Mm, pie.
See how I'm not punching him? I think I've grown.

Homemade key lime, may I add.

Nice! I'm having a granola bar. Not quite as nice.

So sorry for your loss, Windsparrow.

Yum! The baker that Marti the Medical student introduced me to (Tart to Tart) just closed last month after being in business for forty years, and they had the best key lime tart. I'm still in mourning.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
I had breakfast too early, so I'm already hungry for lunch, and this is not helping.
Windsparrow, I'm so sorry for your loss. I went to a wake and a funeral this weekend for different people, and that was a lot.

Emmett and I are going to a memorial for his little league teammate who died in a ski accident at 25. It'll be a sad reunion with all his old state champ teammates.

Apparently if you're enough of a power nerd, there is nothing that cannot be flowcharted.
I am not at the beach, which is deeply wrong. However, what is deeply right is that this morning I was listening to the Ologies podcast about fandom — specifically, part 2 of a 2-part podcast about fandom — and Will the Vampire People Please Leave the Lobby is mentioned in a discussion about fans banding together to do good stuff (specifically, buying plane tickets, which I assume was for Nilly, although the podcast didn't mention specifics).
Also, the Ologies podcast is just really fucking good in general. (A 10-hour drive to vacation meant that Tim could make me listen to all his favorite podcasts.)

I got here January 24 and in May the Head of Circulation retired, and the new Head of Children’s left during her probationary period which was described as a bad fit. Then three weeks ago the director told me (confidentiality) she was retiring in the fall and the board has some interest in me as her replacement. This morning my boss, the assistant director, told me she is resigning as of June 10.
This is all very flattering and while I might be interested in being the director in a few years, I am not really game for what is to be apparently running the whole damn library by myself. They can’t make me, right? But it’s very hard to hire people here since the cost of living is so high.
