I am on my way to the airport. It's so early. I'm too bewildered to hate everything.

this mess was yours / now your mess is mine

I am on my way to the airport. It's so early. I'm too bewildered to hate everything.

I'm at the airport, boarding in about 40 minutes. But compared to California time, this ain't so bad. (Full disclosure: since I started working from home, I NEVER get up at 6 a.m., so that alarm was brutal.)

I am not at my best when the alarm goes off at 4am. Amusingly, I also am flying to Chicago but Steph will get there long before I do.

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

Burrell, I have already forgotten how to transition from Fist Under Elbow to Repulse the Monkey. Or maybe it's Single Whip to Fist Under Elbow I've got wrong. Anyway, solidarity in not knowing what we're doing.

Back tattoos of the mother is that you are absolutely right - Ame

I finally have a tree guy coming out to look at my tree and figure out what needs to be done with a few of the branches.

Today is my Friday!!! And then Friday and Saturday will be whirlwinds of prepping for the fundraiser, complete with Plan B if it rains, Plan B sub 1 on how to keep dry, and then the event itself. Sunday, I shall sleep with the exception of getting a massage.

I’d be lying if I didn’t say that I miss them all tonight…

M & I managed to sleep through both of our alarms this morning. Luckily, we only woke up 45 minutes late, so it's not so bad, but woah.

I get hairs cut today, but that's about it. Which is good, because last night's shift was a doozy.

Because books.

I so want to know what Repulsing the Monkey is ...

Art Crawl!!!

It's a dull gray morning and I am feeling dull and gray.

Also: ouchy knees for which I blame the damp.

Cats to become a rabbit should gather immediately now here

Maybe it is like Shocking the Monkey, but more.

My boss was having some ulcer like pain, and had an upper GI and ultra-sound, and they found a mass on her liver-- so now she has to have an MRI. But they can't do an MRI until all the barium from the endoscopy is out of her system, so she has to wait a week. I couldn't take it. ANd I hope she is OK- I love my boss!
