Doesn't winter seem more like archiving season?

I know no one else cares, but tennis is very exciting right now.

I care! I just keep forgetting that Wimbledon is going on right now when I go into the moving rabbit hole.

Cats to become a rabbit should gather immediately now here

Andy Murray on Cute Overload, right? Pretty cute.

Yes! The last time I was around professional tennis, it was Bjorn Borg and Vitus Gerulitais and Jimmy Connors and John McEnroe. My Uncle watched. I thought Bjorn Borg was cute, and I thought Gary from thirtysomething looked like him.

Not so nice is that I'm about to ruin a Friday morning for a bunch of people because of a series of unfortunate events and an upset foreign government. - shrift

Sounds like TSA needs another housecleaning. They probably would've stolen if you had anything good in there. Boo.

ATL had a problem with baggage handlers in the not-so-distant past too, IIRC. There was good stuff in there! Lots of high-end makeup. Just the 2 Naked palettes are worth more than $100.

Tennis? Oh yeah. There's an LPGA event happening in Lancaster so my local sports info is overcome with that. Yay for having women golfers back in the area though!

Sophia, they get paid more, but it's not necessarily enough to live in the city on their own. Roommates and group houses are things, at least in DC.

I remember watching McEnroe beat Borg live on Wimbledon. That was one incredible match.

And then, tennis moved away from wood rackets, which ruined the finesse game, and it got more boring for me.

Jack is definitely becoming comfortable here and his puppyness is coming out. He destroyed his crate, breaking out of it last night. He didn't mess with anything in the house - but absolutely ruined the crate. Then today he ate K-Bug's laptop cord. Oh, puppy.

K-Bug took her board test this morning and is now SURE she failed it. She gets results in a couple of weeks. It is going to be a tense couple of weeks.

There's a German player, Dustin Brown, who was playing a serve and volley game. I was excited!

Always Anti-fascist!

Gary did totally look like Borg.

Still pissed about the way they killed off Gary.

Ugh. Just sent a pretty bitchy email to my manager but honestly it is not my problem that they didn't give me guidance two weeks ago, and then didn't actually DO anything about the issue until today. And all of the documents are on our shared drive, she just wanted me to move them to a different folder? Seriously? Do it yourself lady, it'll take you less time, and I have other parts of this "emergency" to deal with.

Days shrink and grow cold, sunlight through leaves is my song. Winter is long.

I love you, Scola.
