And then Ortus came and said "It's Ortin' time" and they all Orted off into the sunset

One of my favorite parts of the haggadah I edited is the seasonal songs (about spring, not about Passover). It was originally intended for young kids, but it's still fun to sing them as an adult.

Is it really even Passover if I don't get to sing the Frogs song? The parts for kids are the best parts!

Dylan (who is almost 19) attended a Seder in Boston with my brother's family, and since my nieces are 4 and 2 he wound up reading the 4 questions as the youngest literate person at the table.

Thrive to spite them

I worked Easter but Matthew cooked her ham earlier in the week so we had our Easter style dinner early.

I missed seeing the newest baby because I was working. I want to see the babies

Inventory is coming up next Wed and somehow almost everyone on my team will be off on Saturday so that will be interesting. We all asked for time off before inventory was scheduled.

Saturday we are going to the comiccon. I keep reminding Matthew that he should look on the website at what artists will be there and pull out comic books he may want signed.

There is a panel I think he will want to go to first thing so that means getting there early and waiting in line which isn't great for his back but at least he will be able sit

I adore all you motherfuckers so much -- PMM.

David, I hope you got out into the lovely weather. I took some photos of flowers in the neighbourhood, and my roomie and I are headed to the farmers' market later.

As the Beatles sang, "it's been a long cold lonely winter," and I'm starting to feel marginally more alive now that Spring is going sproing.

But by Great Chthulu's Tentacles I need these assholes in power to cut it the fuck out, already.

"Somewhere in this building is our talent." Toby Ziegler, my spirit animal

I usually don't look forward to spring(No, not because of the timeshare in Munchkinland, but, like, good guess.) No, it's nice, but we get about two weeks of it before everything pivots to Hot as Balls till it's fall again. I hate the desert.

I must obey the inscrutable exhortations of my soul—Calvin and Hobbs

Welp, I didn’t get the job I interviewed for two weeks ago. Which is a bit of a bummer. I know there are plenty of people having a worse Wednesday, but I’m still a tad down about it.

that sucks, calli. well, maybe the next one. I went to a disability webinar looking for a speaker for PDA, but I don't think she's quite it. Maybe if we get really stuck sometime.

Sometimes I think I might just move up to Vermont, open a bookstore or a vegan restaurant. Adam Schlesinger, z''l

Dylan (who is almost 19) attended a Seder in Boston with my brother's family, and since my nieces are 4 and 2 he wound up reading the 4 questions as the youngest literate person at the table.

I'm still usually the one who does the four questions at my family seder -- none of the cousins who have kids live close enough to come to the seder, so I'm the youngest at 45. I'm also the one leading the seder, which makes the whole thing not really make any sense.

Ugh I’m sorry, Calli

Oh Calli I’m so sorry.
