Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

Why did Darth Vader cross the road? To get to the Dark Side!
Thanks Ginger. The article I read was similar in tone to the one you posted. I didn't mean to imply I thought it was necessary to cut all meat from my diet pronto. I'm not like that anyway. I'm more the eat in moderation type.
So I just had the most aggravating conference with one of my students. She's just blowing off the class royally, and I'm trying to wrangle her and get her to focus, but I'm also trying to keep the kid gloves on. Arrrgh! What I wanted to say: Hey, if you want to see how little work you can do in the class and still pass, that's fine by me. What's not fine is the assumption that I'm going to work any harder to get you to pass the class than you are.

I am a woman of various inclinations and only some of the time are they to burn everything down in frustration
I should go for a run, but what I really want to do right now is go to sleep. I'm pretty sure that would result in me being acutely awake at midnight, though, which I'm sure would not be good for tomorrow. I don't even know why I'm so tired.

I'm sure there are a number of sofa stores out there who have no idea why some customers are snickering. Or there are some very smug business owners who smirk every time they answer the phone and say their name.

All sorrows can be borne if you put them into a story. Tell me a story.
We're up to Winter Storm Vulcan now.
I refuse to recognize names for storms that are not hurricanes/typhoons. It's just too ridiculous. How long before we end up with Sunshower Shelley or Afternoon Drizzle Dora?

Yay Suzi! COngratulations!
I just got off a quick conference call, and you know, as much as I like the coworkers here and the casual office environment (jeans, no office manager around, very low-key), I am not going to be envying these guys in a few months. They're working on a series of monster reports that are going to be challenged in court by a ton of angry Westerners (ranchers, miners, and environmentalists), and it's going to be u.g.l.y.

This has amused me greatly. Thank you for my Wednesday laugh.

Insane winds. The front porch was howling.
