Actually, I'm planning to do chores today, then go thrifting. After that, I'll have to pack more fun into my calendar around the chores. Still working on the shed project. We have $300 worth of lumber that needs to be transformed into the new roof. It is going to be SO wonderful to have a place to work, I can't wait.

David, the package just came. I can't wait to watch the videos. I'm saving the music for later. When I can enjoy it in some peace. Thank you so much!

So very welcome! Sounded like you needed a treat. It's good music for a summer day, too.

I'm on Day 3 of the stabby stabby ice-pick stabby headache that started as a sinus headache b/c of the impending dramatic weather change (my head is a damn barometer), and is now so painful that whether or not it would be clinically considered a migraine is immaterial, since I have all the symptoms of one.

To console you I will note that a package will probably arrive at your desk shortly, and you can't open it unless you leave the building for lunch.

Also, I hope your pretty head gets better.

Hey, something worked for once! The registrar's office called, and took the hold off my account! Without bitching or anything -- it was really nice.

Sweet! Humans don't suck! Sometimes. Go humanity!

I'm going to try to be extra humane today. JZ and I watched the old 1949 version of The Secret Garden this morning. JZ likes just about every version of it and this one was excellent. Very dark and gothic in the beginning with shocking shift to technicolor when they go into the garden in bloom. Excellent child performances, and fully morbid and perverse dialogue by them too. Dean Stockwell as Colin the sickboy.

I forgot! Great news, Katie Bee! Now you can invest in new and exciting Converse sneakers. I recommend the pink and black.

Ooh! I haven't seen that one! My old favorite was always the Hallmark Hall of Fame version. Then the musical came out, and the cast recording won all my love.

Ooh, yes, the pink n'black Converse. Yum. Must have. Hey, it's going to be great working at a place with no dress code. No matter what I do, I'll be one of the most normal people there!

Deena, tell Kara for me that "you have soul!" Kisses for y'all.

Off for a productive day of workutainment. TTYL!

After three nights of very little sleep, I tried a quarter of the sleeping pill and I way overslept for my appointment this morning. I give up. Sleep hates me.

{{{Emeline}}} I hope she feels better soon.

Happy Birthday, Stephanie!!!

Yay, KB!

{{{Teppy}}} Headache~ma.

Hey, Hecubus, Mom says thanks for clearing up our funky confusion.

KB, keep an eye on the weather when you are planning when to beach and when to chore. Today looks like the last day of full-sun for a few...

Ouch Tep, I hope the headache goes away in time for Batman, at least. I hate headaches.

I'll tell her Katie. Right now she's watching television and is not interruptable without dire consequences.

{{{sj}} sorry about the sleep issues.

(I'm obviously not firing on all cylinders today. I keep forgetting things.)

To console you I will note that a package will probably arrive at your desk shortly, and you can't open it unless you leave the building for lunch.

Yay! X-rated package!

Also, I hope your pretty head gets better.

It might just go 'splodey this time.
