"I keep to a strict diet of ill-advised enthusiasm and heartfelt regret." Leigh Bardugo

msbelle, oh I'm so sorry. What a bad stressy day.

We went to Huntington Gardens to see Santa. That was absurd. I was shocked at how much damage there was. One of the statues (an Urn that must be 4 feet in diameter) had been flipped upside down. yikes.

Okay, I have graded all of the online things, now I have one last paper set. This is possible right?

"I love you, but I'm not your emergency tech ER."

OMG, will someone get Pumpkin's digestive tract to be less noxious? Cat can clear a house. And we're on the good food.

Oh, how sad! I loved that month I spent working there.

Why did Darth Vader cross the road? To get to the Dark Side!

Yipes, Kat! Those winds must have been terrifying.

Okay, I have graded all of the online things, now I have one last paper set. This is possible right?

You've put me to shame anyway. And yes, totally possible!

What is with Kahn Academy? Why is this on the NYT's front page? I say it's all a big collective fantasy that the answer to low test scores is a simple as sending all the school kids to check out Kahn Academy over the weekend.

Wait, is this real-world child support, where the money goes to buy food for the kids, or MRA fantasyland child support where the women just buy Ferraris and cocaine? -Jessica

My Chuck D draft is complete, and I'm sending it out to some black male beta readers to let me know if I sound like Sandra Bullock in the Blind Side or something. This is my fear.

Thrive to spite them

sarameg - have you tried grain free food and/or chicken free?

Sometimes grainfree will work but Dean has to have both grain free and poultry free. And a co worker has a cat who is allergic to poultry -his cat had the digestive tract issues with noxious gas that cleared up when they went poultry free.

I've only had her a month or so. So much improved from when she got here. I think part of it is just kitten gut.

Waking up before the alarm, without kitty rumpus? Unnecessary. But up I am.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

I just had a horrible horrible depressing dream featuring someone/something that is no longer an issue but was a huge emotional mess at the time.

Night before's slightly stressful dream featuring acting by Donald Glover was a much better substitute. I'm distracted and sad, and now I need to work through a set of exercises to get this feeling gone so I can sleep again.

Jeez, it's wrong for me to be up and about to leave for work before sunrise, but even wronger for you.

My new tights smell like balloons. I fear this will be distracting. But not enough to go upstairs and rummage through the sock drawer. Onward!

If you're going through hell/keep on going/don't slow down/keep your fear from showing/you might be gone/'fore the devil even knows you're there

The news is reporting a multi-car pile up (no major injuries) in Japan that involved eight Ferraris, two Lambourghinis, a Rolls, and a smattering of Mercedes(es?). That would be something to see.
