Most people is pretty quiet right about now. Me, I see a stiff -- one I didn't have to kill myself -- I just get, the urge to, you know, do stuff. Like work out, run around, maybe get some trim if there's a willin' woman about... not that I get flush from corpses or anything. I ain't crazy.

A dress should be tight enough to show you're a woman but loose enough to flee from zombies. — Ginger

Woo, sending the house-ma!

I don't have anything exciting to share for nattering -- I'm just mopping, making a pot roast and going to see two houses tonight, neither of which look super-exciting.

We are looking later this week at a house with a small pool. It's $1000 a year extra for opening, closing, chemicals and maintenance and while I would totally LIVE in it all summer, and would have people over all the time, I'm eyeballing our finances. But it won't hurt to look...and it's two blocks from our current house and we love our location.

Why did Darth Vader cross the road? To get to the Dark Side!

Fingers crossed on the house, Laura

And good luck on the house hunting, Strix

Our wings are not tired

Not too much natter worthy on my end. I'm mainly coordinating projects and trying to stay on top of bills and invoicing today. I do have a video conference in 15 minutes about some possible additional work, so hopefully that will go well.

House~ma to you Laura!

And then Ortus came and said "It's Ortin' time" and they all Orted off into the sunset

House-ma to Laura and Strix.

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

JZ, you are a wonderful sister, and a human being. None of us are perfect, and your brother loves and appreciates you and your support. Please don't beat yourself up.

Oooh, Laura, that's super exciting! I'm hoping to visit you next year in a new location!

Fingers are crossed, Strix!

Nothing really Natter-worthy here. Work continues to devour me from the bottom up.

Except birthdays for you and Pix!! I hope you are both having delightful days. Have you had a chance to celebrate together? Because if not that totally needs to happen some year.

Good luck to everyone with house needs!

I am slogging through work stuff that is so twisted and complicated AND was initially done wrong. So everyone now working on it is awesome but it still takes us so much effort to figure out how it should be, because right now it's not.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

I'm supposed to be doing mid-year reviews, for myself and others. Why the eff we do them now is kind of a mystery. We do the mid-year 8 months into the fiscal year, and then are supposed to complete the annual before the end of the FY!

I am a woman of various inclinations and only some of the time are they to burn everything down in frustration

Have been traveling all day, over my data plan limit, alas. Currently waiting for delayed train, hoping delay is not too much longer...
