I also tell whichever critter is closest that they are in charge while I'm gone. Because some needs to be.
Ha! I always do this. The cats need some responsibility, frankly.
I may be love's bitch, but at least I'm man enough to admit it.

I am a woman of various inclinations and only some of the time are they to burn everything down in frustration
I feel a little bad when Pixie or Wednesday is left in charge. They are not very responsible. Not like Walter.

Life moves pretty fast. You don't stop and look around once in a while, you could miss it.
I tell the DH when I'm leaving, and he me, but I never told roommates. They aren't the boss of me, would be my take on it.

Our wings are not tired.
I probably always say something when I am leaving, but I am probably the only one in the house that does that. Then again if I visit mom I must call her when I get home so she knows I arrive safely. It is something we have always done in my family.
It has been like 40 years (really) since I had a roommate, so I don't remember.
eta: I think if I was asked to do so I would make the effort.

oh joy! Oh Rapture ! I have a brain!
At the library , we have a homework club for elementary school kids. In some of the libraries it goes up to high school. It seems to really help that there are a bunch of kids that are getting together in one place for the purpose of getting homework done. I wonder if something like that would help CJ. It is one way to help with the organizational issues

And then Ortus came and said "It's Ortin' time" and they all Orted off into the sunset
I think I could do Saturday brunch - there's a possibility Dylan has a soccer game that morning, I need to look at my schedule at home.

I say hello to Shadow when I get home, but that's because he comes trotting down the driveway when I get home and sits down pointedly until I greet him properly. If I'm late I get meowed at and I have to apologize. I don't say good-bye to him when I leave, because he's already taken my spot in bed next to Hubby and glares at me until I leave.

I probably would say something if I was leaving,or arrived home, but I might not go out of my way. I certainly would if asked

Remember that the frontier of the Rebellion is everywhere. And even the smallest act of insurrection pushes our lines forward.
OK, it looks like the Zine Fest wants me to come in on Saturday morning, also. But I might still be able to have breakfast with you, depending on how early (or late) you can have it. I still hope we can at least meet and say hi when you're that close.

Punishingly Intricate

Ha! Yeah, we used to do this when we had more than one pet. Extra funny to us when we'd leave one of the pets in charge while there'd still be a human at home. Now I just tell the dog to try to be a good girl. And I always say goodbye to the husband if he's home, of course. I'd also say hello or goodbye to roommates, as long as they weren't sleeping or busy because it seemed rude not too. Also, I generally lived with friends
