Ugh, Suzi. I hope you start feeling better soon. You deserve a break!

Coworker angst. I'm so irritated. He is so cranky that I don't even feel comfortable saying "hey, I see you're stressed, want to talk? Is there anything I can do, or stop doing, to make your life less hectic?" I tried doing that in actions and it totally backfired and earned me the stink eye. So now I want to just punch him in the face. Because what I really want to say is "you left a gigantic fucking mess that impacts staff, tenants, and rental, and whined about how you need the mess and more and really it's all my boss' fault that you made the mess in the first place and here's the only feasible solution-- oh, you enacted my solution? I won't thank you for the timesaver that I should appreciate because I'm so overworked, and instead do what you wanted in the first place and give you the stinkeyevthe next time I see you".

Dude, I was happy with your solution.

Since I can't win, I'm done having discourse with this person (including onsite over site when he isn't). He's an island and I'm marooning the fucker.

Suzi, I'm glad you saw the doctor, and I hope the meds get your flu stopped in its tracks.

I have indulged a bit too freely with the rosemary bread, the odd toasted cheese sandwich, random cookies, and I'm now paying for the wheat indulgence. Woken out of a sound sleep last night with full-body aches. Creaked out of bed, downed tylenol and ibu, and slept the good sleep till morning. Gut is not happy with me, still. Banana and applesauce for dinner. I may go wild and put a shot of ginger ale in my clear soda. Woo!

I know that feel, Bev. Not fun.

Ugh Bev, I feel for you

doc is pretty certain it is just so early. She said tomorrow will likely be worse and if it is, then she will call in flu meds.

That's kind of BS. Call them in and let you pick them up and use if you need them. It's not Oxy.

I saw cute coats at Target. I don't really need a new coat and these are not gonna replace my real winter winter coats, but they are lighter and more what I would wear here and like early spring in places that get colder.

So my neighbor has been piggybacking off my internet for a month because Verizon can't fix hers. So I proposed that we look into getting one house high speed, nondsl ( we don't have Fios in the city, so cable probably) and sharing. Because clearly even with one router in my house, she can get online. If pressed, we could easily run a cable from the primary to a secondary wireless, but that's probably unnecessary. I probably use it more heavily than her.

Which, shit, means I have to do the research as I'm actually the 'expert' here.

I want that one with the faux fur.

I'm with Jesse, I like the faux fur collar, and I prefer the longer length as well. Polka dots are bold but you could totes pull it off.
