the hardest to learn / was the least complicated

ETA: I just fixed my comma splice with a semicolon in honor of Steph.

So THAT'S why the choir of angels started singing!

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

There should be a word in German for when the edge of your scab is healing and it's pleasurable to scratch the perimeter.

Schorfkante kratzen?

In other, sad news, Olivia Newton John has died. [link]

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

Schorfkante kratzen

But does that have the pleasurable connotation?

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

Aw, too bad about Pickles, but you gotta look out for Prubs first

Glad Scrappy Day was successful, Scrappy!

Yay dog sitting, boo injuries, yay healing

There's, like, an "every time a person uses a semicolon right, a grammar queen adds a diamond to her tiara" joke or something. Maybe too far from angels, bells, and wings?

Not too far

Eta there are enough existing variations of the “every time X happens, Y gets a Z” formula that you have a lot of latitude

OK, good. I'm going with the tiara thing.

I gotta get me one of those one day!

My project was delivered as of 4p, and then the meeting tomorrow that I had to do another thing for got canceled, so, woot! Done for the day.

Thrive to spite them

I'm sorry Pickles didn't work out but that happens sometimes. I know after Anna died the first cat I tried , Rose, never worked out. So it's sad but I'm sure Pickles will find a home where she will be happy and y'all will find the perfect guinea pig for the Zmayhem household.

I am really glad I hired lawyers. I got a call today from the case manager for the worker's comp, returning my voice mail from July 15th or maybe the 18th. She was kind of rambly but she informed me she'd been taken off my file. This is the first I had heard about it.

I haven't done much today at all. I have tried to do some art or something but I'm still in recovery mode I think. I'm hoping tomorrow I'll feel up to more than lying in bed and sleeping/dozing, and reading comfort fic.

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

Timelies all!

Happy Birthday Scrappy!

In other news, Mr. S didn't get his meds this morning, so he's a bit more disregulated than usual for this time of day. Sigh...
