this mess was yours / now your mess is mine

I was going to say my brother, but then we joke about shit like that in our family. Plus he's been sober for 8 weeks exactly as of today, so I guess he no longer qualifies for Tony Stark status.

Oh! Exciting news! There's one more great-nephew on the way right now! I just saw on FB that Tim's niece is at the hospital and is in labor with baby #2. So exciting!

And what's totally weird but I swear I'm not making up is that last night I dreamed about holding a baby and trying to teach it a basic vocabulary. (It was like a 3-month-old, so dream!me was pretty optimistic.)

Cats to become a rabbit should gather immediately now here

Ovarial would sound nicer. Is Chomsky a good speaker?

Oh- I haven't gone (yet)- I just keep getting emails regarding Noam Chomsky's seminal-ness. Blech.

I also just added Kim Kelly to a contract. It made me laugh, but not as much as the woman whose email address is tpaine. We also have a Sharon Stone working here.

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

Luckily I got everything taken care of after work, so I am now the owner of a new Mazda 3!

Mazda 3s are ridiculously popular here in Australia. For the last three years it's been fighting with the Toyota Corolla for our best-selling car. (We have a Corolla.)

Colleagues, I admit that I'm a little cranky today, but you seem to be making an extra effort to get on my bad side. I recommend you cease before I threaten to cut you.

No love,
me

Yay! Tim's niece had her baby (that was fast) -- a whopping 10 pounds, no lie. I winced when I read that.

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

I also have a Corolla.

I'm not going to start any new tasks now. I'm leaving on time today, dammit.

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

Congrats to your bro, Steph!

eta And Tim's niece!

It's 73 degrees in here and I'm freezing. What the heck is wrong with me?
