Sometimes I miss having powers... Oh. Oh! I know what this is! This is peer pressure! Any second now you're gonna make me smoke tobacco and--and have drugs!

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

Shir, that whole thing looks like a mess! Sorry.

I'm terrifically busy with my ennui.

My concern with Pittsburgh is only the weather, and the thought of moving yet again. But actual health benefits and husband's state of mind are way more important.

RIP Grandpa Mason.

I hope you feel better soon, sj.

Job~ma to your DH, Dana!

I have a massage tonight, a possible car purchase tomorrow, and a phone interview for a job in upstate NY next Wednesday. And the f-ing heat has gone away for a while here, so I'm feeling all kindsa perky.

I look more rad than Lutheranism

Our 6-year wedding anniversary is tomorrow (how has it been 6 years already?!?), and because I'm trying to score maximum Wife Points, we're camping this weekend with Tim's family. For 2 nights. (We've camped with them before, but it's always been 1 night. I genuinely can't remember the last time I camped for more than 1 night. It was probably when I was a Girl Scout.)

Lord help me.

Apparently everyone else is taking our office manager's vacation as a chance to be tardy/play hooky. I'm normally the fourth person to the office in the morning, but today I was the first, and at least two co-workers will be bugging out at lunchtime.

You want me to open, you gots to pay the price! cranks thermostat down until people in pictures on the walls start huddling together for warmth

Our wings are not tired.

My concern with Pittsburgh is only the weather, and the thought of moving yet again.

When I lived in Pgh the freezing rain was an issue on the super steep hilly roads. That said, it was one of the best experiences I ever had as far as wonderful neighbors and things to do. Incredible pride in their city and mass participation and support of the arts, and sports of course. Every single time I said I was new to the city, which was often as I got lost all the time, the person would exclaim how much I was going to love Pittsburgh. I had to hear it hundreds of times, and that positive attitude kinda wears off on a person.

Full list there, Calli! Job~ma. Where upstate?

Shir, it really does look very messy. I hope some reasonable coalition comes together.

Teppy, think smores!

Ugh, Pittsburgh has hills? Boo.

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

Good luck, Dana!

Hills are great! They make for variety in scenery.

That's the pain / That cuts a straight line down through the heart / We call it love

I would be fucking ecstatic if we could move to Pittsburgh.
