Ooh, pretty, Scrappy!

Ugh, hippo. To the exam room abandonment. Yay for hugs!

I was five minutes late for m y bus this morning, which means I was an hour late getting into the office. Sigh. But, whatever, I'm working 8 hours tomorrow so an hour less does not bother me. Also managed to not eat breakfast, though (because rushing to catch the bus and then the cafe I was kind of counting on being at the train station apparently doesn't exist anymore, so that's a bummer) and even though I had my chicken noodle soup as soon as I got here I have a feeling I will just be hungry all day no matter how much I eat.

Nice tub, Scrappy!

That story should feel extra authentic, hippo.

Co-workers: "I'm 25, I feel so old." "I know, dude, I turn 30 next week, it's weird." They moan about how the world has changed. Me: "Well, I'm sitting here laughing at both of you." "Shut up, Connie! Let me wallow in the moment!" Me: "Ok, I'll let you bask in the glow of your premature middle-aged-dom." "Yeah."

I love my geeks.

Ha, I know the feeling Connie. Half my friends are 20 somethings that are friends with my kids or teens that DH coaches. They forgive my quiet grins and shaking of the head. Yesterday a 25 yo with chiseled abs who can jump several feet in the air without breaking a sweat was telling me I needed to go to his boot camp in the park on Saturdays.

"Yeah, dude, you do have an ambulance standing by, right?"

Two hours in an exam room? Dang, hippo, that's terrible!

Ooh, and I totally want scrappy's tub, that's so cool! Jealous.

The fire is not over, but seems to have calmed down. On Tuesday, when we started, my school was less than .25 miles from the evacuation zone, but because we had students, we had to stay. We've had the past three days off which has been nice. We were hosting guest dogs but most things are back to normalish.

Timelies all!

There is a cheesecake in the oven that is for Gary's birthday party on Sunday. Tomorrow we Clean! All! The! Things!

I wanted to eat out with mac. he only wanted to go to the expensivish Italian place and I wanted burgers and beer or thai or something more chill. so now I am ordering wings for pick up and getting grumpy, because I did not eat lunch and WAHHHHHH. I just wanted to eat out.

That said, all the bedrooms are moved now and I just need to get the guest bedroom together and find places for a million things.

So, guest room? Just considering my travel options.

As you know, I am always right on top of all the current trends, not. This resulted in me having avocado toast for breakfast for the first time ever. Seriously, that was tasty. I can't imagine how I have managed to not have it before since I have had avocado trees here.
