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....

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

Excellent point.

Glad you're feeling better, and sarameg makes an excellent, excellent point.

And I like that jacket a lot, Consuela. And I agree with Erin about darts.

Cold, kind of crappy fried dough is way worse than hot, kind of crappy fried dough, fy'allsi.

ETA: "Excellent point." x-post.

Oh, meara, ick. I hope you feel better soon.

Do you like the Genius thingie?

I am embarrassed to admit that I almost never use it! Just a few times, mostly I type in what I need.

I ordered the jacket from REI--Zappos had it, and I would have got it faster probably, but it would cost $40 more. I can wait a week. Delayed gratification is good for me!

And now I shall watch TDS and CR.

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.
