Spike ,'Conversations with Dead People'
Off-topic discussion. Wanna talk about corsets, duct tape, butt kicking, or physics? This is the place. Detailed discussion of any current-season TV must be whitefonted.
I was on the phone last night with my sister coordinating gifts, so at least that's taken care of.
My brother and I *just* text-coordinated my stepdad's BD gift (his BD is Saturday). Without internet commerce, I would be failing SO HARD at Mothers' Day and Stepdad's BD this year. Thanks, FTD and Amazon 2-day delivery!
t edit Although I do still need to run out and get cards as well. My family is a big believer in cards even with (or without) gifts.
I'm driving to Madison on Friday. On Saturday my sister and I will drive to Clintonville to attend Mother's Day dinner with our mom at Angelus Retirement Community.
So at least I don't have to mail the Mother's Day card.
Shrift - I apologize for the pancake question. That was CJ. The answer was fantastic!!!
Maybe I will get a mother's day card for my sister. And my SILs.
Drinks after work with co-workers, during which we will bitch. Yay.

My sister and I are exasperated with our father because we know that he'll put off picking up his part of the gift until the last minute, and we are people who plan. Or at least, I've become a person who plans, because if I don't plan, I never do anything.

Ha! As a Chicago resident, I have to say that the pancake question was a pretty sick burn.
I got cards last night, but I'm not sure if they need extra postage, so I'm hoping to finish up at this site early enough to find a post office.
This site is super weird, btw. Looks like an abandoned prison on the outside, and inside, weirdly formal and ornate furniture. Not super comfy.
I've taken a mid-day break, because my EZPass toll account ran out of money and I have to wait until it replenishes before I can drive through a toll booth. Not that hard to do when you go through $40-50 worth of tolls a week -- which Uber repays me for, but still.
Also, hi Jesse! Forgetting a book for the plane bites...especially on a cross-country!!

It is as if CJ knew that (I forgot). That was utterly random. Or was it...
Separately - does anyone here give their cats glucosamine chews? Have you found them helpful? If not, any suggestions. I'm worried about Miss Kitty and the stairs.
I'm loving Dear NSA.
Oh, yeah, expense report, mother fudger. I hate paperwork. Even when it gets me money.
Lisah, bask in that last-day freedom!
I give myself glucosamine chews. Okay, capsules. I think they're great. I'd give them to my cat.
I don't know whether to ask you to tell us something only the real Matt would know, or to suggest you add in a few more details and submit that to the next Bulwer Lytton contest.
Both! Both is good!
When I walked in to Joann's that day, they had 13 yards of Exploding TARDIS fabric. When I walked out, they had zero.
Now I'm seeing WS leaving Joann's in a slow-mo power walk, All The Fabric slung over her shoulder like spoils of war, while random TARDISes explode behind her.
I came in here to say something specific, but I've forgotten it.
