If you're going through hell/keep on going/don't slow down/keep your fear from showing/you might be gone/'fore the devil even knows you're there

Yeah, it's really handy for deglazing and other things where you only need a small amount and don't want to crack open a whole bottle of wine.

Wheee, financial milestone! For the first time in a decade I've cracked five figures in savings. That'll change once I pay for my parents' flood insurance and my vacation this fall, but it does reassure me that I'm not entirely following the Grasshopper plan of adulting.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

Go, Matt!

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

Wow, Matt, that's great!

-t, I don't know Playing Guitar but maybe my teacher calls it a different name? It sounds like you are at a section that I find very hard, I do not have it down yet. The punch and the groin kick, yes?

You were a wrong baby who grew up wrong. The wrong kind of wrong. It's better you hear it from a friend.

but it does reassure me that I'm not entirely following the Grasshopper plan of adulting.

You can only store up whatever you can snatch from your Sensei's hand?

Maybe, we haven't gotten to the groin kick if so. Play Guitar is like lift hands but stepping backwards, if that helps? It is a tricky bit, for sure.

That sounds like a terrible plan--have to hope Sensei had something good in his hand! :) Go Matt!

I am trying out the coworking space today--the first thing I dislike about the new job: 8am teleconferences three times a week. And the only one that I control and could theoretically change is one with people calling in from Europe, so 8am here is 5pm there, and I can't make it later. Grr!

I am so familiar with these time zone problems.
