Aw, Darby.
OK, I am dressed and will sally forth in search of hot beverages. Sadly, the coffee shop that was just down the street has moved further away, so I will need to both drive and make decisions.

I am a woman of various inclinations and only some of the time are they to burn everything down in frustration

Anyone watching would think we were evading a tail.
Some of these dogs are her friends at the park. She loves playing with Jackson the Shar Pei, but she will not walk past his house.
It's super ridic, but anytime she asserts her preferences I want to encourage that, so we go with it.

That's fascinating. I wonder why dog park!Jackson is different than house of!Jackson.

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.

Maybe Jackson is territorial when he's at home?
A neighbor of mine used to have a dog that would bark his ass off and lunge at me whenever I walked past his front yard. But when he was a few feet away on the sidewalk and the other side of the fence, he was the sweetest thing.

Cats to become a rabbit should gather immediately now here
Thank Erin, that was really helpful in in pointing our issues.
We are a university theatre without a theatre major, but all our designers and half of our directors are from professional theatre. So, we have kids who are just learningto program the light board or do quick changes or call cues during tech, since they really haven't even had classes,and designers and direcors who are unused to teaching people how to do things. It is really those kids who need the practice of either somethinglike a dry tech, or at least someone to sit down with them and go over cues and expectations.

Of course, right now, my problem is we are techingtoday and the costume plot is in the designers head, which I can just run with, but these wardrobe crew who have never even worked with costumes are goingto be lost. Usually what happens to keep tech going is that my senior students and I learn the show, and then teach it to the crew after we get it.

Bob's learned to live with tragedy, but he knows that this tragedy is one that won't ever leave him or get better.
Hmm, my stunning lack of planning or measuring or, potentially, paying attention means that my split pea soup is going to be split pea and shredded potato soup. And not done for a while.
I also thought my heater sucked but really I just had the vents in "OMG summer and air conditioning is frightfully expensive" configuration.
This is not my most effective Saturday morning. Even if both of those mistakes were initially made last night.
