Also am tired, due to some weird gas/indigestion situation last night I had forgotten about until right now.
Gas-X is your friend.
So there is something I can do, besides scream like a woman?

I am happy I can tell mac that Jesse is farty mcfart fart for the day, such a weight off my shoulders. YOU'RE WELCOME!
ION, my office smells like Woah. Bosses have Miso soup every morning and today brought in a whole pot of it.
IOON, the area is officially on rolling blackouts now. Dallas had some last night and with another 110 degree day, they expect more need for them today.joy.

Trust my rage
I need to drive up to Denver today (85 miles). While I do it all the time, I usually try to get several things done at once so it doesn't feel like such a heavy travel investment. Today I just have one thing that I said I would do but don't really want to do.
ION, do we have any buffistas sort of near the Oraange COunty airport? I'm going to be there next Thursday for work but I don't have a sense of the area or if I'll have enough time to have lunch or something.

not your mom's socks.
re: Google+, I wonder if this is a clash of cultures.
le Nubian, I think you've hit a good point. A friend who teaches undergrads says it feels like the sixties again with regards to online identity: "don't trust anyone with an alt."

Stephanie, I was thinking about you this morning because they were reporting on a woman who went into labor during the bar exam (and finished, to be clear). (The exam, not the labor.)

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

NO SIR! It was the other kind of gas. Mostly.

Friends don't let friends read "Atlas Shrugged"
brenda, I heard that; she finished the exam, then a proctor walked her to a nearby hospital (boggle).

Trust my rage
I heard about that! I actually made a comment somewhere else that what she did is really impressive, period. But I also think it was a sort of easy decision. You spend 6 weeks studying 8 hours a day for the bar and it is never more in your head that right after graduation. So to walk away and leave all that knowing that you would have to come back in Feb and do it all again (probably $800 for the test plus a review class) with a very young infant would be even harder.
(Not that I ever want to take the bar exam while in labor.)

I suspect her opponents in court aren't going to be successful at distracting her with theatrics.

Read that story, and one of the comments or lines was something like "...try to tell HER that motherhood makes women conflicted politicians" or something like.
I snerked pretty hard.
