Sue, I am so sorry.

You know what they say about payback? Well I'm the bitch.

Go Sean!
I just finished most of the registration and interviews and tests to graduate school (it was delayed for two years - first because of Summer of Family and Friends Health and Death Problems, and then because getting one's life back in track + switching jobs after such summer takes almost a year, as I've learned.)
I'm both relieved and excited, but I learned not to expect anything for certain even if I meet all of the criteria, just give it my best and see what happens.

Our wings are not tired.
I'm so proud I came up with that as a thing to say to him, because otherwise, it would have been literally nothing.
And got a very nice picture! Well done.
Go Shir!! I certainly get how life gets in the way of progress on the school front. It took me 16 years to get my degree and still have graduate school on the list.
Lee! I've missed seeing your font.

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

Yay sean! Yay Shir!!
Jesse, what exactly did you say??? I missed that somewhere.
Last night was eventful. My friend had to call the cops on her son, while I was there. Luckily it went way better than the last time she called the cops, they were very nice and professional and respectful. But still. Thank god it's Friday.

"There are few hours in life more agreeable than the hour dedicated to the ceremony known as afternoon tea."
Over the last two days I clean out and reorganized my closet and dresser drawers. I have a ton of stuff to sell and donate. Which is unfortunately the part I suck at.

Why isn't everyone pelting me with JOY, dammit? - Zenkitty
sj, I'm still impressed as heck at the cleaning and organizing. That's where I have problems. I, unfortunately, excel at ignoring the clutter and crap around me until I have to let someone into my home - then it becomes visible but I have no time to deal with it.

And then Ortus came and said "It's Ortin' time" and they all Orted off into the sunset
According to the technical rules of Summer Fridays I shouldn't sign off until 2, but I'm working from home and all my work is done so I'm just gonna call the next 2 hours a long lunch.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
Congrats, Sean!
Yay, Shir!
Yikes, meara. I'm sorry to hear that.
I have a ton of stuff to sell and donate. Which is unfortunately the part I suck at.
Can you just donate it all, so it's just one task? (Not sure if that is possible or even helps. I can only bring a small amount of stuff to donate at once, which makes me never do a big organizing job!)
Jesse, what exactly did you say??? I missed that somewhere.
I said, "I have one friend who is going to be sad you shaved the mustache." (ie, Sophia.) He was like, That makes one person, then!
