Giles, if you would like to get by in American society, then you are going to have to follow our traditions. You're the patriarch. You have to host the festivities, or it's all meaningless.

I must obey the inscrutable exhortations of my soul—Calvin and Hobbs

I like my pixie, but I've been thinking of moving back to a short bob. The transition's annoying, though.

Back tattoos of the mother is that you are absolutely right - Ame

I'm pretty happy with my hair these days. I had it super short for a few years, post divorce. Now it ranges between chin length and shoulder length, slight reverse A-line. My most recent color took it a lot darker than I was expecting, but I really like it. It isn't black, just dark, dark brown. With purple highlights. Kept those.

I like my hair but not enough to share it twice.

So, ummmm, I'm home alone, bored on a Friday night.

I am recovering in the hotel room after a long day of shopping, before we probably go out some more tonight!

I have to work my first Saturday tomorrow. I have to be there by 6. Of course I had already scheduled a sleepover with one of mac's friends and of course it is the weekend before school starts. Granddad, the trooper, is coming over at 5:30 to be here with the boys.

overtime, overtime, overtime

Ugghh, overtime. Over the last three weeks (since vacation), I have had 8, 14, and 12 hours of OT each week respectively. Thankfully I'm salried non-exempt and get paid for it, but still. I've even given away a few of my projects and my workload is still nuts. I know I'll be putting in hours over the weekend too.

I'm thinking of buying this necklace with some of my OT pay.

I am the fly who dreams of the spider

The finance administrator forgot the agreement for my temp pay raise. Gave me partial petty cash as a salve. If she forgets again next week I'm gonna be pissed.

They will not let me have that much overtime unless we were way way busier.
