I'm supposed to deliver you to the Master now. There's this whole deal where I get to be immortal. Are you cool with that?

I must obey the inscrutable exhortations of my soul—Calvin and Hobbs

It's been in the mid- to upper-90sF for the past week and likely to remain the same for much of the week to come. I tend to wilt in anything over 80.

"And that's why God Almighty gave us fire insurance and the public defender".

That is indeed difficult. We're doing the "from one A/C to another" here and waiting until the great orb in the sky will go and bother other countries. Also, ice-everything (in drinks).

Our wings are not tired.

Yes, also melting here. I just got back from a quick trip to the grocery store. No shady places available in the parking lot. This may have influenced my decision to buy watermelon.

"There are few hours in life more agreeable than the hour dedicated to the ceremony known as afternoon tea."

My cousin had the cutest little baby girl today! Unfortunately they're all the way in SF. So, I won't get to meet the baby until September. ltc stares at the babies pictures for an hour this morning, and declared that she is her baby. She also asked where the baby's mother was, and when I told her that the baby has two daddies she cheerfully replied, "Oh!" and that was the end of that conversation.

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

Who has two thumbs and got accepted into the grad school of her choice and got good news about her mother's health condition (AKA, Not Cancer)? This MPA honors-program girl with a healthy-to-her-age-with-existing-conditions mom!

Congratulations, Shir! That's well more than doubly wonderful!

What is even happening?

Shir it's so nice to read your good news. Congrats on grad school and YAY to having a healthy mom!

Sj, that's such a cute conversation with ltc.

msbelle, if you happen by, I'm wondering -- do you know what funding threshold Hegar has to meet?

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

Timelies all!

Busy day for Mr. S. He had a playdate this morning with one of his former classmates, went to my MIL's house for lunch and a playdate, and has a birthday party to go to in a few minutes.

As for me, I went and got blue streaks put in my hair.

That's how the boys were because their parents always treated it as nothing unusual so they didn't think twice about it.

Busy days are a good thing for 4 years olds for sure! Yay for blue streaks. I haven't done any fun color in my hair forever.

I remember the crazy days. 500 posts an hour. Nubmer! Natgbsb

Cindy, I do not know, sorry.

I'm terrifically busy with my ennui.

Who just managed to scratch their own face? Right in time for a visit with the in-laws?

(It's me.)
