Am I supposed to be changing my clothes a lot? Is that the helpful thing to do?

Why did Darth Vader cross the road? To get to the Dark Side!

Happy birthday Amy!

Love is stronger than death and harder than sorrow. Those who practice it are fierce like the light of stars traveling eons to pierce the night.

Keep believing, keep pretending....

Good one, Amy!

OK, that was, in fact, a workshop and not a meeting, and a pretty good one. Glad I went. If nothing else, I stuck my oar in for more/better bike paths and walkways, and championed production/retail combos (cabinet making shop, perhaps another small brewery, etc) and argued against high-priced condos along every inch of the waterfront. So that's something.Two more meetings this month (and I think they are actually meetings) I don't know if I can manage those. We'll see.

I'm on my way to my office because I have an 8:30am class. The class lasts three hours. But hey, at least I legitimately can ignore my inbox all morning?

Always knew shrift had a lot of class.

Sorry, sorry, low-hanging fruit.

It's raining and I am sorely tempted to work from home. Actually, I am tempted to stay home and read murder mysteries, maybe make some soup, so I'd best go into the office where I will actually work. Sigh.

The instructor hasn't shown up yet, so I'm distinctly lacking in class.

I remember the crazy days. 500 posts an hour. Nubmer! Natgbsb

Gotta love boss coming in and asking status on something that I had emailed him at 8:30am yesterday.

He's so stressed, the office energy is not great. None of it is toward me, but still.

Home energy is a giant ball of negative with surly teenager and the non-communicative angst of doom.

I think I might need to start meditation or yoga.

Every now and then, I think I might actually be a little odd.

When Calvin Trillin was covering the Civil Rights movement in the South, on occasion local Jews realized he would be the 10th man in the area and hastily put together a service.

Somebody explain this to me? Ten Jewish men in the same area triggers the Apocalypse unless they do a service? (Probably not, but that's the first thing I thought of.)

No, but they need 10 for a minyan (think quorum).

Hours and hours of meetings. Legs still requesting trial separation. Now face as well due to oncoming weather system.
