Just when I thought I couldn't love you more... you come out with this. I'm tempted to print this out and wallpaper my office with it. Thank you for lifting my spirits on one of those Lousy Days!

I don't think I could love this any more! It's hard to make me laugh out loud when I'm reading on a screen, but this post made me snort right in front of a student. Have a good weekend of non-Shit Days!

Yes! And I definitely need a Shit Day soon. So many little things to get done. My reward will be an old fashioned sour cream donut.

This is the BEST, you brilliant person!

Your idea of Shit Day really resonates with me, I just didn't have a name for it and now I do! Whenever I have things I don't want to do, which usually involve cleaning or some computer issue, I'll check the weather report, looking for the next rainy day to put them off until, then I'll pencil them into my planner (in case it doesn't rain). Now to the store to buy some cookies.
