That's my girl, large and in-charge. Okay, teensy-weensy and in charge.

I'm terrifically busy with my ennui.

Down here, trash is often labeled in Spanish as well.

this mess was yours / now your mess is mine

At my old office, we had big orange stickers to put on large trash items, and they read "TRASH / BASURA".

Em is heading into her last year of high school. It's crazy. Leif will be a sophomore.

Impossible! I thought for sure you meant they were taking the ACT in that whole "kids in middle school sometimes take in order to get fancy summer college programs and stuff"!!!

Which makes oodles of sense. If the Wet Floor placards can be multi-lingual, other stuff should be.

I have gotten way too comfortable with monoculturalism. I need to kick myself in the brain more and get out of my comfort zones. I'm still not eating a lengua burrito. I've picked up that much Spanish living here to know what the menu board is saying.

All sorrows can be borne if you put them into a story. Tell me a story.

There must be some kind of time warp happening. That shouldn't be possible.

The lost sheep grow teeth, forsake their lambs, and lie with the lions.

Our trash stickers here are in English, Spanish, and Bosnian.

They still haven't talked salary, but they're starting the background check, so. I asked if maybe he should bring it up, but his recruiter has advised against it.

"Big Trouble in Little China" is coming to Netflix!

Though I already have the DVD.

Fandom means never having to say "But where would I wear that?"

Timelies all!

More rain here.
