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

I am slightly amazed that the House backed down on the ethics office.

I am quite surprised, but it makes me suspicious. What are they really planning? Though Steph makes a good case for them testing the boundaries and Paul Ryan failing.

Today I went out for a delicious lunch with a friend, and I'm making good progress on the vacation backlog at work. I'll be working late tonight, but I don't really mind it.

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

Timelies all!

Happy Birthday shrift!

Had my last physical therapy session today! Yay!

A combo of boundary testing and distracting from the fact that they're starting their attacks on the ACA today as well?

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

In other news, did I tell you people I'm a finalist for a new job? And I had always heard the benefits there were good, but man, they are really good. Since I'm over 40, they will put 10% of my salary into the retirement plan. Not a match, just in there, with vesting in 3 years. (Under 40, you get 5%.)

Dang, that's nice! My company does 3% (which I don't consider chopped liver—hey, free money!).

I'm trying not to get my hopes up, but still.
