Why don't you offer to ride behind them in your wheelchair and occasionally snap a whip at their heels to motivate them?
It's tempting.
Let him do his thing, and then you get him out. No messing with him for laughs.

Sometimes I think I might just move up to Vermont, open a bookstore or a vegan restaurant. Adam Schlesinger, z''l

What parade? Because we aren't fond of her gentrification nonsense in Northside, even though we've passed the gentrification point of no return, which blows.

The email doesn't say which parades, just the dates and times.

I either clenched my teeth last night, have a root canal-ed crown going bad (how?), sinus issues or an earache. All present the same. Hopefully was the first. And I won't do that again and this will go away. Of course, air quality is shit and my sinuses always react to that.
...but I could go get tacos this weekend or the fourth& that'll clear my brains...

She makes 19.23 an hour. I need to pay her .5 of an hour at her regular rate and .77 OT. What does that come to?
I read that a little differently than Hil. $9.62 (.5 at regular rate) plus $22.21 (.77 at time-and-a-half). So $31.83.

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.
Gluten free people, does this [link] flourless peanut butter cookie recipe look do-able? I ask because I know gluten can hide in all sorts of wacky places, so I can't promise the safety of it.

Andi, I make that one all the time, but without chocolate chips (because I'm lazy) or without salt (because the first recipe I found for the cookies didn't use salt). It works beautifully, although the dough seems unwieldy when you first mix it, but it eventually behaves. I roll the balls of dough in granulated sugar (although that's not necessary), and then I do the cross-hatching thing with fork tines. They're super yummy.

Flea, I'm so glad you all are okay!
I got to have dinner with Scola the other night, which, after an all-day migraine, made everything better.

Wah, strawberry season is over! Peach started but the first week is usually disappointing.
