I'm OK with pink highlighting.

Our wings are not tired.

Baltimore peeps, what is up with your mayor? I haven't really seen much about her having issues until this morning.

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

I used to be good with pink highlighting but it's too dark for me these days. Don't know if the pens changed or my eyes.

I'm having a fancy passover lunch - matzoh with havarti, artichoke hearts, sun-dried tomatoes, and roasted red pepper. Not structurally sound, but tasty.

Matt, that sounds like an awful day. I'm sorry.

Thanks folks. The storms have held off so far, the funeral service was beautiful, and I'm telling myself that the therapist switch may end up being a plus in the long run. Likely to result in fewer last minute cancellations or reschedulings at any rate.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

Jesse, now I'm wondering if you are wearing a yellow and orange paisley top with brown check pants. I apologize bor being the opposite of helpful and encouraging.

I wish! No, I'm just wearing a sweater that doesn't fit that well over skirt for a different season and then tights that tend to bag around the ankle. I mean, it could definitely be worse, I'm just dissatisfied.

Fandom means never having to say "But where would I wear that?"

Timelies all!

I'm sorry for the awful day, Matt.

I'm terrifically busy with my ennui.

I hope your day is going better, Sheryl.

All sorrows can be borne if you put them into a story. Tell me a story.

Oof. Heading home after a long day on my feet, ankle throbbing, and I get a text from my landlord that the boiler malfunctioned causing all the radiators to overflow. I may have floors in four rooms to clean up when I get home.

this mess was yours / now your mess is mine

I have to actually call the dang IRS tomorrow. The check I wrote for my quarterly estimated taxes hasn't cleared, and I sent it 3 weeks ago. Now, the IRS might be swamped, but my estimated payments have always cleared pretty quickly. I googled for what to do, and it said if it's been 2 weeks or longer, call the IRS to see if it's cleared. I might have to stop payment on the check and re-send the payment, dang it.
