As usual, coming to the office for a couple of hours was a great call. I feel like I should be able to do this extra time during the week, but I just can't bear staying late. See previous conversations re: number of hours you can work in a day.

But now I'm taking myself to lunch and for a massage! And maybe I'm going to skip the party with strangers I was invited to tonight! t /self-care

Timelies all!

Mr. S has a playdate with one of his classmates later this afternoon. He's currently in his room taking a nap.(or not. At least he's being quiet.)

Lucky you, ltc has stopped napping. It's torture.

I'm hanging out with my cousin and her kids this weekend, and they're super cute. Right now though the dog has me and is like"someone who will pay attention to me! Yay!!!"

That transition to beyond naps is a tough one, SJ. I feel you on it.

Post-naps, pre-reading sounds like a nightmare.

It is. Luckily she thinks she can read. On the negative side she won't do quiet time alone in her room.

Aw, ltc, give your mom a break.

I have been feeling not quite sick but not really right for a couple of days. The idea has leapt into my mind that fried chicken would make me feel better. That doesn't seem really likely, but maybe worth a try? Would require getting dressed.

I'd recommend chicken in noodle soup form over fried if you're feeling queasy, -t.

It didn't take on me, probably largely because I hail from an interfaith family and so shit like "you shouldn't date a non-Christian; it's nice to think you can raise them up but they are more likely to drag you down" was guaranteed to just piss me off.

Where exactly is that passage in the Bible where Jesus tells his Disciples to shun nonbelievers out in the world because they might get icky heathen cooties, again?

That's a very reasonable suggestion, Matt. Would still require getting dressed, so we'll see if I'm up for it. Maybe tomorrow.
