Well, you'd better not be thinking what I think you're thinking, because my answer is the same as always — no threesomes unless it's boy-boy-girl. Or Charlize Theron.

Our wings are not tired.

Susan, lovely to read all the good news this morning. May the good keep coming the rest of the year.

Well done, Long Island voters. Really wish you had paid attention before making us endure Santos. Now we need another dozen or so districts to wake up and get rid of the crazy.

Today may be Valentine's Day to most of the world, but it was my dad's birthday so it is always a special day in my family. DH made me breakfast, which was nice.

Trying to find a cruise to take with my sisters. Yikes, they got pricey!

Susan, Woo Hooters! (Love that.)

Wow, so cool to see so many peeps "posting-in" -- love that, too.

tl;dr--its been a fairly harrowing two weeks involving a friend just finally diagnosed with bipolar.

I am (and he's is) so grateful for an amazing group of friends and a son who are rallying in many ways for him (divorced and lives alone). Day 1 of a step-down partial hospitalizatin program today which looks really good, and he is doing a thousand times better than two weeks ago.

There is so much else, but I will process it with my therapist, who is awesome.

I am just hoping for a day where I can concentrate and be chill while I work today.

Starting with a delicious cup of my new chai tea, effing right.

I have finally woken up enough to realize there is a vase with three red roses on the kitchen table and called TCG to thank him. He must have hidden them in the basement yesterday. And I'm assembling his and ltc's Valentine's gifts while drinking a Amor latte from my local place. I have no memory of what I actually bought either of them but I'm hoping I have enough that I don't have to run out and get anything else.

Jen, the full name is Amor De Mis Amores and it is Brownie Truffle flavored.

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

Ugh trying to write up a counseling for an employee that has made other employees uncomfortable by asking personal questions, spending too much time chatting with them, looking at them as they walk in the halls, and then recently partially blocked an exit so an employee would have to pass closely to them. It’s so clearly edging to harassment but then is also not overt enough to check any clear boxes. Never asked them out, never used innuendo.

Ugh, indeed. People suck.

sj, that sounds fabulously delicious.

At the vet with the cats. It was so easy to get them into their carrying cases. TOO easy. They're planning something...

Bob's learned to live with tragedy, but he knows that this tragedy is one that won't ever leave him or get better.

It's not currently sexual harassment (from what you said) but it is definitely harassment when blocking to cause others to pass closely.

People do suck.

Glad to hear the good news, Susan!

I hope your dad recovers quickly, shrift.
