I was gone for three business days. THREE. Why is my inbox a nightmare?
You got all kinds of learnin' and you made me look the fool without tryin', and yet here I am with a gun to your head. That's 'cause I got people with me. People who trust each other, who do for each other, and ain't always lookin' for the advantage.

The feeling you get when your brain finally lets your heart get in its pants.
I am so sad and sorry about Baltimore, Lisah and Sarameg, and Maria. I should probably be angry too, but my rage reserves seem empty right now.
If I can get my act together this week shrift maybe I can send you some better email

Every now and then, I think I might actually be a little odd.
Glad your kitty is okay, Steph. Kitty~ma for Folly, Burrell.
I thought today was Wednesday. Was looking for the pre-meeting agenda email. All grumpy and "where is everyone?" Luckily I figured out that it's Tuesday before I contacted anyone and looked stupid. Congrats, Self, you've won an extra day!
I'd like to have one nice spring/summer day in this neighborhood without the obnoxious sound of whirring buzzing machines. If it's not the apartment complex on one side, it's the old guy next door, trimming the vegetation.
I'm trying to keep up with what's happening in Baltimore, but it's so overwhelming. I can focus on that, or I can work, but I can't do both.

That's where I am right now. While we were out of town, we didn't have the TV on in the hotel, and I only had my smartphone, so I wasn't online much, and I know I missed so much about Baltimore. And now that I'm back, I have a lot of work to do before I leave again Thursday. Argh. Maybe tonight I can catch up.

I don't know if I'm more appalled about Baltimore or Nepal.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
If I hear one more thing about people on Everest, I might scream.

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.
Is having a dildo containing the ashes of your dead lover weird? Or is it just weird if you use it?
But seriously, I'm nonjudgemental on this.
Designer dildo contains ashes of dead lover
Designer Mark Sturkenboom's "21 Grams" is a glass dildo containing the ashes of a dead person. It's storied in an exquisitely-crafted box integrating a perfume diffuser and iPhone amplifier to trigger memories of the lost loved one.
"After a passing, the missing of intimacy with that person is only one aspect of the pain and grief," Sturkemboom says. "This forms the base for 21 Grams. The urn offers the possibility to conserve 21 grams of ashes of the deceased and displays an immortal desire. By bringing different nostalgic moments together like the scent of his perfume, 'their' music, reviving the moment he gave her her first ring, it opens a window to go back to moments of love and intimacy."
OK, the iPhone thing is weirder than the ash-filled dildo, IMHO.

Cats to become a rabbit should gather immediately now here
Jesse, I was really confused, because there is a local news story about Everest Institute (a for profit junior college) closing suddenly and I am sick of hearing about it.

THat is not a phrase you want to hear about a cat.

Let me tell you, you really don't want to experience it, either.

I don't know what to do about Baltimore right now other than be on the right side, and I am going to donate money for Nepal today once I unfuck my inbox a little bit.
Fingers crossed for all sick kitties. The friends I was visiting probably are putting down one of their cats today because cancer.
I need to pick up a package at my office and then I'm probably heading home to work from there because Macy's sent me a package via UPS and I need to be there to accept it even though I paid about $30 for the item in question. OMG MACY'S DON'T YOU KNOW UPS ARE THE ENEMY.
