If you want me to leave, you can put your hands on my hot, tight little body and make me.

Ooh, fingers crossed Dana!!

I had what I was pretty sure was a migraine this morning (it wasn't super painful yet but I felt weird and my vision was funky). Sadly I'm at a site so couldn't nap--took my migraine meds and now the side effects are making me weird too. No winning!!

I am super ready for a vacation. Mine starts Monday! Except while I'm ready to take a vacation I am NOT ready for my vacation!

Every now and then, I think I might actually be a little odd.

Zen and brenda, let's touch base next week, once I'm through the RFP cycle from hell. We'll start making a plan.

yeeeessss

Job~ma, Dana!

I have a literal pain in the neck. Can barely turn my head. wtf

I'm terrifically busy with my ennui.

Jesus, why is it so hard to refill a prescription?

The only job concern is that the evil company that fired him will somehow scuttle this, but hopefully it's in their best interests not to do anything that could open them up to a lawsuit.

Yikes, Consuela, hope you feel better soon.

My sore throat has gone, with this cold moving on to alternating stuffiness/runny nose. I never know if I'm going to make a mess just by exhaling or blow like I'm inflating an inner tube without getting any congestion out.

Do people have NYC hotel recommendations? We are thinking of making a trip just for the fun of it in a couple of weeks.

Sparky, allow me to pimp the Bryant Park Hotel literally across the street from the main branch of the NY Public Library.

All sorrows can be borne if you put them into a story. Tell me a story.

Good luck, Dana!

My niece got caught by the Google Earth camera!

I had a really good parking spot the day it drove by my place.

I could really use a long weekend.

I suspect I'm not cool enough to stay there.

I am a woman of various inclinations and only some of the time are they to burn everything down in frustration

Woo, Dana!

No more long weekends for me for a while. Alas. I could ALWAYS use one.

I also have a headache. I don't think migraine, but maybe, I am getting some weird vision things with it. Took some Tylenol, but it's still here. I think I will try to get through the rest of the work day, though, there isn't much more of it. Maybe take some ibuprofin.

this mess was yours / now your mess is mine

I took the meth sudafed for pounding sinuses, but the pressure in my right ear is telling me to go take some migrane meds before things get out of hand.

And then maybe a nap, because I'm finished with work for the day.

If you're going through hell/keep on going/don't slow down/keep your fear from showing/you might be gone/'fore the devil even knows you're there

I suspect I'm not cool enough to stay there.

I've stayed there (fashion week, no less) and nope. Few of us are. But they don't side-eye you about it. I'd stay there again for sure.

It's in my favorite bit of Manhattan architecture, the former American Radiator Building. [link] [link]
