Yes. Lucky for you, people may be in danger.

I often pause from looking at the computer to looking at my phone. But I don't think that counts....

I haven't trusted science since I saw the film "Flubber."

I'm sorry, Liese. I'm glad you were there.

Huh. My review cycle for last year is supposed to start...huh. About the time they hopefully won't be my employer & I'll have a new one?

I have second floor plumbing! And the roofer came out just as I was signing the bill. I should have an estimate for that later today.

So sorry for your loss, Liese. That's good you were able to be there.

Yesterday I was working in DC so my evening started with 1.5 hour drive home. It wasn't too bad of a commute because we didn't leave the office until 6:30, though. Also, my friend drove so I could just chill in the passenger seat and talk to her about communication strategy so I can also charge that commute time! Then Bob made dinner so I got to sit on couch with a glass of wine and get fed while I sent out donation request letters to all my linkedin contacts. So, yeah, I've got it pretty easy I guess.

A 10 minute trip to the DMV seems like god smiling on you. If you believe in god, of course.

Every now and then, I think I might actually be a little odd.

I'm so sorry for your loss, Liese. Your dad sounds like a wonderful man. I'm glad you were able to be there with him.

I DO literally spend hours just looking at a computer! I really need to make more of an effort to do that 20-20-20 eye resty thing.

Me too. What's the 20-20-20 thingy?

I am so far behind at work, y'all, and I don't even know how. I've been working so much. I feel like I'm drowning over here.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

I'm so sorry, Liese.

I'm sorry, Liese.
