Our wings are not tired.

Yeah surprise party or surprise bonus are okay, but surprise assignments suck.

Ysy for shots, boo for no warning responsibilities.

I forgot about Freecycle. I need to find that again, too. I will be having some useful items to give away soonish. Humidifiers and such. Amazing the difference a house makes vs. the apartment in humidity levels. Making arroz con pollo (con also some sausages) for dinner, and it smells sooooo goooood.

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

Arm ache is increasing and the base of my head is starting to hurt. DO NOT LIKE. I took Advil. I’ll save the Tylenol for if a fever develops.

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

Timelies all!

For some reason Mr. S woke up around 5(despite having gone to sleep after 9 the previous night) so little sleep was had after that. Just adding to the sleep deficit...

Oh, yeah, I forgot to report, second shot and lucky to not have any reactions so far. Arm was less sore this time. I took a two hour nap on Sunday, but Ikea will do that to a body, too. Much glad.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

Yay shots! Boo surprise assignments!

I've felt fine after my first shot, but I've slept late the last couple of days and I wonder if it's related.

You guys, TWOP was on Jeopardy tonight! They didn't get it.

Sometimes I think I might just move up to Vermont, open a bookstore or a vegan restaurant. Adam Schlesinger, z''l

My mom is out of the hospital now and back at home. She can walk a little now, but she's still getting dizzy. They're going to have a home health aide come for a few hours a day, and her physical therapist will visit the house to work with her.

I got my class schedule for fall. As of right now, I'll be teaching two classes online, and two on campus. I'd hoped to be able to stay fully remote for another semester, but the university is pushing for getting most classes on campus. I'd requested as many remote classes as possible, and this is what they were able to get me.

Jesse that’s awesome but sad nobody got TWOP!

My dog is tearing open my couch cushions. He’ll be fine, napping or looking out the window, and then I look open and he’s got a cushion on the floor in his mouth and he’s ripping it up. Ugh!! Granted it’s an old couch, but I don’t need it to look WORSE than it already does!
