Also, I love my interns. I finally got them this week from out of the Ed departments clutches. They're so competent. I'm sad that they're really only here for another week or two. But, competent young ladies who can be trusted to do a task or five independently, and are willing to ask for help when stumped or confused. Half my problem with interns/volunteers is that it usally means I have to babysit them the entire time they're on site. To be able to say "do this" and then walk away is an amazing feeling, especially knowing that they're smart enough to figure out the various quirks they might run into.
Spike: Lots of fuss over one girl. Other things to do around here--important things. Angel: You know that whoosh thing you do when you're suddenly not there anymore? I love that.

I refused to friend a left wing critic of Obama because he pushes the "Benghazi Scandal". Plenty of real shit to criticize this administration for, don't need to jump on faux scandals, mostly created by Faux News.

I am mostly packed, mostly ready to get on a plane for 5 hours and then drive another 3 into the Rockies.
I am SO wearing a sportsbra all.fucking.day tomorrow.

Have you seen this picture of a naked woman doing a yoga headstand while breastfeeding her child?
It is NSFW (but no nip or naughty bits shown). The image makes me laugh every single time I see it.

Well, the kid didn't have to pull down/lift up mom's shirt like most of my friends' kids have done at some inopportune public moment.
My cats are ignoring me. They do not understand what the suitcase means, I guess.

Fine, I'm awake at 5. I'd really rather sleep another couple hours, but I don't dare. Gotta make my flight.

And I'm awake at 5-ish -- for no reason whatsoever. Body just decided to be awake. sigh

Ditto here, though I think it's because I went to bed before 10.

Plenty of real shit to criticize this administration for, don't need to jump on faux scandals, mostly created by Faux News.Seriously, it's not like the NSA wiretap revelations, drone warfare issues, and the government doggedly pursuing Snowden for whistleblowing aren't perfectly legitimate reasons to rake Obama and his administration over the coals.

OK, I'm getting antsy (typical pretravel) and I need to stop and get cash, so gonna hit the road. Given it is 3 hours before my flight, think I'll stop for coffee. See you in mountain time! Or BWI if I get bored and find wifi.

Bon voyage!
I am awake again, full of resolution about what to accomplish this day. Let us see if my plan survives battle.
