It's always 4am somewhere.
You know me! I'm like, "Go school! It's your birthday!" Or something to that effect.

The more I learn, the more I realize how little I know.

Fandom means never having to say "But where would I wear that?"
Timelies all!
Quiet (long) weekend coming up here.(Especially since Gary has another business trip.)

Every now and then, I think I might actually be a little odd.
Uh. Dan Haggerty (Grizzly Adams) died of cancer this morning at age 74. I don't like this fucking trend.

I am a woman of various inclinations and only some of the time are they to burn everything down in frustration
Aw, I used to love that show.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
I'm finally watching Blood Diamond, and this movie is rough! (Finally because I'm always talking to people in Sierra Leone and I'll never get to go there, so.)

Sigh. I think that mistake is going to take a good long while to recover from. I've got to stop making mistakes.

Good luck figuring out how to do that. Let us know when you've got it worked out.

This week alone, I've signed onto 3 major projects in which they'll be fucked if I leave, even at this stage. 2, I'm pretty much the only one with the know to get it moving within the month versus 6.. I still haven't really tackled my resume, beyond cursing it. I'm hedging my bets,clearly.
And Jesus, would Carl PLEASE be in his office soon?!!!

Days shrink and grow cold, sunlight through leaves is my song. Winter is long.
Is this a goal you want to establish for yourself, Gud? Or one that's being imposed on you? Either way, unless you figure out how to stop being human, it's an unrealistic goal.
What about your kids? Are they allowed to make mistakes? The other people in your family? Your coworkers? Are none of them allowed to make mistakes? How does anybody ever have the courage to try something new, to expand their reach and widen their goals without the freedom of learning from the mistakes they make?
I'm sorry. I really don't mean to lecture, but it makes me sad when someone as smart, industrious, and dedicated as you are says they're not allowed to make mistakes.

"I keep to a strict diet of ill-advised enthusiasm and heartfelt regret." Leigh Bardugo
Steph, I thought of you because I was extremely.....well, let me you what happened. I have a colleague who picks nits in the most intense ways. She has told her students that she doesn't want them to turn in papers with Times New Roman because it's boring and lazy. So one of my advisory kids was printing a paper for this teacher's class in my room. When I pulled it off the printer, I said, "What is up with this font?!" She explained. So then I told her use Comic Sans for the paper. Or Papyrus. She chose Comic Sans and I laughed.
