Unusually and exceedingly peculiar and altogether quite impossible to describe

Instead of a birthday cake (or cupcakes), tonight I'm having a birthday waffle with whipped cream and strawberries. Because Parks and Rec.

I want it to be tonight NOW.

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

Yay birthday waffles!

It is also my coworker's birthday, Tep, so I am celebrating everywhere!

Except that one of the account people has a conflict with the new time so now my conference call is two calls...oy.

hip deep in pie

I finished my course of steroids last night and I can feel my tooth...not hurting, but throbbing. And it's tickling my sinuses. Sigh. I just want it to be better. I am still on antibiotics until Friday though...so...yay?

Happy birthday, Stephanie!

Congratulations, Shrift!

Oh, ugh, I hate that healing tickling/itchy feeling, Sue. I hope it really means it's getting better.

I really think 8:30-9 am is an awkward time to close the women's bathroom for cleaning. I've known this is the maintenance schedule for two years and I still hope that maybe today it won't be.

"Look, son, if it's good enough for Shirley Bassey, it's good enough for you."

Awww, get better Sue.

It's a blue sky sunny day in San Francisco. Come quick, shrift, before the fog rolls back in.

No camp for Matilda this week so we're hanging out, waiting for Emmett to get here. He's getting a physical before he starts work as a camp counselor at a sleepaway camp.

He's working with a couple of his closest HS friends, so that'll be fun for him, plus spending money. But he's going to be gone for six weeks, so that's pretty much the rest of the summer before he goes back to college.

Next week Matilda is in circus camp and back on the ropes that she likes best.

Still laughing!

YAY! Shrift!

Happy birthday, Stephanie.

Thanks, everybody! I wasn't actually fishing for birthday wishes; I really just wanted to talk about how much I want a waffle. Which is A LOT.
