Get up...get up, you stupid piece of... What did you do that for? What's wrong with you? Didn't you hear a word he said? All of you! You think there's someone just going to drop money on you?! Money they could use?! Well, there ain't people like that. There's just people like me.

Back tattoos of the mother is that you are absolutely right - Ame

Thanks Erin. My karate training partner is a nurse and I was describing the issue to her yesterday as - it is fine until it most assuredly is not. I was supposed to be on the next belt test, which is in two weeks, but my calendar already had a couple of immovable things on it. So now I have until September to prepare - including fixing my shoulder.

Not sure what kind of call CJ is on today. It is something in town, non-emergency, but not a planned event. I'm not finding anything in the news that fits the location they were headed to. Will get the details when he gets home.

The artist formerly associated with cupcakes.

I really want to get one of the adult weighted hula hoops. I've heard great things about it.

Art Crawl!!!

I am soooo bored.

Half an hour 'til I get back to my own desk. (BTW, new computer? Still not there.)

"already on the kiss-cam with Karl Marx"-

Luckily, I was inside for the huge dust storm, but they are not uncommon for this time of year...we got some rain too.

Now tagless for your comfort.

I can't hula hoop anymore. My hips just don't seem to work that way.

I HAVE to get one and work on it. I need to get my hips moving for derby.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

I'm running a fever. I had appendicitis and didn't run a fever. I don't think I've had a fever in 25 years.

And a prescription for prilosec. Not sure what that has to do with the fever, but what the fuck. It's not like I haven't pretty much given up on doctors.

I haven't eaten solid food yet. I'm contemplating the coffee cake from yesterday, with some tea. But I don't want to feel it in my stomach.

Ah, well. Onto 90 minutes of conference calls, only 60 of which I have to lead. And I can't actually see straight.

Compassionately intolerant

Oh, ita. That sounds awful. I hope you feel better soon.

I made my own hoop and was pretty fierce about it for awhile. I need to get back to it. I'd especially like to take classes because, while I am solid on the basic moves...I can keep it up [hey now, watch yourself!] for an hour. Great cardio, but can get boring.

I am, tragically, feeble with anything beyond simple turns.

Every now and then, I think I might actually be a little odd.

I'm sorry, ita. I hope this new ill works itself out quickly.

I tried hula hooping once when I was a kid, unsuccessfully. You know what's great for limbering up the hips? Bellydancing. Fun, too.
