I rented The Big Short which I really wanted to see since I've read the book. But I never ended up with any time to watch it.

I kinda think I'd rather have Trump than Cruz. I really don't know what Trump would do, but I'm pretty sure what Cruz would do.

I am happy to report our Utah relatives despise Trump. Made conversation ever so much more pleasant.

Sometimes I think I might just move up to Vermont, open a bookstore or a vegan restaurant. Adam Schlesinger, z''l

The way Trump rallies his supporters scares me. A large group of people at a Trump rally seems a lot more dangerous than a large group of people at a Cruz rally. I'm equally worried about what each of them would do with the actual powers of the office, but I'm a lot more worried about what Trump would get masses of people to do than what Cruz would get masses of people to do.

Yes, at 9 am on a Sunday... It's the day of the Southie parade, so all-day drinking probably isn't all that surprising.

Really don't wanna go driving this morning, about an inch down...

Today is the only day I'll actually be at work this week (although I will be working from home in between doctor's appts and elementary school assemblies) and it is already too Monday for me to care.

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

Just going back to getting up in the dark after sleeping until dawn for the weekend is no fun.

Love is stronger than death and harder than sorrow. Those who practice it are fierce like the light of stars traveling eons to pierce the night.

I wish I could find a quick and easy guide to the diabetic exchanges diet. One of the people I support is being put on a weight loss eating plan that is based on exchanges rather than counting calories. I understand the exchanges reasonably well, but I don't think I understand it well enough to explain it to the other staff there who do not know how to or will not bother to count calories accurately enough to make the previous weight loss plan work. (It went well enough previously when there was another staff memeber there who knew how to count calories, but since that other staff member left and I am only at that house two days a week... well, I just can't do it all by myself. And for some reason, bosslady, who usually listens to me on stuff like this, did not respond to my suggestion months ago to have a dietician the newer staff on counting calories and serving sizes.) I looked at some videos on Youtube, but the one that was most promising had audio issues. The others were too long and complicated.

Why did Darth Vader cross the road? To get to the Dark Side!

I had an insomnia attack last night for the first time in at least a year. Was unable to fall back asleep from 3-5 something despite multiple doses of melatonin, instead I just kept getting more and more anxious and woke up DH so I just got up and took care of my email. Finally at almost 6 I was tired enough I needed go back to bed and slept until my alarm went off at 7:15. Ack. Not a promising start to my going back to work and the kids' spring break when I'm waking up in the middle of the night miserable.
