Same. I think I'm going to straighten up, go back and see what my to-do list is for next week, and call it a day.
Sometimes when I'm sitting in class... You know, I'm not thinking about class, 'cause that would never happen. I think about kissing you. And it's like everything stops. It's like, it's like freeze frame. Willow kissage.

I remember the crazy days. 500 posts an hour. Nubmer! Natgbsb
I've done some easy reconciling work that needed to be done. About to start entering some stuff that needs in and then I have a Chiro appt and massage at 4:30, so all good.
Mac has finished his first week as an employee at Whataburger. He was working 5pm to 10pm until yesterday. Last night and tonight he has 10pm -4am shift. Ugh. Last night was so dead they sent him home at 1:30.

Yay for him working, though!
My boss has on her calendar that she's leaving at 3:30, but I can hear she is still here, so I feel like I should wait! I have out at 4 on my calendar...

Ugh on the hours, but it's good to hear he is employed.
This was my first full month at work! I'm getting the hang of it, and the bus driving is less stressful all the time, so long as I can preplan the routes, since Boston is full of low highway overpasses that a 10'2" bus does not fit under. (One of the ones close by to work is 9'!).
Today I bought 3 cases of white wine, did some other shopping, took several trips, including one to a boxing lesson taught to Parkinson's patients! I didn't know that that was a thing, but evidently there are boxing clubs all over the place that are teaching them. One of the program managers who went is considering having a class taught on-site.

I love that! My yoga teacher teaches at a bunch of assisted living places.

Remember that the frontier of the Rebellion is everywhere. And even the smallest act of insurrection pushes our lines forward.

His "Wisdom" page has many more paragraph breaks and only slightly less absurdity, for that that's worth.

Title: "Not Even Close: The State of Computer Security"
Venue: NDC Oslo 2015
Abstract: In this bleak, relentlessly morbid talk, James Mickens will describe why making computers secure is an intrinsically impossible task. He will explain why no programming language makes it easy to write secure code. He will then discuss why cloud computing is a black hole for privacy, and only useful for people who want to fill your machine with ads, viruses, or viruses that masquerade as ads. At this point in the talk, an audience member may suggest that Bitcoins can make things better. Mickens will laugh at this audience member and then explain why trusting the Bitcoin infrastructure is like asking Dracula to become a vegan. Mickens will conclude by describing why true love is a joke and why we are all destined to die alone and tormented. The first ten attendees will get balloon animals, and/or an unconvincing explanation about why Mickens intended to (but did not) bring balloon animals. Mickens will then flee on horseback while shouting "The Prince of Lies escapes again!"
