Why did Darth Vader cross the road? To get to the Dark Side!

Uh oh -t, you have an allergy I take it? Sending chillax vibes to your immune system.

My memory of school bathrooms is that they are stinky and awful and full of kids misbehaving no matter what gender the kids. I only entered under duress.

Cats to become a rabbit should gather immediately now here

Oh no -t!

I have a question for work. I may have to have a student take a 10 panel drug test (because their clinical placement requires it). We need the student to pay for it and the results to come to us. No one here (a healthcare facility) seems to know how to do this! I want to at least give the student a way to get started-- do you think they would call their doctor's office? I have also tried googling, and come up with nothing except stuff like this, which seems a little shady [link]

I'm terrifically busy with my ennui.

Who's in Houston? Dana for sure, but anyone else? Looks like I'm going to be in town for a meeting next week, the 11th and 12th.

Just me. Where are you staying?

Yeah, allergic. If my googling is anything to go by there should have been less than 3 oz of almonds in there, probably way less, which should be manageable. The "E3 Live Cocktail" is actually making me feel better (I read the ingredients of this one first) and I have more benadryl. As long as I stay awake for the drive home I think I'll be okay. It's just, you know, stupid. I have been reading ingredient lists all my life, why skip this one?

We get sent to a local lab for drug tests, Quest Diagnostics. I think I probably paid for it but I don't remember.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

The ballot consisted of six judicial positions, five of which were uncontested.

My all-time favorite ballot was judges in NYC -- it was all the same names listed under each party.

Turns out I was trying to pass it over the top of the stall because I was standing up, and she was expecting me to pass it under the stall because she was sitting.

Ha!

Not so nice is that I'm about to ruin a Friday morning for a bunch of people because of a series of unfortunate events and an upset foreign government. - shrift

-t, I'm so glad you're OK.

Where are you staying?

I have no idea yet. This literally just came up today. The meeting is with Harris County, and it could be at their facility or the Flood Control facility. Trying to decide if I should just stay close to the airport.

Which airport? I forget if you're a Southwest person or not.

Regardless, I usually work from home on Wednesdays, so Thursday would probably be better for me. But if you're flying out Thursday evening, I can swap my schedule around.

Delta, so IAH. Unless Hobby is cheaper; I haven't even checked.

Flying in on Wednesday, meeting is at 2 pm on Thursday, then heading directly to the airport after. Such is my life for these meetings.

Okay, I can do Wednesday dinner or Thursday lunch, in that case. Just let me know.

Edit: Or Wednesday lunch, depending when you get in.

I do not like this coconut water. I'm pretty sure I've had coconut water that tasted fine, but this does not fit that bill. This cleanse is not doing to well for me taste-wise, one out of four I would drink again (two yet to try).
