After talking about netbooks incessantly at Dana, I finally ordered one. It took me an hour to remember that netbook's going to need a name, and I have no idea what to call it when it arrives.

Edited to add: my first world problems, let me show you them.

Todd

I'm not sure what happened to my Macbook order, but I hopefully restarted that today. She will be Martha.

My sister is beating me at online Scrabble. I start out so strongly, but she hits the triple words/seven letter scores two thirds of the way there. I'm just not a finisher.

Does Trader Joes sell any fizzy juices? I'm looking for some variety in my drinking day.

BevMo? I'm no fan of their alcoholic selection, but their non seems good...

Sigh. I was all excited when I got home from Hawaii, trying to get shit done before leaving for my trip tomorrow...

But then I found out DC/Bmore is going to have a snowpocalypse, and now I'm afraid I'll get stuck there, and/or not get to do any of the stuff I am supposed to.

And I picked up my new glasses, but they fucked up the order. And I have to send them back. But I didn't realize it until I left.

And I went to this cool new place in my neighborhood where they have lasers and robots and superfast internet and most importantly a sewing machine, so I could sew these patches onto my hoodie...but I was there for almost two hours, while we tried to make the sewing machine work, and couldn't. And they also have this superfancy serger, but it was way too fancy for me to figure out quickly (and it was threaded with ugly colors).

And now it's 12:30AM and my flight leaves at 6:30AM which means I have to leave the house at 5AM. And I'm not packed. At all. AAAAARGH.

Safe travels, meara!

This storm is also screwing up our plans. We were going down to my parents' house this weekend to visit, with DH returning to DC on Sunday evening because he is going to Vienna for a week. I was going to head home on Tuesday. At least the DH will still be around to help shovel us out - I guess that's good, anyway.

My office was 58 degrees this morning when I came in. It has now soared to 59. I think I need to make some trouble with building services.

I am still having tummy troubles and yet I am at work. I thought I was feeling better, but once I starting moving, I started cramping up again. I should probably go home. My problem is that I have a dentist appointment that I just want to get over with, but it's not for another three hours.

Yikes, meara! Better luck next time?

Yuck, Sue. Go home! Unless you're more or less OK and can sit quietly at work....

Trader Joes has become my usual market. That's probably a bit questionable but oh well.

I haven't paid attention to every item, but a lot of staples are cheaper there than at my supermarket (milk and english muffins, at least), so why not.

I have my mam/sono 6 month appt today. ugh. do not want. it'll be another week before I meet with the dr. to have them read. did I mention ugh?

Yuck, Sue. Go home! Unless you're more or less OK and can sit quietly at work....

I bailed out of a committee meeting and just sitting at my desk. So I am going to try and hang in there.
