And it is awesome! Makes it so much easier. Thanks!
I just spent the last two hours running a teenage book club and a homework club at work unexpectedly. Children can be pretty funny I have realised but certainly draining in this situation! Makes me feel old!
Definitely looking forward to a glass or two of wine this evening to unwind.

Relieved to be home. Worked a half-day, then left at noon to pick up Magickmaker at college in what could end up being the worst December snowstorm on record for our area. What is typically a 6-hour trip took 11 hours -- and that includes the first 4 hours or so on dry pavement going 75-ish mph. The roads were *horrible*. On the way home, we passed three accidents where the cars had flipped, and too many spinouts to keep track of.
It's supposed to keep snowing all day tonight, tomorrow and maybe tomorrow night as well. Sure hope they get the airports reopened in time for our flight to Colorado on Monday....

Well, I am awake at ungodly hours yet again. Work was good this week. I learned some new stuff. Made some art school students feel really good by complimenting their work. One kid's comic art was so cool I wanted to keep copies for myself. I told him that and he said I could and was so totally thrilled I thought he might cry. He was so stressed and worried about his final and he had absolutely no reason to be. HIs work was amazing/brilliant/gorgeous/magnetic and fabulous. He was standing there at the counter and I could see the stress on his face and I held up a print of his work and said, "I've seen an assload of art finals and this is by far one of the best so you have nothing to worry about, you are gonna ace the finals and if your professors don't give you highest marks you come see me and I'll give them what for." He had a classic style for comics with a very distinctive flair and a color insight that was amazing. I would not be surprised to hear his name in film futures.
Now if I could just find a way to wear live bees as jewelry all the time.....

Careful. You might pick up a stray.
Life is a waste of time
Time is a waste of life
So get wasted all of the time
And you'll have the time of your life
Seemed to snow heavy here this evening but it didn't lie. Skies are clear now so the slush will freeze to ice by tomorrow no doubt, and be treacherous.
By the way, all you USers, it's spelt p-l-o-u-g-h
