I have an entire season of Pros. For the record.
And between work and krav, you'd have time to hang out when?
Stop trying to bogart the shrift.
You've got dibs.
Actually, shrift, I'd be lying if I said I didn't think you hated me or something for never even proposing a visit when we're so close
Oh, I don't hate you! Not at all. But I'm not exaggerating when I say that I'm clocking 10-12 hours a day plus commuting a fair distance daily on top of that, taking no lunches ever, and working many weekends. I think I've left town a whole five times this year; three conventions, one weekend stay at Lake Michigan for my sister's birthday, and one thing in Indiana for my mother's birthday.
I'm not fun when I'm this tired. And right now, I barely see my own family.
(Man, I hope I'm not busy or anything.)
Dude, now I'm hoping I don't have to punk out for some reason, because then I'll feel like even more of a jerk.
God, I was gonna visit Teppy, too, and that hasn't happened because of work. I suck.
You've got to be willing to do the work to earn the shrift.
I get social anxiety.
t shrug
It's a thing.
And between work and krav, you'd have time to hang out when?
...
I get social anxiety. <shrug> It's a thing.
If I'm not actually there -- no need for anxiety! It's a brilliant solution.
(OK, not the thread for it, but...Dana! Hee. I love your tag/that song)
Which series is better MI-5 or Spooks?
What ita said. Spooks *rocks*. MI-5 seems... oddly jumpy. Turns out we lost most of the B-stories and character stuff.
Not too bad a year, work-wise. Got a bonus today. And we had a hugeass potluck with more food than anyone could hope to eat. Was rather nice. Plus, I'm bringing some food home.
Huh. I seem to have wandered into Natter.
Or possibly F2F.
A couple of overdue squee's for lovely cards from Sail and Bev that came yesterday. Thank you!! Must plan numerous road trips in 2005!
Also, today I came home to a box and I'm assuming that it's from my sekrit santa. LEE! You lovely, lovely woman!
I now have all the fabulous fixings for a complete spa day at home: Oodles of bath stuff and a massage bar from Lush. Practically every type of chocolate mint candy that exists. Gourmet chocolate mint cookies.
Cool plastic glasses (so I can drink and bathe AT THE SAME TIME!), AND a Nightmare Before Christmas towel/washcloth set!!!!
Those of you that read lj already know that I've requested Lee's hand in marriage. In fact, I'm down on bended knee (while eating a chocolate mint cookie) and hoping she accepts my proposal.
Bouncebouncebounce!
I also got gorgeous cards from people, and they've arrived in the first year ever that I am not sending a single holiday card made of a dead tree, period. Not an ecological statement - my head just tries to explode when I try and keep track.
But I will be sending out packages of baked things, most likely after Christmas so as to have them have a shot in hell of actually getting there while still fresh, to quite a few people. In fact, if you live elsewhere and I have your address, there's a distinct possibility of you receiving food.
Of course, if you think I don't have your meatspace address and want food, y'all had better ping me with it.
Oops! I've been informed by the lovely Lee that she's not my sekrit santa. Many, many apologies to my actual sekrit santa!
Which means Lee is just all around awesome and I still have a sekrit santa gift coming.
How cool is that?
erika, lexine will be in your neck of the woods for A's spring training. I'll testify to the loveliness that is your city in spring. It's a fabulous place to vacation then.
