Ooh, I so wish I were eating pancakes and paczkis! Mmm, paczkis...

But no, I am instead trying to simultaneously recover from an awful awful migraine last night, and do a lot of work before my last day. That didn't work so well this morning--I had woken up in blinding pain a couple hours after I tried to go to bed, so I took migraine meds. And then some sudafed. And then when I woke up again a bit later, some flexeril. Which meant when I woke up in the morning I felt like a donkey kicked me! I did a little work, then took a shower...and when I got out of the shower I was so close to passing out that I just laid down on my bathmat for about 10 minutes. And then stumbled to the bed to pass out for an hour.

That's a possibility. Better than their being off plotting and planning without me.

I tried to make funnel cake tonight as my delicious, doughy treat after catching up in Natter today. Didn't go so well. On the other hand, the house is still standing after I had a big pan of hot oil on the gas stove, so that's something.

ETA: How do you feel now, meara?

Anyone want to offer an opinion on this jacket? [link]

Me likey. And that would look great with a red or light blue scarf.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

I need a fall jacket like that.

We won’t stop until everyone is gay.

Oh, man, meara, that sounds awful.

I'm feeling ok now, just a little drained (I did manage to do work all afternoon, but didn't finish half the stuff that was supposed to happen today--only three more days of work!)

I totally need a waterproof jacket that looks good--I'm hoping NC is warm enough when I go that I don't need a jacket, because I have either my orange hoodie windbreakery jacket (that is great for Seattle rain and standing out for cars) or my big leather motorcycle one. Neither of which are super professional looking!

Mm, funnel cake also sounds delicious. I'd be more annoyed by this stupid diet, but it does seem to actually be WORKING, so it's hard to argue with. And I know I won't be able to stick to it next week in Mexico (YAY), so....

A dress should be tight enough to show you're a woman but loose enough to flee from zombies. — Ginger

That jacket is cute, and it has bust darts -- i've found with double-breasted jackets without the darts, they can be a bit boxy-looking. But that's nice!

ION, I think you talked me into a myTouch, Consuela. My upgrade date is 3/18 (yes, I DO have it on my calendar) and I have to go and play with phones before then, but... Do you like the Genius thingie?

Any day that involves a necessary nap on the bathroom rug counts as a sucky one!

It did make me realize I probably need to wash the bathroom rug, as it smelled kinda funky up close?

Last killer cold I had resulted in me seeing the carpet under the bed when I got up too fast.

Which lead to me moving the bed and vacuuming like a mad thing when I probably still should have been resting....
