So that's my dream. That and some stuff about cigars and a tunnel.

I'll suggest the Everybody Poops book to CJ.

It is too early in the morning for drama from the search and rescue team. I know I shared the drama over the promotions last month. Well, the parents of the guy who felt he didn't get the promotion he was due (even though he DID get a promotion) are the head of the Parent Support Unit. A while back another mom, L, and I were named Co-Chairmen (women?) in waiting for next year when their son graduates. Well, guess who is stepping down on Tuesday and expecting L and I to step up? WIthout even talking to us about it. It was just in the agenda, which I often don't read until the day of the meeting.

L and I knew this would be a possibility after the promotion drama, but we had hoped that the parents would be a bit more adult about the whole situation.

Ann, that's a ferret.

Matt, he looks a lot like our Victor (RIP).

Suzi, so often parents are the worst.

I have had a ton of time off in the past 10 days (last friday was Admittance Day, then labor day and today is Rosh Hashannah) but I do wish we had cooler weather. Days off when it's a 100 degrees out blow. But it is compelling me to grade, which is good.

Always Anti-fascist!

When we were kids, my mom rescued a gorgeous show Siamese who got dumped at my school after she had something crinkle her tail and wreck her "career"

Yeah, he puts the rest of the alley cats to shame in terms of appearance, and also seems much more devoted to cleaning himself. Sadly, his twin has gone missing (along with an all-black kitten from the same litter, plus the one I know has died).

Fandom means never having to say "But where would I wear that?"

Timelies all!

Aw, kitty...

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

You guys, I cannot recommend living in a community highly enough. I just called the florist to order flowers for my grandmother's funeral, and she asked what I had in mind, and I just said to coordinate with whatever my mother ordered already, because I knew we were calling the same place.

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

Ugh. I decided that a little bit of this "kettle corn" wouldn't count against anything...

FUCKING ARTIFICIAL SWEETENERS.

My head hurts so bad.

But I drew a picture of me having a headache and gave it to the guy who gave me the cursed corn, so I think he'll remember that particular trigger.

I love his critique of my art--"Kinda abstract--if you look at each line, you're all 'what the hell?' but when you put it together, it's all there! One wrinkle more would have been too much. Well, one nostril is a bit off, but impressive nonetheless."

That's the kind of feedback I need on deviantArt.
