meara, at least it's a weekend you will all remember, so there's that.
Angel: Yeah, I never told anyone about this, but I-I liked your poems. Spike: You like Barry Manilow.

Oh, it was still a fun weekend, and at least the cheesecake I made came out good! (I'd not made one in years, and was using a random recipe that called for a water bath with a springform pan, and I wasn't sure on the timing of taking it out, and I was worried I'd messed it up--but it looked good released from the pan and tasted great!).
Crossing my fingers that next weekend is not rainy like the one weather forecaster is saying, though--my rescheduled backpacking trip is then!

I'm terrifically busy with my ennui.
Holy shit, AO3 won the Hugo.

You always do this. We get tipsy, and you take advantage of my love of the scientific method.
I first read that as AOC and was very confused.
In other news one of the potential mass murderers mentioned in this news story [link] is a student at a school I teach at (although currently under indefinite suspension).

Remember that the frontier of the Rebellion is everywhere. And even the smallest act of insurrection pushes our lines forward.
Oh, jeez, DX.
currently under indefinite suspension
Before or after he got busted, may I ask?

After. Banned from campus, too. (Not that the last is really a deterent, since the campus is wide open.)

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
Oh yikes.

I remember the crazy days. 500 posts an hour. Nubmer! Natgbsb
today I picked up the dogs from sitters and then had a pretty lazy day. I got my new printer/scanner set up and then I tried to do one or two bits of straightening or putting things away each time I got up. I have a half filled box of things to get rid of from my kitchen and I got a pile of clothes put away into storage bags. Not bad.
I think I am going to take a book and go to bed early. Back to work tomorrow seems like a cruel joke.

Woo, AO3!
Yikes, DXM
