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

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.

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.

and my mother was like, "That one's easy! Obviously Jeb."

Still laughing!

YAY! Shrift!

Happy birthday, Stephanie.

Unusually and exceedingly peculiar and altogether quite impossible to describe

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.

Waffles are good, birthday waffles are better, good wishes on a birthday are free.

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.

I think I shall celebrate Steph's birthday by getting strawberry waffles for lunch.

ION, the checkout woman at Walgreens told me I look like Dan Aykroyd. Weird. And she asked when my birthday was before she would sell me sparklers. Apparently you have to be 18 to buy them here.

A young Dan Aykroyd, then. Is this an effective flirting technique?

Now I want waffles, too. Mmm, waffles.

I dunno--I was more confused than anything.

She told me than you have to be 18 to buy "anything that explodes." I decided not to mention that sparklers don't explode.
