Oh Suzi, what a relief to have it behind you. People!!!
Now I not sure I did the right thing getting him registered.
Ha! Yeah, I understand. Just like many things in the land, you can vote whether you have a clue or not. See also, 2016.
Honestly, you meet the most appalling sort of people....

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
Australia is totally a dictatorship.
Jesse, last night I was at a team dinner that was 10 women and one guy, but my part of the industry is pretty female-centric so he hadn't really noticed!
Yeah, I don't know what this guy's old team was like, but our field is pretty female dominated, so maybe it's not a surprise. I'm just glad he seems happy and not shell-shocked.

I totally don't remember that. Which may be for the best.
I don't either. I think it was before my time. In fact, I don't even care or have an opinion on the topic!
huh.
Laura, good luck to DH on the head coach thing.

Love is stronger than death and harder than sorrow. Those who practice it are fierce like the light of stars traveling eons to pierce the night.
Oh, Suzi, what a relief!

I got back my beloved JCPenney to manage and I'm familiarizing myself with the current status of orders and forecasts. Unfortunately, in all the moving of desks and computers and whatnot, I no longer have my personal excel macros where I had stashed all my little shortcuts and tools. I feel like Willow not doing magic - typing is so slow!

I just bought a whole bunch of Girl Genius back issues. The company that ships them out is called TopatoCo, and the signature line at the bottom of their email is "TopatoCo. We Are Too A Real Business." Of course, they also say "former Tiny House Demolition Company turned world famous digital-entertainment-related merchandise cyberstore and distributor!"
I'm just happy I'm getting lots and lots of stuff to read.

I just did a passport for a 15 year old who went to elementary school with Casper (a year older than her, not a kid I knew well or anything). There's something so sweet and touching about seeing a kid you last knew as a grubby 11 year old and now he's 6 feet tall and bass-voiced and actually doing pretty okay with the whole "relating to adults and not acting like a sullen teenager" part.

Aw, that's nice, flea.
I love TopatoCo, Connie! A lot of my webcomic faves are carried there.

I did not blow away (yet.) I still have power, it only flickered off&on for about 5 minutes earlier.
But it is still fucking windy & making sounds around my house I've never heard before.
