I'd rather stay home and watch television. It's often funnier than killing stuff.

That's the pain / That cuts a straight line down through the heart / We call it love

Thanks, guys. Amazing how much it helps clarify my thinking to type it all out!

Odds are you would have had to put some money of your own into doing a proper job, so the return would not have been as clearcut as you hoped.

Punishingly Intricate

Will I ever get out of this hotel bed where I've been lounging and doing computer-based tasks all morning, drinking coffee, and listening to the radio? Maybe in time to meet up with Chicagoistas this evening. Actually, my coffee is almost gone and I'll need to get more and my currently unemployed state is not allowing me to splurge on expensive room service like I might have before. Aside from that, am still feeling pretty awesome about my decision to quit my job!!

You're in a Kimpton, right? STAY IN BED. That was an excellent hotel bed.

YES!!! Thank you for validating my life decisions.

shrift, I'm kind of jealous of myself right now. That's why I'm making sure to TCB while I'm also lounging in this very comfortable bed!

Because books.

Kimptons are the ones with goldfish, aren't they? I loved that. #wrongpriorities

::waves at everyone:: I have no time to myself anymore. And our second-in-command baker quit yesterday, on Mother's Day, the busiest day we've had so far. There are not enough pain au chocolat in the world, is what I'm saying.

Kate, I can't believe you're due so soon (although I know it must not feel that to you)! Babies! So exciting.

That sounds awesome, Lisah! So jealous.

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

Hi folks! Hope everyone had a good Sunday. I have so much Monday stuff to do today, and am almost at the end of what can be done by email and phone, which means time to put on outside pants and go to work.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

Man, I wish I were lounging in a hotel room right now! Instead I had meetings at 9, 10, 11:15, and now 1. After that I can do some work.
