It sounds like Matilda is having a most excellent school year!
I think ita would approve of her skirt-wearing mandate.
Excuse me? Who gave you permission to exist?

The more I learn, the more I realize how little I know.

All sorrows can be borne if you put them into a story. Tell me a story.
Thanks for the b'day happies!
But probably an ADHD evaluation should happen first.
That's fair.
Btw, JZ is just finishing Mexican Gothic.
I stayed up way too late to finish it because I wouldn't have been able to sleep if I didn't finish it.

"There are few hours in life more agreeable than the hour dedicated to the ceremony known as afternoon tea."
I didn’t sleep much when I was reading Mexican Gothic either. It is so hard to put down!

I am a woman of various inclinations and only some of the time are they to burn everything down in frustration
Whew!
I really needed to come tell y'all that I have made the executive decision to bcc most of my accounts with today's update on our complete stoppage and the board wasn't here! This place is way more important to my peace of mind than work. So glad it was a quick fix

Also, Mexican Gothic was super compelling and also made it hard to sleep because creepy and disturbing

And then Ortus came and said "It's Ortin' time" and they all Orted off into the sunset
We're back! Thank goodness, I was worried I might have to do some actual work.

Oh no were we down? Glad I missed it.
I super do not want to work today—I drove down to Portland to visit/support a friend and didn’t get here until after 11pm and didn’t get to sleep until after midnight. And then my 8am meeting that I was counting on to put a fire under my butt ended up canceled!! But maybe I can nap later…

It is windy and blustery today, and the street of half flooded, so I think the beach is trying to make me less sad about leaving. (I'm not really that sad; had a great time.)
I'm also learning how to use Instagram today, so, apologies in advance if you follow me.
