In general, taking a picture of someone who doesn't know you're taking their picture is at least a little bit creepy.
I think I'm wearing the same sandals I was last time we played this! But my toenails are a nice apple green.
Zoe: Uh huh. River, honey? He's putting the hair away now. River: It'll still be there... waiting.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

Ugh, Amy.
I have decided not to call the potential debt-collectors/scammers. If they call again, I'll deal with it then.
In the meantime, I'm about to apply for another position at the same school I applied at earlier in the summer. There's apparently been some... confusion? chaos?... behind the scenes; the person they initially hired (instead of me) ended up not taking the job, and now they have someone else who's been hired as an interim director, and they're posting a one-year K-12 librarian position. Anyway, cross your fingers for me, please!

I remember the crazy days. 500 posts an hour. Nubmer! Natgbsb
I am eating leftovers and fighting the urge to go buy a pie or cake to eat.

Lee, you like salt and caramel, and not lightly sweetened steel cut oats (made with milk and buttermilk) with freshly grated nutmeg and a handful of fresh organic blueberries? Sad to be you.
I like both! Do I win?

The feeling you get when your brain finally lets your heart get in its pants.

Everything but the oatmeal sounds good.

Crossed!
ita's oatmeal sounds great, but only if someone else is making it for me. I'm lazy.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

I finally found a recipe that requires 2 minutes of stirring and then 20 minutes of doing something else, 30s of attention, and then 10 minutes of doing whatever. And I'm good for four mornings. I'm in such heaven, you don't even know.
Good luck, Kate!
The shoes of unemployment
I don't remember wearing shoes when I was unemployed. Go you!

My day started with the check engine light going on in my brand new car. What the hell?! It's going to the dealer today and, obviously it's under warranty, but I thought having car payments meant a reduction in worrying about car bullshit!
