Just to let everyone know, I am still alive. :) It was a fantastic feast from start to finish. I had a few snafus and some stress and once nearly breaking down but for the most part, everything went really well. Unfortunately, I am still hurting in my legs and the rest of my body feels very achy. I hope I am not trying to come down with ( Read more... )

Well, tomorrow is D day. Ready or not this, is it. I hope to get some good prep time in tomorrow once I get to site. I've heard from a bunch of friends and including my brother, who will not be eating my feast saturday for various reasons. I dont know why but I feel very dishartened because of this. I'm not disappointed but it feels stronger ( Read more... )

Ack! Only 2 more days to get stuff done for the feast and I still have a lot of stuff yet to do. Damn pneumonia. I lost 4 weeks of good prep time for the feast after Pennsic because of you. And I still have an elevated white cell count as of Monday. What is going one with you? We're not partners! Go away! I'm ready to get healthy again. At ( Read more... )

Time to go home yet? Nope? Phoooy. Well those 3 hours were officially boring and a waste of precious work time. I feel like I need toothpicks to keep my eyes open. *yawn* Now to try and get some actual work done before I have to leave for the day when I really want to put my head down on my desk for a bit to catch up on the zzz's that started ( Read more... )

Today would be a really good day except for the fact that I have to go to a very long 3 hour lecture from 1-4 this afternoon. We have this chick coming in from out of town to do special "talks" to help us have a "better workplace and environment" here at my company. For starters, I really hate going to lectures. I didnt even like going to them ( Read more... )

I am not going to Coronation this weekend even though I had wanted to go. This really sucks because I really wanted to go and help out in the kitchens this weekend, darn it! Unfortunately, I was diagnosed with pneumonia earlier this week so I spent wed and thurs huddled in a blanket, propt up on my couch at home. I had to come into work today in ( Read more... )

Well, I'm back. Pennsic was great, more on that later when I have more time to write. Work is the suck today. First, I had to sit in 2 1/2 hours of traffic on I40 this morning due to a bad accident near I540 which backed up the traffic for miles. So, I finally got to work around 10:15 (instead of my usual 8:30) and have been going gang busters ( Read more... )

Yeah! I'm almost done with work for the day and I don't have to come back for 2 weeks! I really need this vacation. It's time to destress and get focused again. I look forward to having lots of fun and relaxation and perhaps work on some excersize as well. See you all in 2 weeks ( Read more... )
