Hello Lovelies!
So, turns out that 7 months of layoff/unemployment then surgery/disability banishing me to dial-up purgatory made me even darker for even longer than I would have expected. Who knew? Have been (reasonably) gainfully employed since Valentine’s Day (only reasonably ‘cause I got the job thru’ an agency and won’t be permanent before the middle of next month).
Started the new job, and tried to hit the Phoenix after hours (Because T1 lines are our very good friends), but Buffistas was blocked and try as I might, I couldn’t think of a reason to compel the IT guys to give it back to me.
I’d check back once a week or so, it’d still be blocked, le sigh, and I’d plan on using the computer at home, but it just wouldn’t come together.
Then, suddenly, a couple of days ago – it was back! I have no idea why, and I’m certainly not going to bring it to the attention of any of the PTB – I’ll just quietly rejoice!
So, I’ve played Skippity McSkimmerson for the past few days – wanted to have at least a smidgen of an idea what’s up with the Bitches (though I probably won’t comment – ‘cause it’s a lot!), and now, I’m back (*crosses fingers, knocks on wood*).
I’ve missed you guys!! *sniff!*
Okay, ceasing now. No more trauma! shall be our rallying cry.
I just asked her about it. She didn't even know what I was talking about. She was all following along and nodding her head, "You remember Steph?" Nod At the ice cream store with all of mommy's friends? Nod And I asked you to bring me the camera?" Nod
"Did I get to bring it home? Where's the camera?"
She IS still annoyed that debetesse "stole" the toy camera I got her at the wildlife park.
Hee.
eta: ET! So good to have you back. Yay for the gainful employment.
Welcome back, Epic!
Teppy, I am glad to hear you are feeling better.
Whee! I just stepped on the scale, and I have lost 40 pounds since August! I haven't weighed this much (this little, I suppose) since 1997, and I'm over the moon about it.
I'm going to a wedding (in an airport hangar! with cases and cases and CASES of champagne!) this weekend, and will post pix of my newly slimmed and fantabulous rocking self after the weekend.
My jeans? Can pull them off my hips without undoing them.
Whoo and hoo!
Yay, Erin! Have fun at the wedding.
I feel very sore today. Everything hurts. It is probably just because of the rain we have had the last couple of days, but it is making me feel depressed and tired. I have plans for tonight, and they should be fun plans. I can't seem to motivate myself to get excited about them or to start getting ready, which I probably should be doing.
Congratulations, Erin! And with a wedding you have a perfect excuse to buy some sexy little outfit to show off your new, condenced hotness!
Yay Erin - go you!
Someone please reassure me that I'm not a doofus for buying, then wearing size 7 Doc Martens Mary Janes, even though I really need a 7 wide, or a 7 1/2. ('Cause I got them for like $22 on ebay! And they're not pinching my toes that hard! And they'll stretch, 'cause they're leather! And Doc Martens for $22!)
Please send in my enabler. Thank you.
I haven't the cash to splurge, but I am wearing the gorgeous embroidered skirt I wore to my BF's wedding in August (it's a wrap skirt, so OSFA) and I borrowed a down-to-there top from another friend, so I am excited about feeling all girly and sparkly.
Oh! Which reminds me I need to pick up some dye -- I have quite a landing strip of roots on me head.
