ita ! OMG, that's really quite awesome. I'm sure JAR meets a ton of people, as an actor. Very cool that he remembers you so well.
Well, I know all you easterners will laugh, but omg it was below freezing here last night! I had to scrape my car windshield off!
However I got to wear my new pants to work: really nice grey pinstripe flannels from Banana Republic (on sale!). So at least I can look good and still be warm.
I'm sure you're all happy to hear my sister & BIL returned safely from Spain and I am no longer responsible for 240 lbs of dog. I just hope my dog can re-adjust to being home alone all day...
That Hello video is fantastic.
Sophia, that article is so validating. I decided a while back that my body must just need to get rid of a bunch of tears for some reason periodically and will manufacture reasons for me to cry if I don't have any. Helps my sanity.
For Stephanie, Kate, Daisy, any other preggos? [link]
By my calculation, I met JAR ten or so years ago. I will never dis my sister's choice of academia, because that was totally why I could give him a history lesson on the spot (my grandfathers went to Panama to dig the canal--unlike JAR's, they returned to Jamaica), and why I was able to get my hands on a rare book on a topic no one pays attention to.
Well, of course it was really my scintillating company...but, seriously, he was really really nice and we talked a lot. Everyone else was either tired or Charisma Carpenter.
Tim asked for you at NYE dinner, ita.
Well, you know, if he invited me for dinner, I could just tell him myself. Just sayin'.
Hey, question for the hivemind: my mom wants to get second piercings in her ears. Is there a better option than just going to the mall to get that done?
Body piercing-type places, if she's willing to go there. Those are the better piercers, I guess, but the place may be off-putting, depending on your mother.
Weekend and workday fail: I didn't realize that I had forgotten to take my prescription sleeping aids until 2:00 in the morning. I took them but 3 hours of sleep wasn't enough to be able to face a 70 round trip commute on a day with snow, sleet and wind. So, I called in sick.
Weekend fail must have been the same thing because I didn't sleep at all Saturday night so Sunday was a complete waste of a day.
Now I have an earache and I don't know if it's on the inside or on the outside. I get why babies and toddlers cry a lot with these.
For Stephanie, Kate, Daisy, any other preggos? [link]
Ha! But also, wait, Daisy Jane is pregnant?? Woot! And Stephanie, YAY for imminent baby!
ita !, omg, that is way too cool.
We just had a crazy heavy thunderstorm complete with bonus tornado siren. Exciting! Wait, no, I mean DO NOT WANT.
