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

I've actually got a rabbit leash from when I had Bagel Bunny in college. I'd have to get a cage, though. I could put that in the office and shut the door when I'm not home so the cats can't get in - Wednesday is really the only one I'm worried about. She's kind of a bully to the other cats I assume she would try to be to any mammal.

Ugly meeting was all populated by problem children. Including the guy from corporate. He's *really* not happy about the performance stuff. Apparently, our corporate HR dept is a fucking mess right now, and this is partly a result of that. Also, communication is bad. It's not just us, it's all throughout the company. NO FUCKING SHIT. My moribund statement, not far from wrong.

I didn't even get to say my piece because about 15 other people beat me to each one.

First coat of varnish on one of the posts. No pictures,cause you can barely tell except it is slightly shinier (which would mean the photo would suck.)

Suzi, N&G say thanks!

I ated too much crap which was my way of celebrating my doctor saying I'm borderline obese and will need to be on this fucking hated medicine at least for 3 months and possibly for the rest of my life.

I have work to do but I'm remarkably uninspired to do it.

AND I got $18 on the book settlement.

this mess was yours / now your mess is mine

I just bought a Groupon for the gun range. I'm not a fan of guns at all (to say the least), but I've only ever shot a BB gun (and once I attempted to shoot clay pigeons). I actually want to go to a range and shoot a handgun, to see what it's like. Does that make me a hypocrite?

Because books.

I forgot to say happy birthday to the twins, Kat! And to your doctor I say something less pleasant.

Steph, I don't think so at all. Wanting to know how something works, what the experience feels like, is natural. Even as someone who wouldn't have a gun in her home, it's a good thing to know how to handle one properly.

I'd love to go to a target range, actually.

Back tattoos of the mother is that you are absolutely right - Ame

No, Teppy. I feel about the same. I'm curious to shoot, but still have gun issues.

Ok. So I know I use the word awesome without really meaning the true meaning. Until today. The Grand Canyon is fucking awesome. Just...wow.

We go back for a bit more tomorrow, though my foot isn't happy with me for all the walking today. I went without the boot since the doc said I could go without it now but I may put it back on tomorrow.

Did I mention - awesome.

Our wings are not tired.

Why is the new mini-series of Rosemary's Baby set in Paris?

That ain't right.

Kat, did the twins have a totally wonderful birthday, as is right?

I hear you on the weight crap. I lost 20 pounds before I got sick and now have managed to gain them all back. I was just moaning to my sister that I couldn't remember what I did to lose the 20. The memory took a hit, but yesterday I remembered! Back on the wagon Monday. I start diets on Monday so that I can cook stuff for the week on the weekend.

sarameg, I had to laugh at DH. He commented on your staining pics because he has such an avid interest in such matters, then he was worried that you wouldn't have a clue who he was making the comments. I patted him on the head and assured him that you knew who he was.

The Grand Canyon is fucking awesome.

I don't really have a bucket list, per se, but if I did, that's on it. Definitely want to get there soonish.

Truer words... Mind blowing.

My dad hunted and took us all target shooting with his rifles when we were kids. I think the idea was so that we wouldn't try it on our own. Not that we had a clue where he kept the ammunition. He was safety guy. It was fun. Hitting the target rocks. I wouldn't want to hit anything else though.
