Definitely hear you on people getting it wrong. Will have plenty of time to ponder that while doing invite calls to Southern AZ today.(Arizona being my absolute least-favorite place to call, ever, even if, in theory, I'm on friendly turf.) Karl, try to stop me. Literally, I have shared that everywhere that I have opportunity, except the work blog because maybe "Hosebeast" is...a bit casual(But in case I was going to ask for access there, I did stop myself from implying that she is a worse person than her father, because probably he *liked paying for stuff.. (For the dozens, that *is* elegant. And genderbending! For real life? Not so much. Made me smile to think about adding it, though.)
Do you see any goats around? No, because I sacrificed them.

cereal: The reason why I don't hate calling Texas or Florida(say) nearly as much as the hometown crowd? If I catch them, and they are on our list? They're lonely and really want to talk. (Which is the opposite problem as with the Arizonans, which can be a pain when in a hurry, but a mitzvah feels a lot better than a "shameful waste of time instituted because my boss has swapped the Personal Touch in place of a long-ago other addiction")

Our wings are not tired.
It's Dana's birthday! I hope you have a delightful day. May the year be filled with relaxation and calm after the tumultuous first half! Speaking of which, are you all settled into your new home? Meet any neighbors?

Happy birthday Dana!
Woohoo I got a promotion!! It’s just a title change, my job doesn’t actually change, but it was overdue and I was getting salty about it, but I’d heard that due to the economy they might not be doing promotions this year. So I applied for a few jobs earlier this week…and lo and behold suddenly my boss tells me! Yay. It’s a 4% raise but mostly I was mad about the title rather than the $$ (though more $$ is never bad!)
