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.

Remember that the frontier of the Rebellion is everywhere. And even the smallest act of insurrection pushes our lines forward.

My parents got me the wifi crockpot for my birthday.

Can it gather all the ingredients by itself from the refrigerator, and then prep and mix them?

I don't know, I haven't read the owners manual yet. One of many projects for today. I will report back if it can!

Every now and then, I think I might actually be a little odd.

It's 23 here and my planned trip to Target is looking unlikely. Below 30 I don't want to leave the house.

Several days off ADs. So far so good.

And the utter crap in the air has granted me a cold. I'm going to think of it as a bad allergy attack. Vegas will cure me.

Glad to hear it, Zen!

I hope it is just irritation and getting away will take care of it, Connie.

"There are few hours in life more agreeable than the hour dedicated to the ceremony known as afternoon tea."

Will the wifi alert you if the electricity blinks out? My electricity went out the other day and the food I thought was cooking wasn't because the crock pot didn't go back on when the electricity did.

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

On a team conference call- when I feel like things have been going fine and the boss sounds like he is beyond exasperated with things and lists a whole bunch of changes. Cognitive dissonance.

Basically none of it is on me, I will need to find some places for new meetings and help find some materials they want, but that's it. Still weird to be in such a different headspace than where he sounds.

Our wings are not tired

Saw mom last night. She's reacted a bit when she heard my voice, but didn't open her eyes or wake up. She hasn't eaten anything in a few days now, so she should go anytime. In a very selfish way I just hope it isn't today since this is Pix's birthday.

Drove back up to Irvine last night and grabbed a hotel room so that I could teach this morning, class is in 35 minutes and I just want to shake off at least a little bit of my deep sadness so that I can have it together for the few hours it will take to teach.

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

I'm so sorry Drew. Glad you got to see your mother again. If you are sad, your students will be understanding. I've been there before.

In a very selfish way I just hope it isn't today since this is Pix's birthday.

I get this. When my sister was dying, the whole family was hoping quietly that she'd hold on until all the October birthdays passed.
