Did you drink spa water? (aka, water with cucumbers in it)

Of course!

I thought spa water was like, the stuff you get in the baths!

Msbelle- Good Riddance! I am glad you are getting severance and possibly Cobra. I thought Jesse's song was going to be "Take This Job And Shove It", but I liked hers better.

I went to the Theatre/English Department Holiday Lunch at a fancy restaurant, and the food was great, but it took 4 hours from being seated to dessert, and we left after wolfing down coffee/dessert.

I learned the production manager is ALSO not going to be there in the Spring because he is getting a knee replacement! It is going to be a shitshow, since they are also hiring some random man Nigel met at a party who "likes costumes". Good luck sir! I hope you like shopping and returning Online orders, because that is what I have been doing for 3 years straight! I am so sorry for Katie, and the production assistant/props master (Mary) and technical director (Charlie). They all want to quit too because it is so terrible, but Katie is about 2 years from retirement and for Mary and Charlie, full time, with benefits, theatre jobs are few and far between in Rochester and they are settled for family reasons.

Also, the English department ladies are hilarious, because everyone hates out employer now, and we basically had steak and lobster and drinks and very expensive food at their expense, even though the administrator is supposed to cut 20% from the budget and has been made hourly. She is in "fuck it" mode.

You haven't lived until you've heard msbelle's new theme song on repeat for 3 hours. (Not her, marathon cheering station.)

Former employers are major dickhead for not waiting until after the holidays, but we knew that.

msbelle, the method does suck indeed, but...freedom! And Baltimore!

School of Arts~ma for Matilda (different state, but I heartily approve of Schools of Art).

Nice flashmob, Gud!

Congratulations on your escape, Sophia!

I know I've forgotten someones and somethings, but consider handcrafted ~ma and glitter waved in your directions.

packed 2 more boxes. almost have the china cabinet empty, so maybe I can get that sold or moved to the parent's this weekend.

Heart ~ma and surgery ~ma for Tim!

msbelle, your former employer sucks and you are better off without them, but it's good they gave you severance and Cobra. You will be fine and now you're free to do what you need and want to do for YOU.

Hec, I got my hair cut really short today. I like it.

I'm not turning my alarm on for the rest of the year!!!!!

Woo to the no alarm!

I am going to be annoyed if this scratchy throat turns out to be me getting sick just in time for the weekend. Irritating timing.

Stopping in to note that Woebot is pretty nice, easy to use, and very positive.

Had a nice dinner with an old friend, and now I'm waiting for my train.
