Our wings are not tired.

I hope the burrito exceeds expectations. Sounds tasty to me.

The local annual Library Bash was Sunday. I did not win any of the raffle items. We had dinner with family last night. My very tasty cornbread was a hit. Today I am scanning and filing documents. My days are ordinary, which is fine. No drama, just a calm day-to-day.

"Somewhere in this building is our talent." Toby Ziegler, my spirit animal

Wow, hope it's really great. We bought $11 cheesesteaks recently--fine sandwich, but not a great value and kind of embarrassing cause it was Jack In The Box. Not sure anyone will believe me when I say "That sounds fun and different!" about food again, although it wasn't, you know, a complete disaster. Stupid meeting's over. I know y'all were holding your breath--please stop, oxygen loss is not worth the hype-- but I still remain among the impaired. I think the social worker...kind of forgot, or scheduled another SM on top of us or something because it was even more "Screech has two dates for homecoming," than they usually are. She can stand on her feet, but she can't think on them. Which is so encouraging with all the struggles coming at us in the fall.(And again, I must add, whether we #defund or not, I'm not sure the answer is there. Not with the ones I meet, anyway.)

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

Burrito was excellent and will be at least two meals. Well worth it.

And the people organizing our reunion just published that it'll be $200 for tailgating at the homecoming football game and then a gala on Saturday including a souvenir t-shirt and what looks like a coffee cup. Which seems pretty reasonable and might be fun except I would also have to get there and find a hotel and take time off from work and none of that sounds fun. Well, taking time off from work actually always sounds like a good idea and I'll have vacation time accrued by then (end of October ish). Hm.

Probably renting a car, too, I doubt getting around without one has gotten any better

That which does not kill you should RUN

It's shrimp and al pastor in a spinach tortilla.

That sounds super tasty!
