That sounds amazing, Scrappy!
Xander: I still don't get why we came here to get info about a killer snot monster. Giles: Because it's a killer snot monster from outer space. I did not say that.

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

Life moves pretty fast. You don't stop and look around once in a while, you could miss it.
It really was. It was a great bunch of kids and the whole day was a treat.

Because books.
That's awesome, Scrappy! Fourth graders are also -- usually -- a lot less belligerent than middle-schoolers.
-t, I also love that idea! The tie-in was really emphasized, too.

Herding cats for fun
Well all righty then. Four mice down so far. Who knows how many more I will end? Those snap traps really do the trick. I did feel a little sad when I saw the soft fur and teeny toes, but I am determined to win back the premises for my own use.
All schools in the Bay Area will be closed Friday due to Very Unhealthy Air. From San Francisco to Fremont, Berkeley to Pleasanton, they will be closed. San Francisco State is taking a day. Interesting times. I personally feel like I am dying with gritty eyes, sore throat and mental haze, so I am moving very slowly. I promise to be thrilled next time I get to breathe good air.

Go go Katerina Bee!
The news from Paradise is just so fucking heartbreaking. Over 600 people are missing.

Aww, scrappy that sounds adorable!!
I used my ATV scooter and went to a happy hour thing at the gay bar! But it was super crowded and hard to navigate or hear people talk, so my friend and I didn't stay long. But the ATV scooter is definitely better on sidewalks than the other one. That said, I've got annoying super painful spots where my scar is (and maybe some hardware?) and so far nothing is fixing it—ice, painkiller, different positions...grr
Oh: peppermint merengues at Trader Joe's. Highly recommend, but do not recommend eating 3/4 of the box at once. My tummy is in sugar shock.

Our wings are not tired.
The news from Paradise is just so forking heartbreaking. Over 600 people are missing.
They kept warning it was going to rise. Terribly heartbreaking. It isn't like they can devote resources to going in and looking for the dead. The families must be in a terrible state.
In lovely CA news, Orange County looks quite nice in Blue.
Yay playing in snow! I keep looking at the pictures in Otter Lake and want to buzz up there, but not happening with my current todo list. It is so good to hear you have a nice bunch of kids, Scrappy.
Oh: peppermint merengues at Trader Joe's.
For the next few weeks I may have to go there with a strict list and blinders. Or order for pickup!

And then Ortus came and said "It's Ortin' time" and they all Orted off into the sunset
We went from a 2-hour delay at 5am to full-on snow day at 7. Since I took my birthday as PTO on Monday, I've been to the office exactly once this week. Woo hoo!

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
I just got to walk through rain and slush, and per usual, had the wrong boots on. I just need to suck it up and get duck boots.

Friends don't let friends read "Atlas Shrugged"
It seems that kids of all kinds enjoy playing in snow.
