The man who writes up the weather for the Salt Lake Tribune obviously enjoys his work
Whether emotions or forecasts, perhaps Sigmund Freud had the truth of it when he opined: "Neurosis is the inability to tolerate ambiguity."
There will be no uncertainly or gnawing doubts about Utah’s summer when it officially begins Saturday, ushered in by Friday’s clear, sunny skies and 90-degree highs. On Thursday, the forecast called for the mercury rise to near 80.

I'll have to check him more regularly
So, the higher-level editor position with the AMA that I mentioned a week or two ago? My boss just sent out an email to the freelance staff announcing that [Other Editor] is leaving and that I've agreed to take the position. (Which I had; it's just weird to read it as fact.) So...I guess I'm promoted and shit. I believe it will start in mid-July or August.
I'm still slightly terrified that I'll fail horribly (despite the fact that I was an editor in a medical-related field for 18 years), but also making Paul Gross arms (internally).
I am making Paul Gross arms for you externally. Also Kermit arms. Maybe some other kinds of celebratory arms.

All my arms are celebratory, Steph. You're going to do great.
Woooooot, woooooot Teppy!!!!
Man, I want to crawl back in bed. Unfortunately I have a meeting in a couple of hours that I have to prep for and attend.
Congrats, Tep!

Hi yall!
I have a friend who is in the hospital and will be for awhile, she's pretty sick. She loves romance novels, and I know nothing of romance novels. Can I get some recs for new titles? She isn't likely to have anything that has come out in the last couple of months.
Absolutely! Do you know how steamy (or sweet) she likes them?

I can't think of anything recent, but if she hasn't read the Vicki Lewis Thompson "Nerd" series, then those are really fun. (There's no real order that you have to read them in -- they're thematically linked, but they're not the same characters or a continuing story or anything.)
