I happen to be very biteable, pal. I'm moist and delicious.

See? I gave everybody here an opportunity to tell me what a bad person I am and nobody did, because I fuckin' rule.

Recovery~ma and home-soon~ma, Dana!

ION, I have been listening to Hamilton like a crazy listening thing that listens non-stop, and today on the way home while I was listening to it on my phone two different passers-by overheard and got all excited. It was glorious.

"There are few hours in life more agreeable than the hour dedicated to the ceremony known as afternoon tea."

Tons of recovery~ma, Dana.

Scandal: Well, I called that twist so early in the season that I'm kind of disappointed to be right.

"There are few hours in life more agreeable than the hour dedicated to the ceremony known as afternoon tea."

Scandal: How many times can the Vice President be evil on this show?

Although, I didn't see those last couple twists coming. This would have been a good series finale.

All sorrows can be borne if you put them into a story. Tell me a story.

How have I not seen Hamilton yet?

Flea, I can give you a discount code for the Monaco, Gray, or Allegro hotels. It's generally 20-22% off. Otherwise, I'd say find something off the red or blue CTA lines.

Swift healing, Dana!

"I keep to a strict diet of ill-advised enthusiasm and heartfelt regret." Leigh Bardugo

Can I talk here for a minute? There's some major shit going down at work (I MEAN MAJOR) and I can't discuss it all out on FB.

To recap:

  • 1. Noah was getting picked on for having two moms and not talking about it with us.
  • 2. Katie was not hired back for her job which she had to reapply for because of the grant ending. Instead they hired some student teacher dude who can barely teach his content (math) and has never taught CS.
  • 2.5 Two of the four women on the hiring committee actively and vocally disliked Katie and to some extent me.
  • 3. I decided to leave. My new school looks kick ass but I've been fooled before.
  • 4. As a result, our kids have to move back to their former school and all that entails.
  • 5. Katie is mostly likely going to file a grievance.
  • 6. But, you guys, big time bad shit, I think is coming down on the Principal and Assistant Principal for stuff not related to this fiasco.
  • 7. Grace's nurse Mignon is taking a new job starting in a week. How will we get through the last two weeks of school?!?!

I'm tired and nervous and overwhelmed.

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.

Kat, that is chaotic, stressful, and... other not fun things.
