurt you, but I can't resist the sinister attraction of your cold and muscular body!

He's more awesome than I realized. I don't know him very well because they moved shortly after TCG introduced me to the family.

Every now and then, I think I might actually be a little odd.
Yay for sj's awesome BIL!

I survived the in-law's wedding party. Everyone hugged me. I don't like being hugged in general unless it is someone I know quite well. This was not the case with most people, and I hate being hugged even more since I've been pregnant. I finally just had to ask TCG to take me home.

I’d be lying if I didn’t say that I miss them all tonight…

I sympathize, sj. I am a hugger, and I've gotten much more standoffish during this pregnancy. (Of course, people touching my belly without asking contributes to my "stay the hell away" mentality. Sincerely, what the fuck are people thinking??)
But I'm glad you survived, and am even more glad you're home now.

All is well that ends in pizza.
Skipping and skimming to post this question I also put to my friends on Facebook:
I have a question for any of my friends who are lawyers.
Does a telework job for a large employer in a state which requires a $15 Minimum wage have to pay the minimum wage where the employee lives, or the minimum wage for the state where the company is located?
I know that where I worked telecommuting last year, I had to only pay state taxes in my home state, so all of my income teleworking was Minnesota-based.

I suspect if they didn't want to pay that wage they would just not hire anyone based there? No idea on the actualities.

Ugh. Practically no sleep tonight -- too much pain. At least I don't have anything I need to do today.

8:15 isn't not too early to mow the lawn?
Today will be scorching, when we have had either torrential water or muggy hell orb for many deyz.

Ow. Still not much sleep, and still a ton of pain. No clue what brought this on. My original plan for the day -- go to farmers market, maybe go out to brunch, go to craft store to get some Gishwhes supplies, unpack a few more boxes, work on some Gishwhes stuff -- has become stay in bed, take painkillers, read. Maybe work on a couple of Gishwhes things that don't require movement. Also, my painkillered brain has decided that ordering a Queen Consolidated t-shirt will help things. At least my retail therapy isn't all that expensive.
