We killed a homeless man on this bench. Me and Dru. Those were good times. You know, he begged for mercy, and you know, that only made her bite harder.

I am a woman of various inclinations and only some of the time are they to burn everything down in frustration

Glad that's behind you, sarameg! And I hope it is really and truly behind you.

I have filed my taxes. Over 48 hours to spare! Ooh, better cross that off the To Do List.

I have also eaten more of one of those bacon-wrapped pizzas than is probably good for me. Yum. Should be excellent for breakfast tomorrow, too.

Our wings are not tired

Aurelia I feel your pain. I'm dealing with a cast and band where demanding and entitled doesn't even begin to cover it.

Not behind me. We're having hiccups. I'm now up to 11.5 hrs. But I can't do anymore.

this mess was yours / now your mess is mine

I have filed my taxes. Over 48 hours to spare! Ooh, better cross that off the To Do List.

I still have to file city taxes, which seem more gouge-y than federal and state taxes, in that there is no personal deduction/exemption, etc., and it's not based on your federal AGI. It's just a flat tax on your gross wages. (IOW, I owe more to the city than I did to the state because the state has deductions and exemptions. It just seems weird that the city taxes end up being higher.)

(And I value what my taxes pay for; I'm not bitching about having to pay taxes. I'm just surprised by the tax structure.)

Really stopping checking email now. Some mop up to do, some our fault, some stupid users.

I'm eating any and all leftover fruit tomorrow.

All sorrows can be borne if you put them into a story. Tell me a story.

Aurelia I feel your pain. I'm dealing with a cast and band where demanding and entitled doesn't even begin to cover it.

My current headache is a production manager who... Honestly, I don't know what he does. On our last show we had an LD who insisted that his tech table be covered with duvetyne. I kept slipping paper clips under the fabric to see if he'd notice, but I guess he's not a real princess.

Punishingly Intricate

Our accountant hasn't let us know that our taxes are done yet. Yikes!

not your mom's socks.

Yay new food allergy. By that I mean not yay. Not yay at all.

All my favorite ricotta cheese recipes can be yours. Wah.

I haven't trusted science since I saw the film "Flubber."

I am so over this 7AM conference call that lasts for 15 minutes. It makes me grumpy all day.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

I'm hoping it's at 7am for global reasons, not just local shittiness? Because that would also make me grumpy.
