Our wings are not tired.

I have my physical this morning. Ugh. So hungry and uncaffeinated.

I'm still getting used to the idea of my 15 year old kid starting an internship at DST Systems (a technology firm) this summer. I'm not sure exactly what he'll be doing. He's apparently the star of his software engineering class, but there's so much he doesn't know.

I had a medical thing yesterday and I feel a bit like I've been run over by a bus. I was under orders not to drive or do any work yesterday, but I did do a little work on the new b.org because that kinda seems like recreation.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

It's tricky when your hobby looks like someone's work, but don't do work!

I hope the medical thing went well, Gud. Thanks for everything you do for the board.

A friend of mine named her daughters using Irish Celtic spellings. I am not quite up to speed on connecting the letters with the pronunciations, but it's not like I write to them.

I just opened a checking account at my son's employer affiliated credit union for him.

It's great that he has a credit union option. (And a mom who gets him set up there.) I've had much better experiences with my credit union than I ever had with a regular bank.

I'm terrifically busy with my ennui.

I'm going to upgrade my irritation level with my coworker to "I AM GOING TO FUCKING KILL YOU STOP COMPLICATING EVERYTHING I AM ON VACATION STARTING THURSDAY AND I AM NOT GOING TO WORK MYSELF TO DEATH JUST TO PLEASE YOU."

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

So, irritation level fuchsia? Have I got that right?

Recovery~ma, Gud! I hope the kid's internship is a great experience for him.

Zero desire to work today. Much desire to go back to bed.

Fuchsia is probably the color of my face right now, so yeah.

I'm not going on vacation for six weeks and I'm still counting down.

Wordy McWord.

I'm supposed to be on vacation Thursday, but I guess we'll see how much work I end up doing anyway.
