Feeling seriously bummed this weekend ( Read more... )

It was nice coming home to an empty apartment--except for my quiet, snoozing Miss Misty, of course--for the first time in who the fuck knows how long ( Read more... )

I've got six days off, starting tomorrow ( Read more... )

One of the things I find most frustrating about myself: when my head hurts, I clench my teeth... which only makes my head hurt more. It's not a conscious decision.

Please keep in mind these are beautiful, adorable kids. I'm just a grump who doesn't want to deal with them for more than the tiniest bit at any given time.
