bonny, I asked the Assistant Dean if I could walk, but I can't. She strongly encouraged me to walk next year though.
I am, oddly, in such a great mood right now. Like letting that go means I can honestly feel happy and relieved for everything I *did* do. Also, dealing with people at school while in this mode has been so pleasant and I feel quite supported.
So funny!
Sorry. That wasn't an appropriate response.
Ha, no worries, I took it just fine. The whole building is up in knots. It's an Admin Folks production (fund raiser). The admin folk aren't used to doing "productions". The space is still a construction zone, so production folk aren't used to working in the middle of a construction zone. Oh, and we just learned, rigging will be difficult because the building owners purchased scissor lifts that do *not* reach the grid. Um. Ya. Good going guys! Oh, and the director just lamented "if they are doing background checks, my past might cause a problem". Joking. I hope.

Yay! I'm glad you feel that way.
You'd think my brain would be able work out that, if the paper is due on Monday morning and I have to start moving house on Friday, what I actually have is two days to finish the thing. Instead, it wants to play computer games and keeps going "Don't worry! There's the weekend!" OK then.
I think I remember when I had a job, and my deadlines (mostly) went away at 5 or 6 pm. And it was my students who got to turn in papers. Hmm.
IOON, I just rode in a 1971 ragtop Mustang!
This is rather exciting. What colour?*
*Yup. Definitely a girl.
Now I just have to get the word out subtly to my co-workers. Maybe an email.

Honest sympathy is always good.
Whoa. Just started feeling kind of loopy. Tramadol is interesting.
Hil, my doctor started me on it a couple of months ago. It's really helped. Also, I think I hit the side effect jackpot - I sleep like a baby and it's suppressed my appetite.

Eek. I avoid it - it made me sick for about a year. Great pain control, icky side effects. Except for a lucky few. (Enjoy, Toddson!)
Red, with white ragtop.
Oh, so cool.
When I was a young 'un, my dad had a slightly creaky but otherwise lovely, second-hand red Porsche convertible for about a year - an adventure on wheels. I love driving with the top down. (Which I have experienced exactly twice. I live in a very damp country.)
