Good lord, Consuela. That's nuts. I hope he gets the care he needs soon.
today is just seriously shitty.
God yes. PMS on top of micromanaging boss on top of regular february blahs makes for stabby, stabby.
So that's my dream. That and some stuff about cigars and a tunnel.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
I've been feeling vaguely nauseous on and off today and had a headache, but didn't think much about it until my mother said she had the same thing! So maybe it's some kind of weird minor virus? Weird.

I remember the crazy days. 500 posts an hour. Nubmer! Natgbsb
Perhaps we could do an iChat live reading of Alexander's no good very bad day for everyone.

not your mom's socks.
I hope that's a good Petite Syrah, Consuela. Your poor dad. Your poor you.

Sometimes I think I might just move up to Vermont, open a bookstore or a vegan restaurant. Adam Schlesinger, z''l
My day hasn't been too bad, just lots of stuff to do. I think I finished everything I was supposed to do today, though. Tomorrow's plan is writing a whole bunch of stuff (notes for a presentation, outline for a midterm, essay about why I want to work at a Jesuit university) while my students take a quiz. Tomorrow will probably also include trudging through a whole lot of snow, because the university never closes for snow, and we're supposed to be getting eight inches.

I went out for beer after work, so my day did get better.
ION, I emailed the HR guy at the OPCW to see what was going on with this 2nd position. He replied that there is still no decision and there may not be for a few more weeks. I am getting all antsy pantsy.
I really need to get plans B thru F into place in case this does not happen.

Thanks, and yes, it is good! I might be drinking more than I should of it. But it's better than diving into the chocolate. As it is, I already had a cookie today, which was definitely on the verboten list.

I am prepared to work at home tomorrow. I've been to the store and I'm going to make chocolate stout cupcakes out of leftover stout from this weekend (got a growler, so it won't keep). The growler we kicked was Spinster XPA It's a single hop ale, quite marvelous. The tagline? "Alone and bitter."

Broken jaw but....they just discharged him? Or is he there without treatment? Wtf?
My day was annoying, but not awful. My flight is delayed, which is annoying. I'd like to get where I'm going. I did not manage to get up and work out today so I need to do that tomorrow (since it'll be about 10pm by the time I make it to my hotel). On the plus side, my throat is much better today.

I need to wake up early tomorrow so I can shower before he goes to school. Sponge baths and dry shampoo only go so far. Just kinda worried about my balance.
