Thrive to spite them

I would think making sure the gates are secured is the school's job. Also do they know he's been without his medication? Hopefully they will be understanding about that.

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

Meep, Sheryl. Good luck.

My attendance is no longer required for jury duty. I always have such mixed feelings about that.

Fingers crossed, Sheryl.

I have driven all day today, am getting dinner, and then driving about 30 min to my Airbnb. Whew! Pretty stuff though.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

Where are you, meara? You're having so many adventures!!

I must obey the inscrutable exhortations of my soul—Calvin and Hobbs

Not to brag, but I'm pretty sure I just ran into a wood elf. My department shares the third floor of a building with another team, and that team has pretty high turnover, so I'm used to seeing new people wandering about. Today's new person was an utterly beautiful man, about 6'6", with high cheekbones, long brown hair (obscuring his doubtless pointy ears, alas), and a haughty expression. Unlike everyone else in this southern area, he did not respond to a friendly, "Hiya." Thranduil, come get your boy!

Our wings are not tired.

Excellent, Calli. Let us know about future sightings.

Yes, where are you adventuring now, meara?

Back to work today. Some of my offices stayed closed today but most people are back to work breathing a sigh of relief that we didn't get slammed by Dorian. Continued distress over our Bahamian friends.

Coding and Sleeping

My daughter dresses up as an elf for going to RenFaire (with pointy ears). She pulls it off really well.

I'm so sad for the Bahamas.

Ooh, Calli!
