Yes, there is. There's a hurry, Xander. I'm dying...I may have as few as fifty years left.

Oh man, I want a nap. I really need to get my iron levels checked.

My son has started his EMT class and he was so excited when he got home last night. There are only 9 people in the class and he said the instructor is wonderful and snarky. I'm really looking forward to him having a good school experience.

Tonight he graduates out of the search and rescue program. He can still participate in some of the missions as a graduate, but it isn't the same.

I'm enjoying a day full of my very favorite work task, dealing with image permissions red tape. Ah well, at least I got the info for the really nightmarish fine art permissions last year, so I'm just re-using those figures in the current report.

I had more breakfast than usual at the regular time this morning, and I was still ravenous by 11. WTF, body? I'm not up to that much running yet, so it's not like I'm working up a serious calorie deficit.

We won’t stop until everyone is gay.

Calli, any time I start to work out I am starving all the time ridiculously. Even if I just went to an extra yoga class or something. Drives me bonkers!

I am having second breakfast right now AIFG!

My eldest nephew started 7th grade today. *brain explodes*

My eldest child starts 7th in a week! *brain explodes too*

My baby girl is going to be senior next year. It's really hard to believe.

Shocking!!

I adulted today! We officially signed all the documents for our much-needed refi. But I think it will be several months at least before we begin our even more needed remodel.

Having tea and jell-o right now. IFG, but it kinda makes me feel like I ought to be at home on the couch with a blanket watching daytime TV.

That's very exciting about CJ, Suzi! I hope graduating doesn't leave too big a hole for him to adjust to.

I think between the EMT course, which is 8 instruction hours a week and his Fire Science program which is 12, he will be plenty busy. Plus, he can still respond to searches if/when he wants.

All his classes are EMS/Fire Science except for one math - trig and one psychology - psychology of death and dying. Trig is the only one I'm worried about.

"Faded like the lilac, he thought."

My ex-boyfriend's daughter is 15. Of course, my other ex's kid is what, like, 19 now or something. It's ridiculous, this whole passage of time thing.

Good for CJ.
