It's less aggravation for me to have her sick on vacation week because she's not crying to go to school, but it's sucks that she is going to miss going out with her grandparents and having her cousins over. I was planning on trying to see Birds of a pretty while she was with her grandparents. I'm hiding in my room right now while she drinks all the juice she wants and watches all the TV she wants because I have a migraine.

Oh man, one of my coworkers just said on a conference call that something was a "mute" point. I am only so descriptivist and that is not it.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
When I was little and home sick, in addition to watching tv all day, sometimes my grandmother would make a Queen of Hearts sandwich for lunch, which was (I swear to god) raspberry or strawberry jam on white bread, in a bowl with milk poured over it.

And then Ortus came and said "It's Ortin' time" and they all Orted off into the sunset

"Mute point" kind of makes sense on a conference call? Not for how they used it, probably.
Does she know the acronym?
I am afraid to ask. That just seems like a whole can of worms I don't want anything to do with.

I think "no problem" is a perfectly cromulent response to many many situations and people who want to make it a problem earn my scorn

Our wings are not tired.
I will say no problem, you're welcome, or my pleasure. It depends on who I am speaking with for the most part.

I'm with -t and Steph on the "no problem" non-problem.

Same, obviously.
And none of us are millennials!! Amazing.
