I really like this. shocker

I think we've decided that we might look suspicious being strangers bringing homemade baked goods to a group that works with prisoners, so we're bringing the cookies to the people who volunteer at the animal shelter instead.

There is a reason I divorced KCD. OMG, he can be infurriating. CJ's car wouldn't start today. I though he was in our parking lot when he was actually at the store. I happened to be on the phone with KCD at the time I got the text, so I mentioned it and KCD told me to tell CJ to contact B (his wife). It was her car and she knows its secrets. I'm in the middle of work so I pass on the message and get back into work. Then I get a call that B is on the way over to CJ and do I know why. No... Then I get a call asking if I'm waiting for AAA with CJ. No... Then I get a call about something else, I forget exactly. So I give up, hop in the car with my computer and head over to the store. As I'm going I get a call asking me why I let B go to get CJ a new battery. Ummm, I had no clue, I thought they were calling AAA. O.M.F.G. Dude. I was so frustrated I was in tears by the time I got to the store. I finally found CJ and B, they were just finishing hooking up the new battery. She tells me to ignore KCD and that he is talking out his ass. Which I know, but man, he can still push my buttons sometimes. And as we are talking, KCD drives up. WTF? Why? He gives CJ a lecture about not driving his car just to go to the store. Cause if he had driven anywhere else, the battery wouldn't have died?? Then KCD was all smiles to B and ignored me (which is just fine) and he left. Again, WTF? Why?

Never mind I worked 48 hours over 4 days last week and I have 38 hours in already this week. The rifle is still an ongoing issue. I am out of spoons. And yes, I have two fingers of whiskey in hand right now. AIFG.

Okay, Buzz Aldrin just made me do a literal spit take on Conan.

Oh, Suzi, I'm so sorry. It sounds frustrating to find yourself continually dealing with the things that made you nuts in the first place.

I have scored 23 papers in an hour. I have 13 more for this class and another 5 periods to go still. The difficulty is I'm using a rubric with about 18 categories that need to be scored in each category. It's tiring to spend more time thinking about this. Much easier to give it a holistic score. But I'm learning some cool things about the ideas in the paper that are drowned out by a lack of ability to use evidence and some crappy grammar.

This reminds me - I've been meaning to read Digger for a while, now.

Two other comics I adore that aren't mentioned on there are Unsounded and A Redtail's Dream.

ARTD is my newest favorite. The art is gorgeous, and it's fun to see a story that's so immersed in Finnish culture and folklore.

Ooooooooh! *runs to check out*

Suzi, B sounds much more together than KCD, at least. The man needs a keeper, clearly, and I'm glad it's not you.

Took me 45 minutes to get past banging my head on my wrist-rest to this.
