Hil - you absolutely can leave your house messy. It is ok to do that. Get yourself together, get what you need, take a break.
Zoe: Is there any way I'm gonna get out of this with honor and dignity? Wash: You're pretty much down to ritual suicide, lambie-toes.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
I get a daily newsletter from WBEZ and it often includes some lighter fare. Friday's had a question about Halloween costumes and one response was, "Our 3-year-old announced he wanted to be tomato paste for Halloween."
I love little kids. There's a funny picture around the internet of a kid about that age who insisted on going as pants for Halloween. (You know, you can criticize google for a lot of things, but it took me one second to find this! [link] )
I'm very glad my circus horse will get the chance to make someone happy again.
That is very cool.

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
Agreed. Dishes and taking out the kitchen trash are all that matters.

Waiting for the director of the school to call me back to discuss the horrible thing a boy said to ltc yesterday.

Concur. Or I'd never go anywhere.

Ugh. Not fun, and good luck with getting it sorted out.

At least she was suitable horrified when I told her about it at drop off.

I'm so far behind in this thread, but I'm here because today this has always been a place of refuge and safety, and I'm feeling so raw and angry about RBG being replaced by someone who will do her best to undo everything she fought for in her life.

Our wings are not tired.
Oh dear, sj. I hated that part of parenting. Kids can be so rotten.
"Our 3-year-old announced he wanted to be tomato paste for Halloween."
When DH was coaching little kid t-ball one of the kids asked his dad if he could be Big Owl for Halloween. (That was what the kids called him since he was Coach Al and for some reason Al is hard for kids to say and comes out owl)

Love it! I am going to miss Halloween. I know our downtown shops will have treats. I haven't seen whether our neighborhood association is doing anything.

Right with you, Pix. My anger level last night was horrible. I didn't think I would be able to sleep. They need to expand the courts. Period.

Oh good. I hope the conversation goes/went well.
