In honor of Don Draper:

I’d like to give the world a hug  
And tell it jokes and stuff

Then pull its pants down to its shoes  
And chase it through the rough

I’d tie it up with bonds and straps  
And check its purse for change

Then leave it out at Moose Grin Hall  
With our cousin who’s deranged.

Sure, suuuuuure it is. 😉

My son’s school just contacted us and let us know that they’re not going to re-open in the Fall. y’all may (or may not) recall that we have been arguing with the school district and trying to get him appropriate care (yay - autism!). We finally moved him to a private school, and he’s soooo happy. And now they’re closing their doors. ☹

I am very sad.

Back to peeling the N.O.T. Chikkie is almost roasted.

I walked into a place & said, “Hi, my name is Peter (Parker) & I’m an alcoholic.”  
Their response was, “Sir, this is _triple_ A; we can’t help you with that…but would you like a map?” :smack:

All homework is completed, all exams are taken. Now simply awaiting those last two semester grades. While the semester technically ends tomorrow, three of my profs were very on-the-ball on grades (another’s class only ran the first half of the semester, so I got that grade a couple of months ago). So far, I have four As, with the other two classes most likely to be either As or Bs (can’t imagine I did badly enough to drop to Cs in either).

Feels very strange to not have assignments queued for attention.

On a side note, while one of my profs this semester is a nice person, the workload for her class was WAY out of proportion. I think in a given week, I had as much assigned by her as I did by at least two or three other profs COMBINED. Please note, professors, your students do have other classes, jobs, families, etc., so when one class is almost half the workload carried by a student with up to four other concurrent classes, a job, etc., maybe you need to rethink this?

Thanks for the birthday wishes. Although I had to work, my husband have a lovely bouquet of roses waiting for me and then took me out to a very nice birthday dinner along the waterfront. The weather was perfect; 73 degrees and sunny and the view was spectacular.

I am well and truly stuffed. Too bad I have to go back to work tomorrow.

So you’re saying you’ll whore yourself out for a crabcake lunch? I like the way you think. I lurves me some crabcake!! I think it’s time to go to Capt. Leonard’s again.

The house is open - it’s mid-60s, low humidity, slight breeze, and the birdies are singing up a storm. Not a literal storm - that’s tomorrow. So glad I can open the house again!!

With luck, I’ll finish glazing today. I’ve also got a couple of loads of dirty clothes to convert to clean clothes. And the dishwasher needs to be emptied. And I should run to the store since we’re down to our last 2 slices of provolone… :eek:

I’m thinking we’ve got a good day ahead! Happy Wednesday!

Y’all know the dream about showing up to take a final for a class you blew off all semester? Contrarian that I am, I’ve recently been dreaming of not knowing when or where the final is for a class I studiously attended all term long.

Still trying to figure out what the hell that is supposed to mean…
