I just went to the benefits fair, where I got some free Pinkberry, a free toothbrush, AND learned that I can join the Harvard employees credit union! Who knew? (Not me.) So maybe I will do that. Changing banks seems like such a hassle, but I can't believe I've been with Citibank this long, when I hate them.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

Mmmm, Abby Wambach. I mean, Hope Solo is really pretty, but Abby's more my type. :)

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

It worked! Thank you so much! We really luv you!!!!

Scola Road Trip! Woot!
You should visit that crazy hotel, the Madonna Inn--megan walker has been there, and it looks awesome.

I remember the crazy days. 500 posts an hour. Nubmer! Natgbsb
I do not see DFW on that itinerary.
My new bosses just complemented my work. And today when something on the computer was not working right, no one blamed me. Sadly that is enough to make me teary.

See? I gave everybody here an opportunity to tell me what a bad person I am and nobody did, because I fuckin' rule.
Oh, YES the Madonna Inn. An improv friend and I stopped there on a road trip down to the southern CA RenFaire (sadly, we didn't stay overnight, just wandered around the lobby and grounds goggling at everything), and it was gloriously insane. Not to be missed, in the most deliciously whackdoodle way.

Life moves pretty fast. You don't stop and look around once in a while, you could miss it.
The Madonna Inn makes the best banana cream pie in the world.
