And none of us deserving the cruelty or the grace -- Leonard Cohen

That's bullshit, meara.

Luckily, next week is short again.

This is true, but sadly for me anyway, it's the last short week until April. ::cries::

Along with the shitty new health insurance, they also took away our MLK day. And President's Day. This is ...another week just like the rest, until MAY.

Well, my worksite is closed. But I have to take a vacation day because my employer (I'm on a subcontract) doesn't observe it (I get to float the holiday, but not until april. Bullshit beancounter crap.) Oh wait, excuse me, they observe it as a "day of service to honor MLK's legacy." By which they mean, service to them. It's so tin-eared I began ranting loudly when I saw the email.

And then Ortus came and said "It's Ortin' time" and they all Orted off into the sunset

Oh, modern life.

I just emailed my sister asking for a recipe for a kale salad she made for me once. She sent me a link to a blog, which had sourced the recipe from another blog, which had sourced the recipe from a cookbook which I own. So that was a pointful wander through the internet.

meara, I can't imagine getting through the winter without those two long weekends! That's so evil!

Every now and then, I think I might actually be a little odd.

msbelle, there was no injera link? I don't think we have an Ethiopian place here, and even if we do, I know I'd be too shy to ask them about it!

Scrappy, motorcycle trip through the desert, woo! You've passed some sort of coolness rite of passage now, I'm sure.

Thank you, msbelle! I'll check them out.

hip deep in pie

meara, that sucks. I complain mightily about Canada's lack of long weekends between Xmas and Easter, but MAY? Ridiculous.

We were out of Feliway (the cat pheromone) for about a week. Any doubts about it having an effect are gone because Oz was a massive asshole without it, and is much better only 3 days into having it again. However, it does not stop the cats from waking me up early.
