I'm feeling complicated, but it's not bad. I called Duncan and caught up with the family Holley on my ride home from DnD. I called Greg on my way to visit the family Liebknecht. I'm slowly going through my phone book now that I spend so much time in the car and have a new headset ( Read more... )

I ended up triple booking myself for cat caring duty this weekend. I've got another trip to Waverly tomorrow, caring for the neighbor's cat tomorrow only, and chasing the stray. There's also a trip to Bowie and to Dundalk tomorrow ( Read more... )

Today was a day. I screwed up a bit with work. It's not a huge mistake and is already being righted. I have a minor sinus infection that I wanted taken care of before I head up into the mountains at the end of the month. I did that. I forgot to go pick up my meds post chiro appointment.

Mom, hold me a seat at the table.

I would have had two.

On that note, I'm taking donuts to work. :)

I caught a case of food poisoning or something. I've been up since 3:30 this morning. I have nothing left to give. I'm pretty sure that I don't even have water left to squeeze out. I can't bring myself to want to drink anything or put anything in for fear that it will decide to turn me inside out. I think about 7:45 that I saw my insides as ( Read more... )

The storms should start soon.

Yesterday was a day of blown coolant, odd serendipity, and more Xander time. I have a few pounds of sides for a BBQ that wasn't needed. What the hell am I going to do with that much potato salad? :P
