I'm Here.
But all I want to do this weekend is sleep. I'm not depressed; I'm just tired. Though I do intend to do a bit of laundry tonight, and we will be going to church.
One of my supervisors at work asked me specifically whether I'd be reading this weekend, to unwind, and I laughed and said "no." The truth, of course, is much sicker: of course I read myself to sleep last night.
Though I didn't analyze the grammar, or look for typos.

Sleep is under-rated. Everyone should try it.
Night or Afternoon Mass on Sunday? California!

The Sunday evening mass features guitar music, which the husband despises: most of our local RC Churches use the Sunday p.m. mass as the "youth mass."
Having misspent my youth in a Christian cult in the 1970s, I find guitar music plenty spiritual--but the pre-Vat II crowd don't seem to care for it, as a rule.
Nonetheless, our priest--whom I argue with relentlessly about modern architecture--delivered a fabulous homily. And it was just as well that I was there, since they were short by several EMs, so I stepped up to the plate.

I am hearing "Lord of the Dance" on guitars.
God help us all. . .

Uhuh - sure. I may have fallen off the turnip truck, but it wasn't last night!

That would be "uh-huh." Or, "huh."
If you were Glenn Reynolds, it would be "heh."

Twenty-Seven Days
. . . until I turn thirty-fifteen (the person from whom I stole this numbering system may drop by and claim credit, if she wishes).
I do, of course, have an Amazon wish list, as every good subscriber-supported chick must. (If you do decide to check that out, please adjust the list to display my desired presents in order of priority. It seems to want to default to a date-based "stack system," which is not helpful to any of us.)
Money always works, of course (see my PayPal button on the left sidebar): that helps me to go to blogging conferences, market my proofreading/writing, and fill in a few business wardrobe gaps before the Big Assignment this September/October. Or, you know: I might buy gin and get a birthday tattoo. Those aren't really business expenses, but they are fun.

Green Day?????
Somebody please "pinch" one, and send it to LMA. Better yet, pinch a truckload, send one, and destroy the rest. American idiots, indeed.

Sorry about that; my nephews like Green Day, so I must listen to their music so I can figure out what sort of "real" music (e.g., produced before 1990) I should expose them to.

What you like will serve them well in life. What they like is a function of group-think and marketing campaigns, Also let them know that rap is short for crap, and everything will be fine. Let them know Blondie(Rapture) brought rap to the mainstream, and people with no musical talent decided that it was a good way to make a fortune in the music biz, absent the ability to sing or play an instrument.

I like Blondie, by the way. Debbie Harry, too. Even Tish and Snooky. I don't hold experimenting with rap against them. If you need to communicate with Tish and Snooky, I know where they are.

I don't think rap has been the same since Grandmaster Flash. Or maybe Run DMC: they were the bomb.

Dearie Me.
I'm feeling
quite a bit bitchier than usual tonight. I wonder what it is. Let's consider the possibilities:
1) Joy, it's just that you're tired. Go to bed. Like, now.
2) Either give up volunteering, or go somewhere where it'll be appreciated, rather than working with those slack-jawed, dimwitted ingrates you're hanging out with these days.
3) Men. It's their doing. All of them. They collude.
4) Welcome to menopause.
