My work's illegal, but at least it's honest.

I'm terrifically busy with my ennui.

Uhm, how big a tip should I leave in my hotel room for the cleaning lady?

What I've heard is $2 per day, more if you've been especially messy.

Yeah, I do anywhere from $2-5, really just depending on what cash I have on me at the time. (if I tip $5, it's because I didn't have cash to tip the day before.)

Coding and Sleeping

I usually do $5.

I usually leave $5 per day, Tom.

Happy belated birthday, msbelle! Sorry I was too occupied with napping yesterday to catch up with you on the actual day.

Love is stronger than death and harder than sorrow. Those who practice it are fierce like the light of stars traveling eons to pierce the night.

I have composed the body of my Letter of Professional Commitment for the purpose of applying for the credentialing program of the National Alliance of Direct Support Professionals. Is anyone available to give it a read-through? Please and thank you.

This is one of those meetings that was supposed to last 15 minutes and has lasted far longer.

Dana, I wish there was someone whose arm I could rip off and shove through the interwebs for you to beat people with.

Punishingly Intricate

I've been leaving more of a tip at hotels (like $10/night) after listening to a Judge John Hodgman about it: [link]

I sympathize with his general air of "No, this is fine, everything's fine, clearly I am succeeding and doing exactly what I meant to do."

"There are few hours in life more agreeable than the hour dedicated to the ceremony known as afternoon tea."

ltc keeps somehow undoing her diapers with her clothes on. Including while wearing pajamas and a sleep sack. No idea what to do about this. It's been a messy day.
