Yay sarameg!

I am now the mother of a 12-year-old. In a bit we're taking her out for dinner at the local ramen place and possibly frozen yogurt afterward. This weekend I'll make her her favorite cake, and at some point she'll have some kind of celebration with her best friend. I feel under-planned this year, but Dylan and I lost all of last week to the flu, and AB doesn't really want a big production, so we're good.

The status is NOT quo.

Sara, that's SO GREAT! Congrats!

And yes, Gud -- you are an expert! With cred! Just don't take something on that is going to make you feel more stressed than you've already been.

AB is 12????? Unpossible.

I know, right?! And yet there she is, being all 5'2" or 5'3", being a 6th grader, and planning her career as an animator/game developer. Really not sure how it happened.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

That is amazing. Didn't you just have her??

You know how on Friday I was thinking I would have to fire someone? He gave his notice today. Problem solved.

Ugh, I wish I thought my poor performer were about to give notice.

WOO SARAMEG! You deserve all of it!

And yes, Gud -- you are an expert! With cred!

I just wanted to see that again because I'm happy that Gud realizes he is an expert and is good at stuff.

I'm just leaving work now. I am hacking away at my To Do list, but it keeps expanding like an invasive plant.

I really REALLY want to blast all over fb, but I really can't until official and I know all my coworkers' statuses, so I can filter them out if it'll cause pain.
