If you could send me some of your slow time, so I could get something done, that would be great.

I've got skills.

I'd like some of that slow time too. Life, and days, are moving too damn fast right now.

If I can add to the chorus of minor annoyances, I've got this rash. Which I won't go into the whole saga of, but it's no big deal in and of itself, and might be eczema, an allergy, or a fungal thing--we're really not sure. My NP gave me something that made the outbreaks go away but didn't stop them recurring, so I finally went to a dermatologist last week, only the treated bit I showed her was so close to healed she couldn't make a determination what it was. So she said, "If it recurs, don't treat it, just call, and we'll get you in a.s.a.p."

It flared up yesterday. I called. Nothing was open yesterday, the doctor doesn't work Friday, so I have an appointment for Monday. Having to let this thing A) get worse and B) itch like hell is driving me crazy.

And all I can say is Monday she better be able to take one look at this stuff, know what it is, and recommend a treatment. Because I'm really sick of this.

Gronk. Timelies.

I've had two cups of coffee and I still feel like if I went back to bed, I could sleep another eight hours. Instead, I will most likely slounge on my couch and watch my Wonderfalls DVDs. I'm up to Karma Chameleon.

Is your cold any better, Sail?

Normally Hubby is only awake enough in the mornings to mumble at me when I kiss him good-bye. This morning, though, he was awake enough to keep saying, "What are you doing? What was that noise?" I get dressed in the dark because the light wakes him up and the poor guy needs all the sleep he can get. Plus, turning on the lights turns on the cats, who then are all "What are we doing? Are we getting up?"

I hate suddenly having to explain my routine. "I'm putting on my shoes. Yes, I'm just sitting here for a minute. I'm thinking, OK? I'm thinking about what I'm going to have for lunch, OK?"

It's not really any better, but it's moved into its next stage. It's lodged in my throat for now, so I'm doing my best not to cough. By tomorrow it will be into the chest and I'll be hacking the lungs out. I know how my colds go. I've got cough drops, TheraFlu and Comtrex to hand to subdue the worst of the symptoms. Still, they all leave me feeling woozy so I'm stuck at home being bored to death.

I'd like some fast time, Lee. Can we trade? Days are moving very slowly indeed, though I'm still not getting everything done that I should be.

Also, I'd like to remember what it's like to wake up with my nose clear. Which has nothing to do with slow or fast. I'm just sick of waking up to sinuses as clogged as rush hour traffic.

Susan, itchiness sucks. For some reason (possible TMI alert) the seam in the bra I'm wearing today is driving me nuts, and somehow not being able to scratch makes the itching worse.

And I'm in total agreement that it should have been Friday DAYS and DAYS ago. I wasn't even in the office Monday, and I still feel this week has been about a thousand years long.
