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

askye, I think your nephew has a great thing going for him, having you in his corner with some idea of what things are like for him. There's certainly some sadness that you didn't find your place at his age, and I don't want to sound like I'm discounting that, but your self-knowledge and experience can be a huge guidepost for him.

The artist formerly associated with cupcakes.

Does that mean the Evil Bunny will be getting one too?

Oh yes. Yes it does.

I'm working for Axon. The lobby doors are replicas of the doors from The Nostromo, because the company is run by giant nerds. The lobby entrance at the parent office in AZ is a replica of the HQ doors from the original MiB movie. Did I mention nerds?

BZZT! BZZT!

Our wings are not tired.

Bzzt!

It gets light outside and I wake up. This would be a much better deal if I didn't get sleepy when the sun goes down. Still, I like my quiet mornings. When I get up the dog has decided this means he gets to take over my side of the bed with DH.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

I'm so tired! I got in late Sunday night and have been out until nine the last two nights. All good things, but I feel like I'm just crawling toward next weekend.

They went on a hike and then played in a creek for the last half hour or so. I asked what they did and he said "all the other kids went up stream to have a water fight and I stayed and tried to catch fish and then skipped rocks".

When I was on this band retreat the other weekend, they were super explicit at all times that no one had to participate in anything, which was great. So at any given time, even if we were "all" doing an activity, there were always one or two people off being alone. Obviously it helps that we are grownups, but I think that was really valuable and I wish that kind of attitude existed everywhere!

I'm terrifically busy with my ennui.

Ack, now in the situation where the one place has sent a contract for me to sign for hourly work, which likely would eventually become full-time but no commitment, and the second place is full-time, sounds interesting, and would pay well, but isn't as far along in the hiring process.

Oh yikes, Dana! That's a tricky position to be in. How interested are you in each place?

It's our big office cleaning day today, and I think I'm done? I've even tossed a ton of stuff out of a common cabinet.
