'Why We Fight'
Off-topic discussion. Wanna talk about corsets, duct tape, butt kicking, or physics? This is the place. Detailed discussion of any current-season TV must be whitefonted.

My poor pup! She has seasonal allergies, and they have been really bad lately... I thought she had gotten her allergy shot two weeks ago when she was in for a med dose titration test, but I misread the line item. She hasn't gotten it since 7/31! Poor noodle. Two extra weeks of unnecessary itching. Bad dog person, I am. Also got her distemper vax while I was there, in keeping with our general vax theme here.

All the vaxes. Skinner got his Lyme and kennel cough a couple days ago. The vet tech told me the best way to keep the dog's nails trimmed. He takes his to the tennis court and tosses balls frequently and running on the hard surface keeps the nails trimmed.
Honestly? When I was young and kind of outside, imagining the Working World and all? I never thought it would be so much like a feuding family trying to paper over its flaws for the public.
We're safely tucked into our hotel in Pasadena.
The lobby has a Foosball table! Woot!
Matilda and I are about to go out to dinner.
College tours tomorrow.
I am so sick. I really think I’ll need to see the doctor tomorrow. For now I’m hoping 12 hours of sleep in my own bed will help somewhat.
Feel better, Steph!
Several of my students were clearly sick in class today, and one of my colleagues was out for the past week with Covid.
Health~ma, Steph (and Hil). Safe travels Hec. Arm~ma to just about everyone else, looks like. I’m glad we’re all getting vaxxed. Glad your Tuesday was better, msbelle—mine was, too.
My employer has been pretty good about remote work. I think it’s because physical office space is at a premium there. They have more people working for them than they can seat. And while they’ve bought up a lot of property in town to try and alleviate that, it’s still a very hot market here, so they can make more money renting it out rather than have us working in it. All of which leads to me working barefoot, with a cat on my lap, 95% of the time.
It's erikaj's birthday today!! Happiest of happy days, Erika. May the world treat you well today and may this year be filled with delightful surprises.
Happy Birthday, erikaj!
