Just as soon as lori gets the transporter up and running.

Meet at a bridge, send each group across, they can stare distrustfully at each other when they pass in the middle.

edit: or, depending on their fields, they sit down and start trading theories.

Oh dear.

Man's Internal Organs All Back-to-Front

Situs Inversus is a rare birth defect in which a person is born with organs facing backwards. A patient in India may be the only living person known to have the affliction:

In Mr Shivnani’s case, they discovered the aorta and inferior vena cava, which pump clean blood in and impure blood from the heart were reversed. He also has two livers.

“While operating we were supposed to know the exact location of everything that we are going to touch. But in this case we were not sure which veins were entering where,” Dr Prakash Sanzgiri told the Times of India.

Surgeons also found he had no small intestine and three vessels supplying blood to his infected kidney.

um, the mayor has already cancelled NYPS for tomorrow?!?!?

Well I guess I know I'm staying home!

I am unexcited about having to stay home. really truly.

Thanks for all the birthday wishes. I'm working from home. Finally exchanged the PJ's for outside clothes. I may take myself out to lunch.

CJ gave me his gift this morning - Tim Burton's 9. I haven't seen it yet but promised CJ I'd wait til he is home to watch with me. KCD called this morning to give his wishes and asked if CJ had given me my prezzie. Then he goes on to say that he had looked for a DVD of Wicked (ummm, hello, Broadway) but figured I'd like anything Tim Burton related (not usually a wrong assumption).

Amy - I had a couple of cups of the fancy breakfast tea. NUM!!! And somehow the box of dark chocolate blueberries is empty. Not sure how that happened.

I just had an hour conference call from home on speakerphone and the phone's battery was only down one bar. Thank you, Perkins. Not living on the edge like with the previous phone.

Now off to office.

Happy birthday, Suzi!!

In less happy news, I just learned they probably won't be interviewing for the new position I want (in another group, thank dog) as soon as I'd like. Which means I have to keep playing nice and probably agree to yet another business trip.

The upside: I may be in MD the last weekend in February if DC/Baltimore peeps are around.

Dear People,

If you do not come to the meeting, we decide when your stuff will happen. If you want a say, you have to show up.

Which is to say, we discussed that request 2 weeks ago and decided it wasn't a priority. Sorry.

No I'm not,
Me

I am sooo sleeeepy. For no good reason. I need to perk up before my Big Boss meeting!
