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.

It's certainly in better repair than the Italian village or Scottish island we've considered.

Looks great msbelle, but it better come with a staff, because none of us are keeping it clean!!

I ordered a new computer online and my credit card texted me to be like "is this fraud? It seems like fraud..."

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

For those of you watching the Tonys, those bottle walls behind Christine and Patty? That's what my crew installed 1/2 mile of LED tape in last year.

this mess was yours / now your mess is mine

Mom is being released from the hospital today. She's just zipping along in terms of general recovery. She has to be unbelievably careful of the incision until it heals -- the amount of precautions she has to take is enormous -- but she's already taking small walks at a fairly decent pace (a moderate stroll, let's say) with someone keeping her steady. And doesn't have any pain. How wild is that???

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

That's amazing, Steph! Good for her.

Librarian Warlord

That is wild, Steph - I'm so glad she's healing so well.

It is 82 degrees in my office and throughout the library and the jerks in Building Services are in no rush to help us out. I am melting, and I have a meeting with the Dean at 10:30. I bet his air conditioning is working, though.

Yay, Steph's mom! Wonder Woman powers might run in th family.

Sparky, maybe the dean will give ice cream? Yeah, I didn't think so either, but putting the idea out there for the universe to deliver to him can't hurt.

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

Yay, Teppy's mom!

Thanks everyone. I feel better today, and ltc seems to be calmer than she was last night too.

And then Ortus came and said "It's Ortin' time" and they all Orted off into the sunset

You guys, my baby sister went to the Tony's last night, and her show (Great Comet) won for lighting and scenic design!!! (Personally, I think it also deserved to win for choreography and lead actress, but it's tough being an ingenue going up against Bette Midler.)
