I second all the prizes to all hard working 'istas.
I've been out of the abbey two days, I've beaten a lawman senseless, I've fallen in with criminals. I watched the captain shoot the man I swore to protect. And I'm not even sure if I think he was wrong.

I'm terrifically busy with my ennui.
Airline sent us an email this morning asking for our banking information before they rule on our baggage claim. I replied that I wasn't comfortable sending that to them at this point. (Since they'd probably fucking lose it, get it?)
I'm not crazy, right? It's weird for them to ask for that information before they've even decided if they're reimbursing us for anything.

"There are few hours in life more agreeable than the hour dedicated to the ceremony known as afternoon tea."
Yeah, I wouldn't give them that either, Dana.
ltc had rough night's sleep. I'm exhausted. I finally made my shopping list for brunch, but I don't have the energy or the time to go shopping before I pick up ltc from camp. TCG has after work meetings tonight and tomorrow night. An energy~ma lying around?

Because books.
And why couldn't they just send you a check anyway? That seems sketchy to me.

Can you get it delivered?

Groceries? Normally, yes but not for the specialty items I need. Plus I need alcohol. I'll probably put off the shopping until Thursday when my inlaws are here or Friday when ltc is back at camp. At least I have a plan.

ltc was perfect at camp today. Apparently she always listens and gets changed for swim with no problems.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
That's what you want, right? I mean, assuming a child can't be perfect 100% of the time, better to have them behave for the people you're paying? t /not a parent

Yes. It's just funny. Who is this kid they're describing?

I do think this is a classic dynamic, for whatever reason.
