I just called a sub. I find when I'm there, Nilly, I'm usually sick at 10:00 until the end of the school day. It makes for a long day for me and some days I can handle it and some days it kills me. So today, it would be bad. I'm forgiving myself.
I swear, one of these times, you're gonna wake up in a coma.

Very good.
It's one thing to try hard and make your best effort. It's another, to know yourself enough to realize that despite all that, some things simply couldn't work. Good for you for knowing yourself well enough.

Sometimes I think I might just move up to Vermont, open a bookstore or a vegan restaurant. Adam Schlesinger, z''l

Woke up with with the back of my right shoulder, the right side of my neck, and part of that side of my upper back an enormous knot of super tight muscles. Don't know why. I've been trying to slowly stretch out, but ow, it hurts.

Hil, I hope you feel better soon.
So, a few posts ago I whine about how I can't concentrate because my friend is giving birth, right?
What happens a couple of minutes after I hit "Post"? Yup. She calls, and it's all behind her.
I should have whined so much sooner! I should have used my powers for doing good.
Now I'm too euphoric and happy to concentrate. Even to whine. I can't whine with such a huge smile on my face! If I babble about not being able to whine, is that whining?
The funny thing is, the Hebrew date today is the exact same date as the new baby's older brother (two years old).

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
Yay for your friend, Nilly!!

Yeah, that's no good. Forgive yourself is a good call.

Oh, I didn't write that, did I? Silly me. She had a boy.
She said he looks like OlderBrotherName #2. Only despite the resemblance they can't call him by OBN's name because, well, it's already occupied, so they're going to try to think of a new name.

I wanted to stay in bed. But that's because I'm lazy. But noooo...I had to get up early so I'd have a chance at a parking space and not have to get lost in the far reaches of Kamchatka trying to find the alternate garage.
I should have used my powers for doing good.
I rather think you do, all the time!
Now maybe could I beg of youto do something about the fact that Devi decided I was prey TWICE last night. I think I need to unearth more of her fake mice.
