Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

Ouch, Kat. I will be there with you in a couple of weeks.

You were a wrong baby who grew up wrong. The wrong kind of wrong. It's better you hear it from a friend.

There will be! He asked if travel will be an issue, and I said only my dogs have an issue with it. :P

You may face some insistence that they should be allowed to stick their head out the plane window, but aside from that I'm sure they'll be thrilled for you.

I'm sorry, but the Universal Technical Institute should really work on their acronym (which they repeat over and over again in the tv commercial) if they want any female students.

Bob's learned to live with tragedy, but he knows that this tragedy is one that won't ever leave him or get better.

Right????

I mean, I am a known racing fan and that skews dude. I have seen a lot of their commercials. I've never had a favorable reaction.

I am the fly who dreams of the spider

OMG, I would shovel horse poo too work in England. It's all theoretical at this point, but before I accepted my first full-time job years ago, my plan had been to continue interning, and I'd wanted a chance to do some work over in England.

What I love about my new boss, and this may change with a reality-slap, is that she designs from dreams and passion, and not from budgets and practicality. Instead of starting with a number, she starts with a vision, which is how I've always designed (and then got bitch-slapped with the budget). But mayhaps she's got the chops to say "No, this is what we need, get the money for me so that we may be awesome".
