I'd rather stay home and watch television. It's often funnier than killing stuff.

A dress should be tight enough to show you're a woman but loose enough to flee from zombies. — Ginger

ita, I'm really sorry to hear that. It most prodigiously sucks. I hope you find something jaw-gapingly fantastic!

ita, all the job~ma in the world to you.

ION, I may actually get hired at the insurance company I've been temping at for the last 2 years. It is most decidedly NOT an ideal job but it is the only one I've been offered in the 6 years since I move here. So, I will take it.

oh, sarameg, we need to work out you coming over for kitten time for real!

Oh yeah! I really need the giggles. And I want to see the canine-feline negotiations! As much as I wish I could run away from work (so convenient!) it's actually really hard to do of late. Makes me nuts.

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

Good luck, quester! I get the ambivalence of the not ideal job; I hope it's not too bad, anyway.

Man, I am starving today. Every time I turn around it's to look for something more to eat. I hope that means I'm getting better.

I'm so sorry, ita.

Quester, best luck!

Tomorrow is the last day of school for the students. I have some grading and a ton of end of the year stuff to take care of (including packing up my room since they are renovating my whole hallway and I'll be in another classroom next year), so I don't feel remotely done. But still, whee! So ready.

Graduation went well. One of the kids who was speaking used the quote that hangs in my room from T. S. Eliot about beginnings and endings. I never teach it or refer to it, so I can't figure out if it was a shout out or not.

Last day with students tomorrow and then cleaning and then DONE. Sort of. Then Grace has surgery next week and life rolls on.
