Well, personally, I kind of want to slay the dragon.

Askye, it is good to hear that your manager had an appropriate response. Get that rest. Your noggin needs it!

Laura, I'm so sorry, that must be incredibly painful.

Thanks, guys. I am actually pretty worried about him, but in the category of out of my control.

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

My Zmayhem-gifted Buffy ornaments have primacy of placement! Buffy guards my tree, with the help of the Scoobies.

And we only have a Drusilla ornament to whisper evil whackadoodle from the tree.

I have made and consumed The Thanksgiving Sandwich, and verily it was good. Great in fact, because instead of gravy there was a layer of mushroom stew. [smek smek..]

And JZ continued Shrimpsgiving when I sauteed some mushrooms, and then reheated the Tacqueria shampies, and then had a side of heirloom tomato drizzled in balsamic, and fresh basil bits all over the plate.

This, after pie for breakfast.

hwæt

Back at work today after visiting my family yesterday.

I got to listen to story after story about dysfunctional members of my extended family, and the shitty people they associate with. It was like the face-to-face version of doomscrolling; it was all very fascinating to hear, but ultimately left me feeling depressed.

I'm sorry, Tom. That sounds just miserable.

I haven't trusted science since I saw the film "Flubber."

Oh damn, Sondheim died.

Now tagless for your comfort.

Oh, Tom. That sucks.

Laura, as my kids are on the cusp of leaving, I have such anxiety. But you are right. It is beyond our control. Sad. And beyond our control.

askye, yay for appropriate reaction from boss!

Sad to hear about Sondheim. I haven't watched any news so hadn't seen it.

Laura, as my kids are on the cusp of leaving, I have such anxiety.

It seriously sucks. The psychobabble claims it is some normal part of establishing independence, but that doesn't make being cut out any easier.
