Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

Oh, the holiday is next Monday! I was thinking it was the 24th.

Every year, I think Presidents' Day is a week later or earlier than it is, and I don't know why! One year, I booked travel for the long weekend on the wrong date, and this year, I thought the Monday off would be the end of my vacation, not the beginning of it.

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

I think I have it in my head that we should get Washington's birthday off - maybe we did when I was in Elementary School?

Cats to become a rabbit should gather immediately now here

My mom used to get both Washington's Birthday and Lincoln's Birthday off long after President's Day came in to being. In fact, up until she retired a couple of years ago. She worked for county government, and I guess the union wouldn't agree to merge the days? Although with MLK day, it sort of comes out the same.

Why did Darth Vader cross the road? To get to the Dark Side!

Ugh msbelle, that's so hard to deal with.

Kids drove me crazy this am, thank dog they are off to school.

I think I prefer one in Jan and one in Feb, Lincoln and Washington are so close together. Although I would be happy with a three-day weekend every other week, honestly. Or every week, even. Weekends are never long enough.

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

Although I would be happy with a three-day weekend every other week, honestly.

I support this plan.

Or every week, even.

Wait, I rescind my support of the first plan and throw my support behind this plan.

I'm one of those people who don't get any holidays between New Years Day and Memorial Day.

Punishingly Intricate

I don't either, tommy. Although we have 2 floating holidays so, in theory, I could take a holiday at any time.

I just found this horrifying/awesome graphic: Tim Armstrong's salary, in distressed babies.

this mess was yours / now your mess is mine

Okay, that ongoing sinus ick that I mentioned last week? I'm finally going to the doctor for it today. Not looking forward to more antibiotics, but I am looking forward to feeling better.

I want a three day weekend PLUS Wednesdays off. Pretty much, I wish I did not have to work.
