I always thought the name Serenity had a vaguely funereal sound to it.

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

Above sounded snarky but she really does sound like a nice person.

Our wings are not tired.

Thanks, Cass. That is how I took the comment. And yes, I liked her quite a lot.

Zen, you know that is my cue to remind you, and others, that it is mighty warm here. 7:30pm and still 77F.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

The thermostat is set on 70 and I am FREEZING.

I just had a similar experience! Usually I think 68 is plenty hot, but not tonight! So I bumped it up.

Oh Laura, your son is a trial! Good luck to you both. (All?) A nice girlfriend seems like a good start, at least.

I finished my work! And sent it off for review, which I hope I won't get until the morning. I may not check until the morning. Then I just have some non thinky stuff I can do tomorrow.

Questions:

My boss said to call her when I emailed her the stuff, because she doesn't always check work email. I texted her. That should do, right?

Does anyone here know offhand about weights of paper? Like, what's the weight that's a little nicer than crappy office paper, but not super fancy?

Normal copy paper is 20#.

28# is a nice step up

In the spirit of the misbehaving child should not get all the attention. #2 is working full time and in college and just helped me prepare a tasty red curry stir fry. Good stuff.

Thank you! I knew you people would know.

Because books.

Have faith, Laura. My #1 son, who would probably be great friends with yours, just got a job at McDonald's. He's taking it very seriously, and reporting in every day when he gets home, which is sort of heartbreakingly sweet. He also brought me an apple pie and french fries the other day!

Sometimes it just takes a while.

The standard weight of copy paper is 20 lb. bond. 24 lb. bond is heavier and is often used for stationery.
