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.
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.
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.
Oh, this meeting is going to suck so much. A 6:45AM meeting, but longer and more procedural.
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.
I'd feel more comfortable if the office I was at this week wasn't wired to blow.
