Flopped around like a fish on the line last night. That was some crappy sleep.
We're still working on a plan, but so far it involves being sent to prison and becoming somebody's bitch.

I haven't trusted science since I saw the film "Flubber."
At the hospital waiting for my mom to go into surgery. She has had a xanax and is very mellow. I am a little envious.

Oh Dana, here's to hoping for the best for you and your mom.
I have an email to send. Here's to not forgetting.

Surgery-ma for your mom, Dana!
(For my 3 surgeries, I told my docs about my needle nervousness, and they always started gave me liquid Valium when the IV port was put in. Valium and those warm blankies - mmm.)

The secret to great lentils is fat. Lots and lots of fat. Bacon for European applications, ghee for dal.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
Somehow I feel that our recommendations of adding lots of fat and salt to the lentils will defeat Consuela's purpose in making them in the first place!
Wow, I have little to no interest in working this morning, which makes me realize how much I actually do appreciate the 9:15 meeting I usually have on Monday mornings. I don't have to say anything in the meeting, so it kind of eases me into the week.
Meanwhile, my boss was supposed to be in Rwanda all week, but apparently got turned back in Amsterdam because her passport doesn't quite have six months left on it. YIKES.

Huh. That's...huh.
Surgery~ma for your mother, Dana, and calm~ma for you.
It sure felt like I was tossing and turning and awake half the night, but my sleep measuring app says I slept pretty good and I'm actually not tired and sleepy now, so maybe I believe it.

Hey, I'm not a doctor! I just know lentils need bacon!

Hee. I'm fervently hoping I maintain good cholesterol/blood pressure/whatever numbers like my parents have, considering I had cheese with bacon in it for breakfast....

Bacon and cheese cookies for me. And quiche packed for lunch, which seems healthy to me but is probably cholesterol-iffic since I make it with whole eggs and cream (and more cheese).
