I just think it's rather odd that a nation that prides itself on its virility should feel compelled to strap on forty pounds of protective gear just in order to play rugby.

Thrive to spite them

Gud, it's good to see you around. I'm sorry you had such a tough time.

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

Timelies all!

Another bad night with Mr. S where Gary had to take him to the emergency room.(Different one from the other times) When he gets so agitated that he throws things at us, I don't know how to de-escalate things. I'm the only one who got a reasonable amount of sleep last night, so I'm the only one awake at the moment. (They had to sedate Mr. S because he was so agitated.)

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

That sounds really hard, Sheryl.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

Oof, Sheryl. That's hard.

Totally her love language.

I'm sorry to hear that, Sheryl. Hoping for much better days for him and your family.

Cats to become a rabbit should gather immediately now here

I love the memory of ita. I had how the iPad treats her name because it is a PITA to make sure I get it correct!

I am jumping in to say (if you are Facebook friends) I am super happy to get my award. I am so happy people like me and appreciate my work.

Perhaps scheduling the awards ceremony for two hours in the one week of the year with student orientation and graduation (both of which I am involved with) and grades due and courses opening (both of which I am involved with) was a bit much and thus I ended up at work until 7 pm. And I did, in fact, sort of say that out loud!

Our wings are not tired.

Happy Birthday to Toddson! I do hope that this year is a turnaround year leading to better conditions in home, office, and health! May the day and the year to follow be filled with all good things.
