I was born in 73, and definitely know people my age with kids from 2 to 20s, but 10-14 is the norm.
This girl at school? She told me that gelatin is made from ground-up cow's feet and that every time you eat Jell-O there's some cow out there limping around without any feet. But I told her that I'm sure the cow is dead before they cut its feet off, right?

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

Steph, I don't know if you wear a watch, but just in case, here: [link] (I'm currently trying to convince myself I don't need it.)

I'm terrifically busy with my ennui.
That baby horse is awfully soothing.

That *is* pretty great, though I haven't worn a watch in years.

The side mirrors on my car have defrosters in them. So lovely when the snow has been blowing horizontally straight into the mirrors for a couple of hours

You were a wrong baby who grew up wrong. The wrong kind of wrong. It's better you hear it from a friend.
Gah, you'd think I'd learn that editing an article on testicular cancer means that I WILL SEE BALLS.
If you print it out and stick it up in your office you can tell everyone that it's balls to the wall in there.

Mmm, eighball says Saturday shift is viable. Now I gotta wait until Sunday.
There are people holed up in hotels who will have to fly home not sure if they'll get reimbursed. So my whine is small.

Every now and then, I think I might actually be a little odd.
So I'm watching a live feed of the Senate on MSNBC with Brian Williams commenting on the impending shutdown. Strangely, I have not learned anything from this. I do have a headache, though. 18 minute to midnight, vote still open. It ain't happening, McConnell.

And we have shutdown. They're still on the Senate floor in huddles.

Welp, then it looks like I'm off the hook for shift work Monday. Regular work. Gotta wait until Sunday to see what the week looks like. And if I have to work a shift next Saturday.
