Our wings are not tired

If anyone has advice for me on the job/money front,

I don't have anything specific to your industry, but I have been working essentially freelance for close to 15 years now. Somehow I see running my little corporation as still freelancing, I just need to keep more people working. I may have some insight into surviving in the "gig economy" that it seems you've ended up caught yourself in. I'm always happy to chat.

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.

Whose bright idea was it to make the liberal arts/psychology/person-centered/relationship-building woman do payroll? Daniel may have been prescient; I was met at the door with the scent of brownies.

I look more rad than Lutheranism

Jesus, therapy is hard. So I am watching last night's Arrow to recover (I wasn't home last night and I'm waiting for my coordinator to send me articles, so I have a little free time).

Teppy, I'm sorry therapy is so hard.

ltc is napping, and my inlaws should be here soon. I'm tempted to go out when they get here and find someplace with wifi to watch Arrow.

Do it! It was even better than I hoped. They really hit it out of the park with this one.

It has to be hard, I guess, or else I won't fix the stuff that needs to be fixed. I do get that, honestly. But man, hard therapy is HARD. t /tautology

Will I end up embarrassing myself by crying in public?

Quite possibly. I cried (more than once), but it's hard to say whether it was because I was already emotional from therapy, or because the episode was THAT GOOD. Though I kind of lean towards the episode being THAT GOOD. (Admittedly, the points where I cried are definitely my specific emotional buttons. And Stephen Amell sold the hell out of it.)

I'll keep that in mind. My comic book bag that my inlaws love to make fun of is packed with my iPad and headphones. I caught up on a couple CW shows while I was at mom on the app and it kept me from having to watch football, which was awesome.

move out and draw fire

Have others seen this thread on Twitter?

Dude in the thread is like "Whoa, talk to The Moth, get on NPR." and I'm like "Whateva, happens all the time."

Sunbasket wasn't really workin g out for us, because it required too much active cooking time, which is hard with ltc. I need more stick in the oven or stick in the crock pot type recipes. I also don't need all the spices and pantry items they send because I'm pretty well stocked in that area. So, I decided to try Butcher Box instead. I'm glad I have a second freezer and that I had cleaned out that freezer the other day. There is so much meat. I'm glad I signed up for every 3 months and not more often. They didn't include recipes like they were supposed to, but I can look through all my bookmarked recipes and find something to work.
