I am a somewhat fancy airport lounge with a dinner buffet.
We can come by between classes. Usually I use that time to copy over my class notes with a system of different colored pens. But it's been pointed out to me that that's, you know...insane.

That looks interesting, Tom! Lots of calm thoughts headed your way.

Walter's was the one that was surprising since absolutely everyone was sure he was a Border Collie mix and he turned out to be German Shorthaired Pointer with nonstandard coloring and too long hair.
Ah! I had friends who have a rescue & were told it was Australian Shepherd and Beagle, and it's DNA turned out to be Siberian Husky, Springer Spaniel and some European breed they'd never heard of.
It would be interesting to do the DNA test to know how much Mi'kmaq there actually is in our family and if there's anything else besides French and Irish. I want to buy one for my sister for XMas, but they are crazy expensive.
Turns out, it's Gene Denby (they were RAs together!), and he was only doing it because Linda Holmes got sick.
I think he's my favourite PCHH fourth chair, though I mostly love them all.
Speaking of PCHH, I have been listening to the podcast My Dad Write a Porno on their recommendation, and it is so so funny. Definitely Buffistas would love it.
My plans for this weekend are entirely different than what they were Thursday. My parents are coming up to visit my aunt who is in the hospital, so that's thrown everything into disarray. Besides that, a friend was planning a combined birthday celebration...since there are 4 of us who have birthdays within a week of each other, but that got postponed, and I have to find time to prepare for this big, scary interview on Monday. YIkes!.

Yeah, my friend did one of those DNA things for her dog and it came out as half chow! Which was a shock, as the dog doesn't really have any chow-ness, other than fluffy hair. She looks like a small fluffy German shepherd.
I did 23 and me and the ancestry was zero surprises. I was hopeful, but no.
I am at a dance convention this weekend, but because I got up so early Thursday and yesterday, I went to bed basically right after watching some competitions (other people dancing) and didn't really dance myself. Oh well.

I'm pretty sure the unknown is goat. Which I was going to say but was being harassed to go to the park to eat sunflowers.

Remember that the frontier of the Rebellion is everywhere. And even the smallest act of insurrection pushes our lines forward.
Haven't been exposed as an impostor yet, but it's coming. I'm sure of it.

Tom, you'll do fine. The one thing you are NOT is an imposter.
Got a morning call from the facility today: Dad might have fallen down in the shower. However he seems ok, they called hospice and my sister checked on him. The only way to avoid this is to have 24/7 care, which he wouldn't like, so we're going to keep on keeping on.
Today's to-do list: grocery store for peaches and blueberries, pie crust for peach-blueberry pie, dry cleaner, delicate wash a bunch of sweaters, log into the new credit union account and start moving money around, do some jumping training with the dog, edit niece's grad school essay, figure out what to pack for next week (I'm going to SD for training).

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
Darby came out as a mix of Rottweiler, Miniature Schnauzer and unknown.
That just seems so logistically unlikely!

I am a woman of various inclinations and only some of the time are they to burn everything down in frustration
Right? Although with goat in the mix maybe it makes more sense.
Yay class!
Have 5k'd. Now my big decision is lunch and then nap, or just straight to nap. It's a good place to be. Spoiler alert: I thought I didn't need lunch, but now I think I will eat something.
