Dawn: I think a date should be in a real fancy restaurant, then champagne at a night club with a floor show, then ballroom dancing. Joyce: Unfortunately, we're not dating in a movie from the thirties.

Always Anti-fascist!

But I guess I'll go to the one my boss asked me to.

I remember the crazy days. 500 posts an hour. Nubmer! Natgbsb

3 days since my boss told someone that she needed to meet with me regarding my application for another job in our department and 0 emails or phone calls to me regarding such a meeting.

Our wings are not tired.

Ugh. Can you follow up since it is end of day Friday?

Theoretically I do not know she said this.

Punishingly Intricate

Eh maybe she thought better of it?

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

Arcadia is one of my (and my mother's) favourite plays; I have wonderful memories of reading it out loud with her -- good homemade fun.

I've read it, and it looked like it would be amazing to see live.

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

Timelies all!

I can hear thunder rumbling outside. I hope it doesn’t knock out the Wi-Fi like it did last night.

It is my favorite play as well. I saw it performed in probably 1998 and it stuck It is really beautiful and what plays are meant to be.

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

Travel today was relatively straightforward. My phone lead the way, and while I did have to white knuckle it a bit in rush hour traffic in a new-to-me SUV I managed to arrive exactly at my sister's cabin at this retreat even though the last two roads were gravel.

She was very happy to see me and rallied to talk and cuddle with me and when she got tired just listen to me. And my niece was also very happy to have me there. Plus surprise nephew who I had not seen since he was a little poot running around our wedding with Emmett.

It was arduous but really the right choice, as I think they all needed to see me, and I needed to see her. So I've got all day tomorrow and then I drive back to Atlanta on Sunday and catch my flight home.
