"Look, son, if it's good enough for Shirley Bassey, it's good enough for you."

Owie! Poor Franny.

One of my friends just had the same deal with her HS age daughter who had 6 adult teeth which had not descended down and nobody had apparently noticed this fact.

They did four recently and put on braces and they'll do her top fangs over the summer.

Matilda's got some crazy issues with overcrowding in her mouth that are going to cost us, I know.

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.

Strix, I'm glad things are going well.

I make myself leave the room when coworkers load the dishwashers at work. Otherwise the effort of not "fixing" it for them is too stressful. Unless they ask for my help. I like when they ask for help.

I am at the airport! Fingers crossed that Customs in Chicago doesn't make me miss my connecting flight.

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

I hope you made it, shrift!

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

Ugh, I think my one good candidate for an open position is ghosting. I emailed him Wednesday to come back in for a third round of interviews, and he hasn't responded. I guess I have to call to be sure.

Thanks! I just made it to my connecting gate with 5 minutes to spare. Customs wasn't that bad, but they made me go back through Security again. Boooo.

I'm terrifically busy with my ennui.

Aw, man, the magic doughnut fairy didn't bring doughnuts this morning.

My boss is taking a vacation day and I have a question that I don't know who else to ask. Hm. Maybe I'll wait and see if my grandboss comes around to say hi and ask him...

Back through Security after going through Customs? That's dumb. But glad you made it!

Oy, Jesse. Good luck with that.

Doughnut fairy needs to stop slacking.

"I remember when they eventually introduced that drug kingpin who murdered people and smuggled drugs inside snakes and I was like 'Finally. A normal person.'” —RahvinDragand

Overslept by an hour this morning—the combination of whiny cat meowing constantly outside my bedroom and chill cat getting snuggly after my alarm went off inside did me in.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

Here's a learning from this week: squash bread with peanut butter is a more satisfying breakfast than an English muffin with cheese. So I guess I'll make more bread this weekend, because I definitely have more squash!
