We can come by between classes. Usually I use that time to copy over my class notes with a system of different colored pens. But it's been pointed out to me that that's, you know...insane.

-t, apparently my dad is back on the county water board. Let's hear it for our dads' second/third/fifth careers!

I'm pretty much certain he's always going to be running something outside the house in retirement. I knew he was never going to be the leisurely retired guy. Oh, and he's a LWV volunteer now after accompanying my mom to a meeting where she got appointed cochair of something.

I'm glad. Couple years ago he pretty much backed off everything because of/ possible depression caused by the maybe stroke. Not a great plan. He's been sounding happier lately and honestly, the past 2 weeks when they had the boys, he was practically gleeful.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

What's the job, Strix? I mean, I've heard good things about the work from dealers in other casinos, but I'm guessing it's a different kind of position... You can't beat the location, at least!

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

Low glycemic chocolate oatmeal cranberry cookies cooling. It's okay to eat the whole batch today to celebrate a good interview, right?

God, this cooling period is torture. The smell.

I am a woman of various inclinations and only some of the time are they to burn everything down in frustration

It's okay to eat the whole batch today to celebrate a good interview, right?

That's what low glycemic means, right?

Mom & Dad are also heading out of town for a weekend in Lassen at least partially to avoid going to a fundraiser for one of their friends who is running for mayor. So the political career will not be all encompassing.

I look more rad than Lutheranism

I suspect bigass casinos have some pretty serious Info Sec going on. (I hope!)

I should have pre-cooled the bedroom before coming up here. Alas, I used to be better at handling heat-and-humidity than this....

I just learned what FTW and SMH really mean from Emily nussbaums twitter. I am old. Also, she was on table talk buffistas, right?

It's Cyber Security Engineering Manager. So, yeah serious Info Sec! They want to interview him next week, and I'm hoping Skype is OK with them...unless they pay for it!

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

OMG those cookies sound amazing, ita.

Also, she was on table talk buffistas, right?

That's what my brain says, but my memory is distinctly spotty.

Sophie, no worries. I had a friend who had to learn what DTF means the hard way: by using it incorrectly on FB and watching as the raised eyebrows began to appear.
