We are Buffistas. This isn't our first apocalypse. -- Pix

My in-laws discovered the existence of dog agility this weekend by accidentally seeing it on TV, and they are blown away by this new thing.

It's hella fun, and the dogs have even more fun than the people.

I ended up at the emergency vet last night, whee, and so I'm $600 down. Here's hoping the antibiotics do a good job (the Boss has a big infected cyst in her belly), but at the moment she's not eating much and very low energy.

"Look, son, if it's good enough for Shirley Bassey, it's good enough for you."

Oy, Consuela! Quick healing to the Boss.

Matilda came home early from school with a fever and a sore throat.

Couldn't find the thermometer at first but after I put my hand on her forehead I said, "About 101, but a little higher."

Found the thermometer: 101.4.

Yeah, I've been doing this since 1996.

You were a wrong baby who grew up wrong. The wrong kind of wrong. It's better you hear it from a friend.

Yeah, I've been doing this since 1996.

Every now and then, I think I might actually be a little odd.

What Nanita said.

"roc" is totally a word.

And that is why I don't care about using hotel laundry service when I'm traveling for work! Same with taxis. No, I am not going to navigate public transport in a country where I don't speak the language.

I once took a taxi two blocks. Actually, I did it twice. In my defense, I was in heels, it was on a hill, and it was humid as all hell. I didn't want to arrive at the conference sweaty and out of breath.

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

Exactly, Nanita! Them that has, gets. And even worse, we as a culture equate having wealth with being a valuable human being so bullshit like no precooked chicken for SNAP makes sense to people. It's a whole lot of wrong.

Travel expenses I do not begrudge anyone. I don't actually begrudge the perks etc to executives, tbh, I just want that spread around to everyone.

I'm terrifically busy with my ennui.

Oh, this meeting is going to suck so much. A 6:45AM meeting, but longer and more procedural.

Our wings are not tired.

And even worse, we as a culture equate having wealth with being a valuable human being so bullshit like no precooked chicken for SNAP makes sense to people.

See also Ben Carson spending $31,561 of our dollars on a dining room set for his office while warning of the dangers of public housing being too cozy. It really turns my stomach.

Coding and Sleeping

I'd feel more comfortable if the office I was at this week wasn't wired to blow.
