Seriously.  I don't.  For those of you not in Oregon, the current temperature in OR has been in the single digits.  It snowed on Friday.  I made it to work and only slid a little going around the corner to get into the work parking lot.  I went home way early because it was still snowing at 4pm and 7inches is A LOT of snow in the Willamette Valley ( Read more... )

I'm cold and achey and my guts are not cooperating.  Being sick with "stomach" issues sure takes on a whole new meaning with a surgically altered digestive system.

Sometimes I don't think I'm cut out for 40 hrs per week.  I need a PT job so I can be a FT parent.  To who though?  My cat?
