Right, there comes a point where you have to either move on, or just buy yourself a Klingon costume and go with it.

Y'all, my youngest child is EIGHT. That's like, officially Not A Little Kid Anymore age.

My youngest is 16 and working as a software developer downtown. He's practically not a kid at all.

Yikes, Billytea, get well soon! Infections are scary.

Congratulations meara on weight-bearing!

I'm still furloughed, still sick, still have no voice. I suppose I should get dressed and do laundry and walk the dog at least. And really I need to do my holiday cards, I'm running out of excuses.

I am being driven mad by excel. I have two sheets in a spreadsheet that say they are they same font and size, but they look different and I cannot figure out what setting is off to cause it. DRIVING ME MAD!

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

I wish I could reach through the screen and fiddle with it for you, msbelle!

It is clearly something in the view or page settings, but I cannot figure it out.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

I just sent myself a test email because it has been so long since I got one! This week is crazy. On the one hand, so little has been going on, I could have taken the three days and gotten two full weeks off. On the other hand, you know something would have blown up if I wasn't here.

I wonder how early I can leave.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

Also my computer is all jacked up and I should really re-start, but that also barely seems worth it when I'm going to shut down for the weekend in a few hours!

Why do we have to work again? I feel like I know the answer, but it isn't coming to me.

"Look, son, if it's good enough for Shirley Bassey, it's good enough for you."

Our day is centered around getting small plastic cards.

Matilda has lost her student Clipper card for getting around on Muni for free so I'm hauling her downtown with her birth cert and school ID to get her a new one.

Then I'm leaving her with JZ as I scamper to the bank and try to replace my compromised debit card.

Little plastic rectangles rule my life.

Also, the contractors are working on the back porch (just outside my nerdhole) with power tools. So....I want to get away from that.

Why do we have to work again? I feel like I know the answer, but it isn't coming to me.

Because we weren't hatched from eggs wrapped in hundred-dollar bills.
