You know what, I just might sign up to be my neighbor's ' school transport a couple days a week. Not just emergency. Because clearly, they've got an unreliable transporter for these days, I could just incorporate it into my schedule. Gotta think on it.For now I've been about exchanging kids helping with leaves and cats, but if it were regular, might have a more concrete exchange. Money or services.
Giles, if you would like to get by in American society, then you are going to have to follow our traditions. You're the patriarch. You have to host the festivities, or it's all meaningless.

At least I know which is the indulgent drop off lane and which is the express unemotional one.

Not so nice is that I'm about to ruin a Friday morning for a bunch of people because of a series of unfortunate events and an upset foreign government. - shrift
You're the best kind of neighbor, sarameg.

Y'all, I can't make my annual joke about not having won a Macarthur fellowship this year because someone I knew in grad school - someone who sort of viewed me as a mentor at the time - won one today. And I know these are as much about lobbying and networking as genius, but I just can't even.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
That's awesome, flea. I hope you take full credit.

I am a woman of various inclinations and only some of the time are they to burn everything down in frustration
That's wild, flea.

I'm terrifically busy with my ennui.
It's now late enough in the year that when I get up for my 7AM meeting, it's dark. Boooooo.

I'm not really loving it myself.
Walked outside this morning and my hair just gave up. I didn't think it was that humid. I mean, yesterday there was actual fog! At least the kids told me it looked nice....

Every now and then, I think I might actually be a little odd.
At conference. Speaker's mic keeps cutting out. Soon we have to break up into groups and do ... something. Fun and educational I'm sure. Ugh.
