Today is making me want to duck and cover on my way through the parking lot.
I just think it's rather odd that a nation that prides itself on its virility should feel compelled to strap on forty pounds of protective gear just in order to play rugby.

JFC, Brenda! Horrible.
Today was a wretched Monday, starting with Loki fucking up my alarm on a day I had to leave at my usual time to make a swim at Druid. But I said fuckit and left to go swim. That part was nice. The rest can just suck it. And at the rate I'm eaten alive by mosquitos when taking out the trash, I'm damned end up with zika. And I'm not fucking checking my email tonight.

Days shrink and grow cold, sunlight through leaves is my song. Winter is long.
Ack, Sheryl! That's no good. I get the feeling maybe we should all duck and cover, just on general principles.

I'm terrifically busy with my ennui.
Boo, Sheryl.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
Oh no, Sheryl! That sucks.

I'm glad you weren't hurt, Sheryl.

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.
Sheryl, I'm glad you are ok. I hope the fuss and bother with the insurance is not too much.

So glad nobody's hurt, Sheryl, and that it didn't happen with the little guy in the car.
Brenda, how awful. What a tragedy.
I finally got some info about a training in San Diego next month -- it's going to be well out of the city center, in a hotel near a mall, maybe two malls. And we don't get to rent a car. So I'm suddenly pretty disgruntled, especially since the info says that "business casual" forbids jeans. And I'm like, seriously? I can wear jeans in my office but I can't wear it at your training? Stupid.
Sad about Gene Wilder, but it sounds like he had a better experience with AD than many people do.

Ugh, Sheryl. I'm glad no one is hurt.

Sorry, Sheryl, that sucks. Glad you're okay though.
