I'm glad you're able to do that, Theo.
msbelle, rest and take care of yourself.
Wash: So, two days in a hospital? That's awful. Don't you just hate doctors? Simon: Hey. Wash: I mean, present company excluded. Jayne: Let's not be excluding people. That'd be rude.

Timelies all!
Sorry about the car problems, Theo.

ltc and I had lunch with TCG. Today is his first day at his new job, and I'm already loving it. Even if he has to go to a meeting tonight and tomorrow night.

A friend of mine has started painting, and he's not bad. He's wanting to sell some to finance a trip to New York, and he just produced one that has a gorgeous sky and intriguing landscape. I just negotiated a price over Facebook, but he can't ship it until it's dry. I feel so Renaissance art patron.

I swear, I had intentions to get things done today
I scheduled a flu shot and did a couple of work things, and now I'm full on "But I already did something today!"
In other news, I was talking with my mom last night. There must be some human trafficking fearmongering going on somewhere, because I told her that human traffickers ain't snatching middle class white girls WHO WOULD BE MISSED from the goddamn mall, so maybe ratchet down the worry about your grandchildren.

I did some banking and sorted some recycling and now it's rainy and cold and I just want to nap.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
This afternoon was basically my one shot all week to get work done, and yet I've wasted most of it! Oh well.

Also, I've written 55 of the 75 postcards I volunteered to write for the ACLU to send to voters who didn't vote in the last midterm election. I get to feel smug about that, right?

I got a fair bit of the work I planned to do done today. Now to swing by the fancy schmancy pet store to get my cat his anti-hairball goop, and then home to decant my cold brew coffee concentrate. I figure having several days worth of that handy in case of power outages would be a good plan.

Life moves pretty fast. You don't stop and look around once in a while, you could miss it.
The curriculum consultant came to my class today to give me feedback. I was worried that she was going to say that I just basically suck, but she couldn't get them to focus either! She actually said after class that she was rattled by them. She said they are an extremely difficult group but that she feels I can handle them with a little more work.
