"Well, he's dead anyway, why waste the calories?"

It's what he would have wanted.

Bonus to working from home today - I can walk down to my local coffee bar and get espresso with whipped cream. Yum. And bonus to that, pumpkin bread. Unexpected yum.

I asked for a shot of syrup which the barista forgot, but I think I forgot to tip her first. Paying by credit card messes me up. Maybe I will swing by at lunch time and drop a dollar in the jar.

Art Prize is coming to Dallas in 2016.

I have a friend who has been involved in Art Prize Grand Rapids and it's kind of huge and crazy but also alot of fun. People view the art and get to vote - and there is also a judge (or judges - not sure) who also pick a winner and it makes art a major leisure activity for people who might not ordinarily get out to see contemporary work.

Ooh, that sounds fun.

I'm sitting with Jesse today

As am I. It's sunny, 70s, and breezy here today. This may be the last day in a while for nice weather, though, so I'm gonna enjoy it while I can. All the windows are open and the cat got an extra long walk this morning.

As am I.

I'm really restless, jittery, and cranky. No idea why. Maybe the weather? (Crazy high winds here, around 25-30 mph, with gusts of 50 mph, and dropping temperatures.)

I would crack open a beer in the hopes of chilling out, but I've got work to finish that needs all 5 of my brain cells functioning optimally. But later, there is a beer or 2 with my name on them.

Maria, sorry I disappeared on you, but got busy with stuff. Are you going to be up in LA on the 4th or the 5th? You are always welcome to give a call. My 5th is pretty busy, but 4th looks open.

Likewise on the disappearing act. I will be in LA the afternoon of the 3rd and all day on the 4th. My flight leaves early on the 5th. If my boss comes in for the meeting, I will be doing dinner with him on the 3rd; if not, I'm free. Regardless, I'm free on the 4th. Wine? Food? Conversation? Sounds good to me.

This is also a notification to other LA-istas. I'll post in Beep Me when the boss makes up his mind.

Chocolate chip pancakes: Much ~ma to everyone that needs it. The universe really needs to behave itself the last two months of the year.

-t, there may be something draining the battery even when the car is off. You may want to have your mechanic do a load test to figure out what it may be.

I'm jittery too, but that's because the entire West Coast team was just scolded by the boss. I have a feeling it's more about him missing his targets than us failing to perform.

From way back-

Thanks for asking about my snow status! We didn't really have any, but my boss who lives in Buffalo was snowed in for the week.

Last week I was sewing/costiuming. I worked 93 hours last week and I am exhausted, but back at regu;lar job today
