Kinda thinking of offering my car to female coworker who doesn't have one but will be working the midnight to 8 shift. She walks/bikes now, but during daylight. Wouldn't be a big deal, as long as she can drive shift. Her shifts don't align with mine, so it'd be a matter of exchanging when neither of us was inconvenienced. Eh, will broach tomorrow.

That's nice of you sara meg!

I am feeling weirdly dizzy/lightheaded today. Not sure why--first I thought maybe it was because I only had coffee for breakfast (though that's not uncommon) but then I ate. Tried taking a nap, still feel weird. Wtf, body. Hoping it'll be better tomorrow

(...and it suddenly occurs to me to wonder if I took my meds this morning. I thought I did, but if not that's sure an easy explanation!)

this mess was yours / now your mess is mine

The emotional labor of remembering to remind your husband to check that his suit is clean for his niece's wedding this weekend, and that a dress shirt is pressed and if not, figure out the closest dry cleaner, and no, I cannot drop it off just because I work from home because I WORK from home and you should have planned ahead and and and?

Is EXHAUSTING.

My goddamn dress is clean and pressed. No one reminded me to do that. WHY CAN'T HE REMEMBER. Jesus.

"And that's why God Almighty gave us fire insurance and the public defender".

Popping in just to say hi and wish a shana tova (Happy New Jewish Year) to all those who observe it.

This place is still dear to me. You're always in my thoughts and I wish you best, 'istas, regardless of calendars of any sort.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

Shana tova, Shir! And everyone.

The status is NOT quo.

Shana tova!

I’d be lying if I didn’t say that I miss them all tonight…

Shana tova Shir, Nilly, and everyone.

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

The lurkers were supporting me in email last night when the depression was getting too black for comfort, and it helped so very much.

I'm so sorry, Amy. I wish you light.

Lisa, health~ma for your uncle, and love and strength to you and your family.

I'm so glad we have each others' backs, both when things are bad as well as good.

And that we managed to try to never leave you unaccompanied.

You didn't. I didn't realize it until much later, but it was almost seamless. Someone that day asked if you all were family, and without hesitation I said yes.

Sara, that's a lovely thing to offer.

I hope you're feeling better today, meara.

Ugh, Tep. I'm sorry.

Shana tova to all!

Our wings are not tired.

::clutches Steely Dan closer to adoring heart::

The color I am picking for the house paint is Steely Gray and this pleases me for bringing Steely Dan to mind.

Wishes for peace for those grieving or suffering. I either forgot or was unaware of the Buffista protection of Maria. I am at the same time so grateful, and not at all surprised. Thank you Buffista family for being you.

lisah, sending waves of ~ma toward your dear uncle.

Thank you sarameg for being a caring person.

Shana tova!

Every now and then, I think I might actually be a little odd.

WHY CAN'T HE REMEMBER.

I sympathize greatly with both of you! I myself can't remember shit, like right now I have an alarm set to remind me three times of the doctor appointment that's in 45 minutes, because I will forget. I would drive an organized person crazy. Whereas, my niece who's more ADHD than me and can't remember to do the same chores every day? Drives me crazy.
