So I've been feeling guilty about resigning from my school and giving "only" two months notice, and still teaching half of summer term.
Gee, co-dependent much?
I found out yesterday that last Friday, which was the last day of the clean-up week post-graduation, the head of the high school program at our other campus walked into the office at the end of the day (*after* the boss had left on vacation), said, "Gosh, it's been nice, I've cleaned out my desk, bye-bye," and walked out.
I no longer feel guilty. Even a smidgen.

Hey all, what have I missed over the weekend?
Just got back from the family reunion in upstate NY, and man do I miss it. Saturday was rainy and chilled, Sunday was warm and humid, but yesterday was cool, sunny, and gorgeous. Mrs Sunrise has promised to move to NY with me after the Homunculi are out of high school, and I am counting down the years.
Highlights of the weekend:
The Homunculi encountered bumblebees for the first time, and were incredulous that such big bees are harmless. They were also fascinated by slugs.
Homunculi #2 got a tick on Saturday, and then I got a tick yesterday. I don't know whether those buggers are having a population explosion this summer or what, because I've never seen two ticks in one weekend ever.

Obviously you never should have felt guilty in the first place, but you know that. It's just a sign of, oh, I don't know, giving a damn? My dad taught me very, very few good life lessons (he's a brilliant example of what not to do with life, but in his defense there are also some extenuating circumstances), but one of them is pretty simple: If you're going to put your name on it, you make sure it's right.
You more than obviously care about doing things right.

It was kind of a quiet weekend. Gran said some stuff. Vidmaster said some stuff about the stuff Gran said. Game Hamster said we had to be productive. Cap took offense. Then Hamster amended it to necessary, which doesn't seem better. Nobody likes Game Hamster anymore, by the way.

NH I hope you feel better soon! I kicked my paw against something (couldn't figure what) so I'm now hopping around on 3 paws.
I'm guessing what I'm having now is a stone bruise.
Also don't push yourself that hard, NH! Get more rest and plenty of water!
*Waddles by NH's house with a bottle of cold sparkling lemonade, a emergency cold-pack for future fevers and gives him a pat on the shoulder*
*Hurries (hjuk, hjuk a turtle hurry…) over to Mort's side looking worried. Gingerly looks her paw over, blows on in and wraps a ice-pack around it. Gives her a nuzzle between her ears, and leaves a bag of "cats paws" soft liquorice with her*
Up here its currently around 82 F, which it too hot for pretty much everything in my humble opinion.
Also…
Might not be heading to unemployment (technically 2 whole days of unemployment) as I've been "offered" (as in "take this, or we might have to cut your benefits" - love, the government) a payed "job-training" position at a local breeder.

Er, unless you do something to irritate one. I've been stung by a bumblebee and hoo boy! Biggest welt I've ever had in my life!
(It had landed on my bare hip for reasons unknown, and when I reached down to touch whatever it was, I felt something fuzzy and it took offense and stung my hip.)

Also, when I was at the store this morning, I saw "Baby Brussels Sprouts". They looked exactly like the "regular" Brussels Sprouts right next to them, same size and everything, but cost about 20% more. Just marketing? Call them baby sprouts to make people think they'll be more tender or something?
Duh. Babies are more tender, juicy, and delicious.
