Sometimes I think I might just move up to Vermont, open a bookstore or a vegan restaurant. Adam Schlesinger, z''l

Ugh. I am an idiot. I was supposed to teach ESOL at Refugee Resettlement today, but I accidentally set my alarm for 8 PM rather than 8 AM. That's the sort of excuse where I'd roll my eyes if one of my college students tried to use it.

but I accidentally set my alarm for 8 PM rather than 8 AM.

I've been there.

In college I was once an hour late for a final because I was so tired I slept through my alarm clock buzzing for an hour. Fortunately, we had three hours to take the final and two hours was still plenty of time.

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.

Birthday Happies Zen!

Love is stronger than death and harder than sorrow. Those who practice it are fierce like the light of stars traveling eons to pierce the night.

Now that's a party cat!

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

Ugh, you guys, I really just want to put my head on my desk. I was out late last night, and got to work this morning to discover I had double-booked myself for 9am. And then it went like that from there. I have seven meetings scheduled before 2:30 tomorrow. So I guess I'm going to skip the big fancy speaker who is coming to talk to our interns at 2:30.... zzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

I just realized I can push at least one of tomorrow's meetings to next week, so that's something.

And Tom, I finally got to your submission -- thanks! People who follow the Good Stuff, would you let me know if that kind of post shows up well? I posted it as a link, which makes the photo show up at least some of the time, but I'm not sure everyone will see it. (The story is about the Librarian of Congress.)

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

I love my son, I love my son, I love my son. He has been working down south for the last few weeks - going down on Tuesday, coming back on Friday. His room has never been...up to my standards, and my standards are not that high. But with him being gone 90% of the time, it has gotten worse. I told him a while back he needed to pick it up or I would. And that has been an empty threat until today. I just pulled 3 hampers full of dirty (I think) clothes and sheets out of him room. If it was on the floor, it went in a hamper. Load number 3 is in the washer and I still have 2 hampers full to go. Eventually I'll go back in for the obvious garbage.

I want the housekeepers to be able to vacuum and dust his room. We have two weeks to prepare. It may take that long. Dang, boy. WHY?

Happy birthday, Zenkitty! I have no cat pictures to bring. (pa rum pa pa pum) Sorry.

Jesse, when I look at the post from the app, U see the photo, but when I'm in Safari and I go to my bookmark of Good Stuff, it's just the link.
