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

It's a long time since I actually did any work on a car. I used to help my dad bleed brakes fairly often, or so it seemed at the time, and I've replaced hoses and whatnot and changed tires on occasion but none of that for ages. I don't even take my car in for someone else to change the oil as often as I probably should (I feel like the recommended time is too short because I don't put a lot of miles on it).

My work day is draaaaaaaggggggging. Both because I would rather be done with working and heading to SF and because the cloud-based software I am mostly using is taking forever to actually do anything.

Will there be a link to the livestream tomorrow? I decided to stop in.(the political work never really stops...moving it back is not such a crisis.)

Because books.

Sending tiny task~ma to David, and the same regrets that I can't be there this weekend. Sending all my love.

Happy birthday, Vortex!

And very, very belated thanks to Teppy on my DST mini-freakout.

Happy birthday, Vortex!

That's a bullshit timesuck, chair vendors!

There is a special hell for companies who don't make it easy for you to give them your money.

I think I've done everything that needs doing.

I'm tired and a little fried, but all that's left is some housecleaning.

Aw. I could never do that. (I'd get *most* of it, perhaps, but I'd forget forks and have fifty people eating with their hands.) We had Belated Mother's Day today cause last week Mom had to see the doctor.

Our wings are not tired.

You have done everything that needs doing!

Biggest planning fail was my wedding to Brendon. I was 45 minutes late to a wedding outdoors in Morikami Park because we were still finishing making my dress. On the way there I realized I forgot to wear earrings, so my mom took off hers and gave them to me. Then after the ceremony I realized I forgot to bring the music CDs I had put together. Sigh. Wedding and marriage still worked out.
