Timelies all!
More rain today. The forecast shows thunderstorms all week. Ugh.
I'm sorry. You were going to ask me to choose, right? Did you want to finish?

Fandom means never having to say "But where would I wear that?"

"There are few hours in life more agreeable than the hour dedicated to the ceremony known as afternoon tea."
My mom gave me her Honda Accord when I turned 18. I think it was 7 years old at the time.

I'm terrifically busy with my ennui.
That's almost exactly my story, sj, except it was my dad's Honda, I was 19, and it might have been a little older.

My daughter is starting off with an 11 year old Honda Fit which actually has about 30,000 fewer miles than my 11 year old Ford Focus.

Why is my electric bill DOUBLE what it normally is, this month? I can't think of any big changes, other than "using the fan slightly more often"! Maybe it was a mistake?

Peak pricing?
Do you have a neighbor who might be stealing your electricity? I had some nuns living downstairs from me at one point that were unwittingly on my meter. Well, I assume unwittingly. Because nuns.

Because books.
That's what they want you to think, -t.

Devious nuns? Inconceivable.

Jesse, I'm in much the situation you are. Except my poor trainee has been flying pretty much solo since July 9! She said it's been weird & I don't doubt it. Spent 2 hours just going over stuff, but she was exhausted (having just flown in this morning from throwing her twin's weekend wedding shower.) And we don't have a good training plan; it's just braindump me. And I'm still on vacaybrain.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
I am sure we will both be fine! And our trainees, too.
