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

Fujifilm has never done me wrong.

This is true.

I'm terrifically busy with my ennui.

Work cancelled for the second day in a row = a breakfast of poached eggs, smoked salmon, and homemade hollandaise sauce (which didn't turn out perfectly but was still tasty).

Dana, work was not canceled for me (yay working from home??) but it's definitely icy here and I have no intention of going outside anytime soon! So I had two crumpets, one with jam and one with a poached egg, and some chocolate tea.

A goodly storm came through Utah last night and I didn't even have frost on my windshield this morning, just some drying water drops. Yeah, this is not a typical January in Utah.

Not so nice is that I'm about to ruin a Friday morning for a bunch of people because of a series of unfortunate events and an upset foreign government. - shrift

Ugh, my coffee is giving me heartburn. I am going to be DISTRAUGHT if this becomes a regular occurrence.

Dana and meara, stay warm and safe.

Friends don't let friends read "Atlas Shrugged"

Our office coffeemaker is out of commission (actually, it's the socket it plugs into, but the end result is no coffee). Our big boss is a kind and generous lady - she got two big box things of coffee from Starbucks and half and half.

Oh, bless her soul, Todd.

I gave up my mini-Keurig for the greater good of the office. Otherwise there'd be no coffe. According to my boss, everyone just gets their own before coming in in the morning. Uh, no. Not if I don't want to go broke.

"It didn't taste good. It tasted soooo horrible. It tasted like....a vodka martini." - Matilda

whereupon I see my computer and sit down with my coffee and then it's an hour later and I'm either embroiled in the internet or have well launched into work with out realizing there were things I still meant to do before I started.

This is why I think I need some magical computer program that will remind me every day to do things like 15-minute cleaning blocks, drinking water and giving the dog his pills. It should have alarms and possibly nagging and should also track my consistency.

I miss using my SLR. I can't afford to process film and I can't afford a digital SLR. I have a decent digital point-and-shoot that has some manual settings, but it's not the same.

Cats to become a rabbit should gather immediately now here

We have coffee provided, but no real creamer, which bugs me. I hate powdered crap.

All of the nurses where I work are crazy for letters after their names-- so if you were a nurse practitioner with a PhD, and were also a legal nurse consultant, your name might be written like "First Name, Last Name, BS, MSN, PhD, RN, ANP-C, LNCC" There are people with way more (FAAN, FNAP, SANE, whatever). I know it is because nurses have traditional been treated as more vocational than professional, and they want to change it, but it drives me nutty.

Today I got an email from another Admin, who listed her name as "First Name Last Name, BA" Now I want to do it just to be silly!

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

That would be awesome.

So, now I may have two calls about jobs tomorrow? Which is good, but feels like a little much.
