I felt the Buffistas would use it wisely.

You were a wrong baby who grew up wrong. The wrong kind of wrong. It's better you hear it from a friend.
Well, she was a Mormon in Utah. A different level of swear-acceptance, I imagine, than your standard Brit or Aussie.
It was Mormons with whom I had my infamous run-in of buggery, so to speak. Oh, as memorialised here: WindSparrow "Coffee On My Monitor Again" Dec 15, 2010 9:50:42 pm PST

I am a woman of various inclinations and only some of the time are they to burn everything down in frustration
Oh, man, Dana, that is a lot. Good thoughts to the family.
The Apples in Honey Custard were a hit, although my one cube neighbor guessed that it was some kind of savory cheese tart with garlic stuck into it, which of course now I have to try to concoct because that sounds pretty delicious. Not NOW now, sometime after now.

Why did Darth Vader cross the road? To get to the Dark Side!
Yummy choices! Although apologies to meara, as I am likely to make it to Glendale far sooner than I am to Seattle. Mmmm... dumplings...
So my possible Ginormous Work Headache is that my desktop hard drive is dying and it appears that the files on it were not migrated over to the new university-run servers even though I followed their directions. So I may or may not have lost 10+ years of data. Ta da!
I'm trying to quell my panic by reminding myself that lots of the materials are on my personal computer and hard copies of almost everything is filed away somewhere. Rec letters will need to be written from the top, but oh well.

And Dana, I am so sorry. Much ~ma to your family.

Oh, no, Burrell! Like you need that.
Perhaps I should disclaim that I do not know anything about Din Tai Fung per se, but I am so very pro dumpling in general that I feel comfortable endorsing just about any plan that includes eating more dumplings.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
Oh jeez, Burrell! Here's hoping things worked like they are supposed to.

I must obey the inscrutable exhortations of my soul—Calvin and Hobbs
I'm sorry, Dana. I hope your MIL's surgery goes as well as possible.
I dropped by a nearby drugstore today and got my flu shot. Partly to avoid the flu, partly to contribute to herd immunity, but mostly so I can feel as good as possible about giving antivaxxers the side-eye.
I also patched an 18" x 8" hole in the side of my recliner with a bit of fabric, thread, and a funky, curved upholstery needle. And I made butternut squash-ginger soup with squash and ginger from my CSA. So, for someone not currently employed I had a fairly productive day.

Yeah, I'm really hoping they can get the files off the old machine, and fix it so my stuff is actually getting saved to the big ol' server like it's supposed to. Funny thing is my machine was acting like it was saving the mirror files onto the server in that everything slowed down to molasses when I tried to save a file. OF course maybe that was just the first sign that my hard drive was dying.... that's not a good path to go down, is it?
