Ann, that's a ferret.

Gud, what everyone else said. Your wife was perfectly capable of suggesting ahead of time that you have lunch together. Disappointment that you couldn't spend time together is okay. Treating you like you're some kind of idiot for not reading her mind is not okay.

And if you have time, treat yourself to something. Even if it's just sitting outside in the sun for a few minutes (weather permitting).

Re-read what you did over the weekend and bask in your resourcefulness and drive, and in our awe and respect in the face of same.

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

Timelies all!

Took the day off. Mr. S had a doctor's appointment this morning(weight check only, so I dropped him off at daycare afterwards) and we're supposed to be at my MIL's at 5:30, so I decided to stay home.

Our wings are not tired.

Random dream report: So I had a most vivid dream that starred a SO of an inactive Buffista, who I see all the time on FB. Anyway, it was like family tech support hell, except I am pretty darn sure these are technically proficient people. Characters are SO and IB. SO is extremely frustrated because she keeps going on her social media websites and finds that they aren't where she left off. After some discussion I determine that she shares a user name with IB. Commence countless circular conversations on why this won't work. Try and bring IB into the conversation, but he isn't concerned. I woke up so annoyed because I was trying so hard to be polite but she just wasn't getting why she had to have her own user name. It wasn't like a usual stupid user where I could just say 'do it this way' and not get any argument. She was stuck in wanting it to be her way no matter how illogical.

Seriously, this dream was several days ago and it still bugs me.

Sheryl, I hope you're enjoying some quiet time to yourself.

I had a particularly violent and disturbing dream. I blame my D&D game last night, which involved zombies and a DM and party members who were going for gore points.

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

I had to look up United. WTF?

Hope you are enjoying some rest and relaxation, Sheryl!

Days shrink and grow cold, sunlight through leaves is my song. Winter is long.

-t, I'm so sorry for the sick, but I marvel at your timing.

Liese, wishing you, Dave, and the Biscuit all good things going forward.

msbelle, I hope you're feeling better, and I'm sorry your relaxing day turned out so badly.

Gud, I also marvel at your industry over the weekend, and share the Buffista view that it's not your fault that you didn't (don't) read your wife's mind. Communication goes both ways, and she's obligated to do her part.

Sends good-dreams vibes to all Buffistas, along with bad dreams begone vibes.

I'm glad you get some relaxing time, Sheryl.
