That's kind of a good not-nixing-it rule of thumb. I need to do that shit anyway, because I have got to get my sleep hygiene in order. I might try that.
I haven't managed the sleep hygiene yet, but I am reading more books!
Like any of that's enough to fight the Dark Master. Bator.

So come, my friends, be not afraid/We are so lightly here/It is in love that we are made; In love we disappear

"Faded like the lilac, he thought."
True! And I like books, so that's good!

Ann, that's a ferret.
I did not realize how many people have recorded versions of Viva Las Vegas .
Perhaps my favorite Elvis movie. Not least because Ann-Margret gave as good as she got. Exhibit A: The end of "The Lady Loves Me."

Husband has a second phone interview with the Nashville people on Monday.
Woot! Fingers crossed, Dana!
Actual people already living in Nashville: I will come visit you this summer!
Hooray! Any idea when? We will probably be in Massachusetts for around 2-3 weeks in July.
I am on the struggle bus today. I still have two classes to teach after lunch, which is unfortunate since I'm kind of done working for the day already.
Same here, Pix. We had a rough night last night (older child pitched a royal fit at bedtime, screaming and crying until almost an hour past when she's usually asleep; husband had a bad day at work, got stuck in bad traffic on the way home, is coming down with a cold; baby was up from 10:30-midnight), so we all could have used a little more sleep this morning, but instead the eldest woke up at 5:45 and refused to go back to bed despite being super tired and whiny, then later pitched another royal fit over getting dressed for school; I lost my cool, yelled at her, and now feel terrible about how I handled things both last night and today. So, I haven't exactly been very focused on work today, between sleepiness and self-flagellation. Oy.

K-Bug and I have slept the majority of the day away. Thankfully work wasn't an issue, just handled a few things and then I'm turning in my timesheet. So nice to be feeling better.

I'm working a camp in Indiana for most of the summer, so I'm thinking about bookending that with Nashville. If so, it'd be the last week of May and/or the first week of August. Partially pending B.org adjacent J's tenant schedule.

Excellent! We'll be here for sure in May, and likely in August as well.

Oh honey, the mentally unwell people have been in the fanbase since Game Changers was Stucky fanfiction on the internet. The calls have been coming from inside the house the whole time!
Be sure to give me a heads-up, I'd love to drive over for a mini f2f again.

Not so nice is that I'm about to ruin a Friday morning for a bunch of people because of a series of unfortunate events and an upset foreign government. - shrift
Goddamnit, I really need to stay caught up in here. Every time I'm not, bad things happen.
{{{Drew}}} I wish I could say or offer something more.
Sara, I hope your aunt recovers as well as possible. Much travel~ma to your mom. (Side note: don't let me blather on about my trivial stuff when shit is going on with you. I feel like a tool.)
Glad everyone is ok, Suzi.
JZ, I hope you get some relief soon.
I gave up sugary sweets and fried foods for Lent. I'm doing better on the fried foods side than the sweets, though I have avoided candy in all forms. (Does a chocolate cupcake Luna bar or chocolate chip cookie dough LARA bar count as sweets? If they don't, I'm doing much better at avoiding sugar than I initially thought.)
