Have I mentioned that ltc wants to make her own Gashlycrumb Tinies books?
Eeeeeeeee! Please tell her I would like an autographed copy.
That's beautiful. Or taken literally, incredibly gross.

"There are few hours in life more agreeable than the hour dedicated to the ceremony known as afternoon tea."
She wants to plan the death of all her dolls. She also wants to be an author and illustrator, so she wants to put them in a book probably, but the book will all be scribbles without actual words because she doesn't read yet. The scavenger hunt for the Gashlycrumb Tinies at Edward Gorey house made a big impression on her because she's still talking about it 4 months later. And her daddy reads her the book sometimes. She also wants to be a baby doctor.

Tea: ltc's fever is still spiking at noon on the spot, but her appetite isn't affected. She just ate a huge lunch.

Every now and then, I think I might actually be a little odd.
msbelle, holy crap, what a total waste of time. I would've been livid.
I am so burned out and over corporate bullshirt. I'm not sure I even want another corporate job. My ability to deal with stressful stupid crap is almost at zero. If I can make a living at freelance editing, I'm about ready to just do that. The company I'm going to be doing freelance editing for doesn't pay much, unfortunately, but it's a start. The downside is having to buy my own shitty health insurance. Countdown: Nine years to full retirement age.

Not so nice is that I'm about to ruin a Friday morning for a bunch of people because of a series of unfortunate events and an upset foreign government. - shrift
Stupid frustrated today. My SS card still has not shown up, the second request I made has not been acknowledged as processed after 2 days, payday is next Friday and I won't be getting paid, I placed an online order that was supposed to have been delivered yesterday, and is still listed as processing so I have no damned clue where it's at, and the burger I had for lunch didn't have bacon even though it was ordered and paid for. I just told MedicGuy to find someone else to go to the hockey game tonight. I'm not going to be good company. I'm going to lay on the couch and pull the blanket over my head and ignore everything.

My own fault for not calling during the week: mystery hold on driver license renewal remaining mysterious. Call on Monday...

Fandom means never having to say "But where would I wear that?"
Timelies all!
Got up early(for a Saturday) to go to an open house at another school we're looking at for Mr. S for next year. Promising, but as with the other school I visited, I worry that his ODD would be considered too much for them to handle. I guess all we can do is apply and see what happens.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
I decided it's time for me to start making layer cakes, so I bought cake pans and made a trial cake, and it's a good thing I did, because I couldn't get one layer out! Next time I'll put parchment on the bottom.

Cats to become a rabbit should gather immediately now here
Msbelle, that sounds like a clusterfuck.
Askye, I think home is where you can melt down with no repercussions. That living situation seems hard.
ltc is adorable
Maria, you are inspiring me to get my Ss card Now!

Jesse, parchment is awesome. Makes everything so much easier.
My one big problem with layer cakes is the way each cake domes in the middle, and then I have to carve the top off. I haven't figured out how to get them to bake flat on the top.
I'm trying to get enough energy to go around the corner to pick up dinner. But it's wet out...
