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

It's either that or, if I put on my wildly optimistic hat, whoever got it is going to surprise us with a cake and just isn't telling in advance. I work with some dedicated moochers, though.

I may call them out on Monday. Not by name, of course, just "I know someone got the baby, I expect to see a cake by the end of the month"

I've put in more than 32 hours this week, time to go home. It's warming up here, but that's because a storm is coming through - I've heard 25-year flood predictions. Part of me wants to make use of the expensive flood insurance I am required to carry, to be honest.

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

TSA is concerned with keeping weapons off planes to avoid planes being hijacked. Guns in baggage claim is of no more concern to them than guns anywhere else in America, e.g., not at all.

I suppose so.

I must amend my "time to go home" statement. I mean, it is time to home but I need to wait for this dang macro to run. ETA and just like that it is finished!

I swam my first long swim in well over 6 weeks (2.25 miles vs 1&2/3 -I stuck to the shorter swims after the gallstone dx, and I'd been on vacation prior.) Slower than last night's shorter swim, but I did it without stopping. Woo!

Now let us crush something soft and watch it fountain blood. That is a girlish thing to want to do, yes?

She would be welcome to the army of HamF's. (but what will we ever do if she finds a fandom that doesn't start with "H"?)

Anyone else watching Emerald City?

I can't say I enjoyed Emerald City, but I am fascinated by it. If there are Munchkins here, they don't have a Lollipop Guild. The Scarecrow carries a sword, I think I feel sorry for the Witch of the West, and nobody's calling Glinda Good.

I meant to, but I had a visitation to go to tonight.
