There is a note on the reception desk that Jesus is on vacation until Jan 4. I guess that makes sense.

Fandom means never having to say "But where would I wear that?"

Timelies all!

Joining the boggling that Mac is 17.

As for retirement, not until Mr. S is in college, or at least graduated from high school. It'll probably be later than that, given I'm a federal employee and may not have much of a pension when the Republicans are done with it.

They are having a surprise retirement party for a Senior VP right now. In fact, someone just popped out and offered to watch the front desk so I could go in for a bit and fix myself a plate. I suppose I could have hung out but I haven't actually met the guy who is retiring before so I felt totally awkward and just scurried out with my food.

Good news and more good news, I got a good report on Gizmo's recovery this evening during my visit, AND one of the vet techs is thinking about taking him in now that he's moved into a new apartment. That would be pretty much ideal in terms of placement, a home with someone who takes care of animals for a living.

Our wings are not tired.

Good news, indeed! That is a delight to read, Matt.

Fingers crossed that Gizmo gets a vet-tech forever home.

I finished wreath making. Next up: pajama sewing. We are leaving for Idaho on Friday. So it will have to be done before then.

I'm terrifically busy with my ennui.

Hooray, kitty.

I wish I could retire so I could spend literally every second of every day tweeting "Fuck you" at Sarah Sanders.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

Aw, that is good news, Matt!

There is a note on the reception desk that Jesus is on vacation until Jan 4. I guess that makes sense.

I mean, they could have given him until Three Kings' Day!
