ED said that if (male) boss couldn't attend the arborist tomorrow, he wanted the (male) facilities manager to do so, because he wanted someone other than me (female) to be on hand.
It took me two days to remove the inferred sexism out of his demand and to see it as "I want one of these other two qualified staff to have glorified babysitting duty so that you can do your actual job that I trust only you to do". My knee-jerk pessimism strikes again and I wish I'd stop.
I need help justifying a hot fudge sundae as big as my head.
Calcium & protein! It's practically health food!
Eat it because of all the poor sad people who don't have hot fudge sundaes as big as their head. Eat it for them, Allyson. Eat it for them.
What Zenkitty said. Also, by "them" I mean "me".
Poor sad people like me, for whom ice cream makes painfully ill!

OK, I got the instructions on how to transfer my triathlon registration. I think I am actually going to transfer to a 5K that is meant to be run with dogs, because that sounds so fun, and maybe put off the triathlon until Spring rather than try to do the October one. Which makes me feel like maybe I am malingering or sandbagging or something, but what the hell, I am only doing any of this racing stuff because I want to so who's gonna judge?
Wow, dcp, that's beautiful!
Theo, you could always get chickens. I'm given to understand that they think wasps, yellowjackets, etc. are delicious. If the crumpled paper bag doesn't work out, I mean.
I am having the weirdest issue on google image searches - the whole page flips and I cannot scroll.
ION - Jesse - is there a submit link for eyecandy?
I am seriously pretty boy focused right now.
