It's 110 outside and 88 in here, cat. Why are you insisting on being in my lap today? I don't wish to sweat on you

As a former cellist who has been to a few Kix concerts, I'm getting a Kix out of this? 😏

Running theme in my life is how I am cursed when it comes to ladders. I was banned from using our extension ladder by my kids after I broke my wrist in six places trying to fold it up. Now it's the stepladder and it's because someone put it on my foot and started climbing.

The noise canceling headphones are a wonder tonight, until the folks in the street RATTLED MY WINDOWS. Cats are hiding in the basement with BirdTV blaring. The three folks in the house that have to be at work at 0530 are all in earmuffs.

Sounds like a Saturday night mid-run when I worked at Fest. Minus the dog show, which sounds cool

Today's petty victory was that I got to send an email that asked for a charge code. "My boss said that I can do your job, but only if I can charge my time to your project for my labor. BTW, that's 8 hours at $$$" So far, no response.

www.nytimes.com/2024/06/23/h... (should be giftlink) This is why I have changed vets twice since 2020, and I'm about run out of non-vulture capitalist options locally. Same procedure on same animal that was $225 in 2020 is now $1300 and rising.

Oh and my cats are losing their insurance 1 August.

My kid made her teacher tear up talking about MicroMuse's passion in her classes last night at awards So proud of my kid. I am so happy she feels free to express herself like that at school, and that she let me get a glimpse of it last night.

Both places were at $5.49 in early '22. Canned cat food is just as bad, but at least you can find it this year

In a different article (www.cbsnews.com/news/target-...), they talk about a regional grocery chain that cut prices on their store-brand items.

What they *don't* mention is the regional nearly doubled most of their non-generics in 22. Right now a 12-pack of Coke there - $10.49; Target $7.49

I've gotten no less than six texts this weekend on my work mobile asking the same question about a house the previous owner of the number had. Always for the same guy and address. I've had this phone number for 9.5 years (At least I got his grandma to stop calling me in 2015)

There is no honor in making others struggle solely because you did. Persevering through difficulty is worth celebrating, but is often worth even more if you can lessen the burden for those who come after you, especially those less fortunate, less privileged. That way lies glory.

Is it passive-aggressive or just plain aggressive to send your IT co-worker a copy of "DNS for Dummies?"

I had one who *hated* a friend of mine, so he learned his default ringtone to mess with him. Friend changed ringtones three times before just putting on vibrate. I miss that mockingbird

Ten years ago this week I had the weirdest job interview of my career, which led to an equally unique offer letter.

Rough day in a challenging week, so I took the band kids snacks and water bottles. Instant smiles all around. Money can buy happiness, you just have to spend it right
