Our wings are not tired.

I have some very specific experience that probably isn't easy to find.

This is a very good position to be in.

Heated steering wheels and seats are truly magical. Not that I need it here, but you know, in theory. I have used the heated seats. Nice on a sore back.

Sounds like the kind of feature that seems like something you totally don't need until you have it.

Now that my car has 250,000 miles it not only has more miles that any car I've ever had before (by a good margin), but I've now put more miles on that car than any other car I've owned, used or new.

Got an interview on the 30th. Wish they would schedule it sooner, but big companies move slow. The Fed moved faster though.

Hope that works out okay for everyone involved, Laura. Hugs.

This must be an odd time to be interviewing for a government job. Good luck, Gud.

I had intentions of getting to the gym before work today. That didn't happen. But I'm at work on time and fully dressed, so that's something.

That's all the way to the Moon, Gud!

Huh, I can apparently print attachments from my work email on my work printer from my phone. I know this because I did that accidentally on Sunday. Oops.

It's really hard to achieve escape velocity in a Ford Focus.

Yeah it is. I guess if any part of the government can stay funded though, it's the Fed.

It's the actual Fed! Cool, Gud! Good luck!

So, taking a leap in the crazy old cat lady direction! I'm actually becoming a two kitty household. SIL's friend has 3 kittens, and 6 cats and her husband wants no kitties. I am taking 2 and she is keeping one. The reason I am taking 2 is because that way they will play with each other and not bug Zoe as much. Particularly since they are really used to company. She already did the spaying and chipping as they are 8 months old. I figure to put the food in the utility room because Zoe won't go in there.

Also, in keeping with the theme Zoe's new companions are brother and sister so I'm going to name them River and Simon. Let the shenanigans begin!
