You know what the chain of command is? It's the chain I go get and beat you with until you understand who's in ruttin' command here.

Friends don't let friends read "Atlas Shrugged"

Maybe they should have tested his brain (for worms)

Our wings are not tired.

That is nice, Todd. Bringing a positive out of a bad situation.

I’d be lying if I didn’t say that I miss them all tonight…

Happy birthday, Debet!

RIP Greg Kihn - a friend of mine who is a sound engineer worked with him a few times & said we was great to work with.

this mess was yours / now your mess is mine

Happy Birthday, Debet!

I think I'm having a migraine aura for the first time. Everything is sparkling. This is trippy and weird.

Woe to the fucking wicked.

Thanks, everyone. DH got me an embroidered towel, as it's my 42nd. Ive been basically solo parenting since Sunday as he has COVID (still testing positive this morning). And Gumball started Kindergarten this week, so he's more than a bit of a mess. And I think the baby is teething again.

I continue to test negative, and, as I told DH, as long as we don't end up in the ER, it's unlikely to be my worst birthday.

Way too much adulting for a birthday! Awesome present though!

Oh, ocular migraines! I used to get those when I was on the computer too much. Eye doctor said it was my body's way of telling me I needed a break.

Yikes Debet, that sounds hectic! I hope you get a bit of belated birthday soon!
