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

Ugh meara, that really is a mess

My Tai Chi class didn't happen tonight. I don't know why - I got there a couple of minutes before it should have started (I thought) and no one was there, the office was dark and locked.

oh dear, that's not good. Tai Chi class should be rewarding, not disappointing.

meara, that absolutely sucks. I wish there were a buffista traveling companion that could go.

Kalshane, best wishes to you both!

My cold kicked in and we have parent-teacher conferences tonight. I am not pleased.

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

Hopefully I can ask someone on Saturday, Burrell. Probably I just misunderstood something about the scheduling.

Yeah, meara, figuring out how to pay for your hypothetical replacement Chile traveling companion was going to be the next step in my salvage "plan".

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

Ugh, meara, that totally sucks. I hope you can figure something out.

GS: If you had to choose between kicking evil in the head or the behind, which would you choose, and why? Minsc: I'm not sure I understand the question. I have two feet, do I not? You do not take a small plate when the feast of evil welcomes seconds.

"Frustrating" doesn't begin to cover that, meara. That sucks.

Congrats, Kalshane! We need more good news for 2016.

Thank you. I know this year has been a right bastard to a lot of people so far. Hopefully it's just getting everything out of the way early.

And thanks again for all the kind words, everyone.

I'm terrifically busy with my ennui.

Ugh, got to sleep late through no fault of my own (Yes, it was entirely my fault, I should know better than to start reading a 35k-word fic by an author I like at bedtime), and then traffic this morning was a hellacious hellbeast.

I feel like I've done my work for the day and should be allowed to go home.

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

I too would like to go home. I had been feeling like the anti anxiety meds were working a bit, but this week I do not want to leave bed and random urges to start crying. Do not like. Deep breathing and lots of breaks.

Compassionately intolerant

I get that it must have been aggravating, but isn't killing him in his sleep going overboard?

Matt, I chortled so loud and hard at this, I nearly choked.

No homicide, I swear!

Coding and Sleeping

I'm getting over being sick. Ugh. Meanwhile, way too much stuff to do for the time I have.
