Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.

Always Anti-fascist!
Lisah, that is *totally* breaking the Sunday truce. "Shit ain't seemly, man."

Why did Darth Vader cross the road? To get to the Dark Side!
How horrible and scary, lisah. Who brings a gun into a hospital? Oh yeah, wait...

"Look, son, if it's good enough for Shirley Bassey, it's good enough for you."
msbelle's missed anxiety meds reminds me of the question I was going to put to Natter. This occurred to me when I was driving across the bridge yesterday; our car needs a transmission fix. We're planning ahead to pay for it but don't have the money now and the car is mostly fine, but it will get progressively worse.
And I remembered all the other times we tried to squeeze by and avoid maintenance until it was more convenient.
So my question is: How are you currently pushing your luck?
Could be anything, big or small. Are you trying to taper off your ADs without medical guidance? Has that favorite shirt gotten a little too worn to wear? Can you really squeek through the rest of the season without cleaning those gutters? Is that manicure really good enough for the big meeting, or does it need touchup? Is that edit really final or could it use another go over?

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
Ugh. I just told my boss I didn't want to come in Saturday. I did not like the look on his face. He was not happy.
Ugh ugh ugh. I am going to do the work! I just don't have the spoons to do it from here, and it's 45 mins of work, tops, that he wants me to spend from 10-6 at the office for.
Team solidarity sucks. I get it, but it sucks.

And then Ortus came and said "It's Ortin' time" and they all Orted off into the sunset
How are you currently pushing your luck?
Living w/o a budget. I should get on that.

"Faded like the lilac, he thought."
Ack, Lisa! That`s terrible.
And thanks, everyone, for the condolences. I had a good cry on the SO`s shoulder this morning (and Seabiscuit came fluttering around, wondering what was wrong) and feel at least functional about it. Part of the problem is that we didn`t know when it was happening, so we have no funeral to go to or search to participate in, you know? Not that it would have solved anything. The SO thinks I should just go to Wichita and spend some time with Mary, but I feel dubious about that. But we have begun to think about what we can do in Moses` memory with our org. So I`ll be grieving for a while, but it no longer feels like the blank sheer wall of terror that it was last night.

We won’t stop until everyone is gay.
How are you currently pushing your luck?
Let me count the ways... how about posting here and elsewhere instead of prepping for a meeting with my boss that takes place in 2 hrs?

How are you currently pushing your luck?
Regularly scheduling days that keep me AND the kids busy from 7 am to 7 pm.
Not scheduling the kids for full time aftercare? (Although the full time aftercare has its headaches too.)
Speaking of being overbooked, I yelled at my daughter this morning. Such a parental fail. Terrible way to start the school day. I am still feeling raw, and I'm sure she's having a rough day too.
