We're not gonna die. We can't die, Bendis. You know why? Because we are so very pretty. We are just too pretty for God to let us die.

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

Hi!

I got behind about 6 weeks ago because Reasons (actually, probably more because IDEK) and when I was able to try to catch up I kept getting to only a week behind (and thus felt like I was about to catch up and should not skip) but somehow no closer. It was very Achilles and the Tortoise.

But I made it! Take that Tortoise. And Zeno. All y'all.

Anyway, been sympathizing and sending out ~ma and cheering as appropriate, but about a week behind.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

Hi -t!

I am always cheering along, even if I don't say it!

I especially love that here I can feel caught up, unlike Facebook which has a neverending list, yet manages to show me the same post 18 times, and then when I try to scroll past it just tells me there's new stuff, instead...I swear, I'm sure half my frendslist is getting married, having babies, getting cancer, and being fired, and I don't even know it because I see the same meme 18 times that I liked once and now has new likes?!?

Was it here someone was lamenting the demise of WordPerfect? 'cause I had someone this morning inquire if we had legal document forms in WordPerfect ... a lawyer, of course (not to disparage lawyers (this time) but because they seem to be the last one clinging to WP.

And, in regard to the Democratic Convention, I liked this article ... and I love the photo.

Pretty much sitting in a multihours long path of thunderstorms. I guess I'm giving up on my swim.

Yeah, that was me. WP had great legal form support and had a wonderful View Codes feature. I wonder if I still have the installation CD from around 2000.

ooh ... I remember View Codes ... it was SO helpful ... and was a great introduction to learning HTML (I still do some hand coding)
