In two months I'll be lounging in a hotel room in Vegas, alternating with lounging by a pool in Vegas, alternating with wandering incredibly silly shopping forums in Vegas.
Can't even shout, Can't even cry. The Gentlemen are coming by. Looking in windows, knocking on doors. They need to take seven, and they might take yours. Can't call to mom, can't say a word. You're gonna die screaming but you won't be heard.

And then Ortus came and said "It's Ortin' time" and they all Orted off into the sunset
I'm home after 6 hours wrangling 2nd graders at our district STEM fair. Our class had 12 kids participate (on one project!) so there was a lot of cat-herding to do. I should be logging on to my work computer now since I have about 3 hours to myself, but I'm so tired I'm not sure I can be trusted to send professional sounding emails. (And I did schedule this as a full personal day off, so. Also I have to dye my hair. PRIORITIES I HAZ THEM.)

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
I did just book a trip to go to NC to stay with my nieces and nephew there so their parents can take their first, ever overnight trip together without the kids since their eldest was born almost 17 years ago!
What a great thing to do with your time, though!
But what should I get for lunch?
Burrito. t /scola

Not a burrito, but I am getting Frontera Grill! Guac and chips and a corn tamale plus limeaid. Yum!

Excellent choice! There's also Xoco if you're in the market for a torta.

Omg. It is freezing freaking cold in here. The AC is on blast. I think after work (since I'll be back here Tuesday and Wednesday) I have to hit up Old Navy or somewhere and hope there's a super cheap fleece on sale. This is ridiculous.

I got a Panera broth bowl for lunch, which was good except that now I am wearing a nontrivial portion of it. I am having such a Monday today.

Fandom means never having to say "But where would I wear that?"
Timelies all!
Mothers' Day dinner went reasonably well, considering that the restaurant was overbooked. Our server was very nice, and did a lot to make up for the waiting we had to do. Only problem was when a different server tripped as he passed our table and splattered me with ketchup. I washed the top when I got home and it looks like it all came out.
