Sigh. Yeah, thanks Nora. I'm just really wiped out and dealing with the type of little petty crap that by itself isn't a big deal but together adds up to be a total PITA.

I loved Mode. Sniff.

If the existence of cool clothes for fat girls is responsible for keeping them fat, I'd like that tiny-dicked Salon author to explain why I was fat in the 70s and 80s, when only polyester existed.

Notice no one ever bitches about men's Big and Tall shops. No, because they're "muscular" and "strong."

I'll show them strong. I mean, really. What is WITH this upsurge in Fat As Moral Failing recently? It's always been out there, sure, but it really seems like it's increasing.

Say, is anyone familiar with the meds "Triazalom" "Temazpan" or "Flurazepan"?

Triazolam is Halcion, temazepan is Restoril, and flurazepam is Dalmane. They're all older meds, in the benzodiazepine class, whose big downside is that they don't leave your body quickly, so you're groggy as hell the next day.

If those are your only choices, I say take 2 Benadryl instead. Seriously.

Back to work, which is eating me from my bottom, and my incompetent!boss has fucked up large twice, both of which have directly impacted me and slowed me way down, and yet he still expects me to meet his deadline. The first fuck-up, I literally (for the first time ever) laughed in his face. The second time I think I growled.

Um, ownership society? er, moral center of Americacakes blah blah blah?

It's what happens when you get frat boys "No Fat Chix" in office.

Man, that article started making me hate everyone and everything again. And I was doing better!

Thanks, Steph! I knew you'd have da goods.

Or, could your doctor write a Rx for half a month's supply of Ambien, instead of a full month? That way it would be cheaper, and since you only use it a couple nights a week, it would still last almost a month.

Okay, back to work for real now.

Good idea. Double check with your insurance, though, because I know with mine it would still cost the same.

It's what happens when you have a president who thinks it's more important to exercise an hour a day than it is to read presidential briefings--you know, the ones like "Bin Laden Determined to Attack in the U.S."

Trudy, if you can get one of the older, sedating medications for a minimal price, maybe you could take it on weekends, when the sedating effect might not matter that much, and use them to eke out the Ambien. Those drugs are all somewhat addicting, though.
