Yikes! And good luck.
Oh, at first it was confusing. Just the idea of computers was like — whoa! I'm eleven hundred years old! I had trouble adjusting to the idea of Lutherans.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

Anyone want to be my productivity buddy for the next couple of hours on Messenger or text?

I'm terrifically busy with my ennui.
Ugh, sorry, -t.

Our wings are not tired.
I'm sorry, -t. Very upsetting stuff.
BIL's Bahamian family is safe, although significant damages to property. They don't even know the full extent yet. They've been communicating via WhatsApp throughout the whole storm and now. Sending horrific pictures. Part of the issue is going to be the airports being trashed, and roads of course. Even getting help to people will be very difficult for some time.

I must obey the inscrutable exhortations of my soul—Calvin and Hobbs
I'm sorry, -t. Even if you don't get reduced, that's a rough situation to be in.
I'm glad your Bahamian relatives are ok, Laura.

Ok, this is ridiculous. I didn't have any phone service near the lake or at the visitors center but I do at my campsite? Minimal. But still! I feel less camp-y.

Fandom means never having to say "But where would I wear that?"
Timelies all!
Got a call from the school at 10:30 that Mr. S was hitting, spitting and throwing things, and that I should come get him. Later, the principal called to say he was suspended. I'm trying to arrange a meeting with Gary and myself to discuss strategy, We also hoping to bring the teacher from Mr. S's PEP program in on it.
Today has not been good.

'we all walk this earth feeling we are frauds. The trick is to be grateful and hope the caper doesn't end any time soon"
No, it hasn't.
Looks like I'm to come in for orientation on Monday, though, since I passed my background check, so there's that!

I am a woman of various inclinations and only some of the time are they to burn everything down in frustration
Oh, Sheryl. I'm sorry.
Yay, Theo!
You could put your phone in airplane mode and pretend, meara? That's pretty funny. Reminds me of walking around Yosemite with DH and seeing a sign for the amphitheater and him checking for wifi...
