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

I don't even know where a theater with swanky recliners etc. might be found around here! That sounds nice.

The feeling you get when your brain finally lets your heart get in its pants.

I bet we could find one in SF though, -t. You want I investigate?

I went in to work to do precisely 2 things, did 3, had an off the record convo with retiring in spring quasi supervisor, took new coworker up on offer of his mama's tamales, and then promptly left and went shopping.

I am not the only one embracing my inner asshole.

Tamales were AWESOME. Laundering, nap, cleaning, packing.

Glad you have the right man, Burrell! :) now get your celebrating on! Is Franny old enough to babysit? Plan a nice dinner tomorrow or a movie! Or both!

Sophia, poor kiddo. It can be hard! I know I was not always the best employee in college. So hard to juggle the things.

Gotta get some work done. Don't wanna. But if I buckled down it would probably take like, 90 minutes.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

Brilliant -- just made plans to go to my local swanky recliner theater on Sunday! The only thing I don't like about it is I feel like you're too far away from your friend! It's hard to make a little aside.

I am bailing on Sunday dinner with my mother, but I'm spending plenty of time with her. And I'm going with a friend whose father just died, so it's actually a good deed to let her pick the time.

I remember the crazy days. 500 posts an hour. Nubmer! Natgbsb

We have reserved seats with electronic recliner, or we have non-reserved not as recliney or electric seats BUT a full menu and chair service. I went for food.

So, I'm super tired today, but this was posted:

He was, briefly. I'm not sure Vacation is worth seeing just for him, although I thought the reboot was crass and disgusting, so YMMV.

And I was like, wait? The Vatican is totally worth seeing! The reboot with Pope Francis? NOT crass or disgusting.

Need to read more closely.

Ugh, nothing is tackier than the Vatican! At least this new version is slightly less pompous.

I think I've heard of swanky movie theaters in SF, Lee, but that would pretty much have to be an all day excursion for me. I don't know if I can pull that off anytime soon. If there was one in, like, Vacaville I could justify going there, maybe.

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

Slow work day the day before two weeks vacation is just asking for me to cut today short. For once I'm not waiting on information from anyone. We are kinda as up to date as possible. Sure, there are things I can do, but nothing in any way, shape, or form NEEDED to be done now.

I think K-Bug got us tickets to see Star Wars on Christmas or the day after. I will have to double check with her. We too go back and forth between luxury recliners and the place with food and alcohol service to our seats.
