This is so nice. Having everyone together for my birthday. Of course, you could smash in all my toes with a hammer and it will still be the bestest Buffy Birthday Bash in a big long while.

Hey. New board.

That's it Jesse. It's pretty fun, though the premise is better than the show sometimes.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

Jesse just think of it as hot yoga?

You make a point, but that is why I would never do hot yoga!

And also why I'm mad at Parade magazine for saying tracking "steps" isn't enough because movement isn't necessarily exercise, and then saying you should "sweat" for X amount of time a week. Dude, it's July! I was sweating just reading that "article."

Our wings are not tired.

I am excite. My sister and I looked up to see what was playing tomorrow night at the drive in movie theater. Princess Bride! I almost never go to the movies when I am in Florida. Don't know why, just a habit I suppose, but all summer my sister and I will go to all the movies at the local awesome theater. Alas, it is still closed. So we thought we would see what was playing at the drive-in. Woo!

That's excellent, Laura!

Bleargh, 11-hour workday today and every minute of it was rushing! But now I am full of fish tacos and feel considerably more chill about the whole thing.

Greece's financial crisis threatens to take down all of Western civilization - a civilization they themselves founded. A rather tragic irony - which is something they also invented. - Jon Stewart

Hm, "price point" has a fairly precise meaning in my workplace, but I imagine it has drifted out beyond the word of marketing to be used in a more nebulous fashion elsewhere.

It is real estate shows where I see abused - house hunters mostly.

I didn't love The Mandalorian, but I kind of got into the world-building and also I love love love Gina Carano, so when she showed up, that was fun. Also Ming Na Wen was in one episode! But really, I've enjoyed the SW animated stuff more than the movies recently: the last six episodes of Clone Wars season 7 was excellent. (I have no interest in watching Anakin Skywalker be a whiny jerk so I basically only watched the Ahsoka eps in the final season, and those were great.)

ION, I am in Colorado! Spent two days driving across Nevada and Utah, during which I only saw three Trump signs. The dog didn't love being in the car for that long, but holy cow, southern Utah is STUNNING. And now I'm in a cozy room with a belly full of tacos and ice cream. Tomorrow I have to work, but it's lovely to be here and get to hug my nephews and if only my dog would get along with my brother's dogs everything would be great.

'we all walk this earth feeling we are frauds. The trick is to be grateful and hope the caper doesn't end any time soon"

Yay for good trips and stuff!

I had such a lousy night's sleep the previous night that I called in sick, and seriously napped for much of the day. My sleep this past night was broken, but not nearly as bad.

Also I think nearby construction must have hit sulfur water -- that rotten egg smell. I doubt that's what's waking me up, but it's not nice, for sure.
