Up with the sun

I think this now makes four times that I've had to go on antibiotics in the past year. This can all stop now, please.

That sucks. Mega-strong healthma to Hil.

Just back from hospital - Em's fever shot up to 103.3. She has a virus and the beginnings of an ear infection.

And to Em. How’s she doing today, Aimee?

I was being so productive this morning that I was ready to leave for work early. My car had other plans. It died about five feet from my drive-way. On a hill.

How considerate of it. I hope it’s easy to fix, Nicole.

I'm seeing her tomorrow night. I see a good chance the line "Time to choose. Do you want to play it safe, or will you go for the brass ring?" could come up. Possibly just before kissing her. Well, depending on how things go.

That might turn the tide for me. I hope things work out in exactly the right way.

It was nice to meet you last week at the Hotel. I really enjoyed talking to you about (company)'s technology; the artificial intelligence technology you're employing is [really interesting], and [definitely speaks to my educational and professional background]. If I'm ever in a position where I can assist you at (company name) I hope I may contact you.

I would revise this to:

I enjoyed speaking with you last week at Event at the Hotel. I was especially interested in our conversation about Company’s technology. Artificial intelligence technology, especially Specific Detail, has been a long-standing academic and professional interest of mine. I hope we can remain in touch in the future.

Also, I would love to see an sj basket store, or a general Buffista store in ebay. I couldn't contribute, but I'd love to see all our talent in one place.

Happy Birthday, Abi!

Days shrink and grow cold, sunlight through leaves is my song. Winter is long.

Happy Birthday, Abi!

The basket you sent to the DC F2F was just fabulous, sj. I'm with others in thinking you should start your own business putting gift baskets together for special occasions.

Posted before I finished.

Nicole, sorry about the car trouble, but glad it was an easy and/or cheap fix. Little grease so worth the price, yes?

Raq, I never could get to your link, but I'm assuming from the comments that your baby designs are fabu.

You know, between your baby clothes, JZ's bleach pen work, Deena's tiara-making, sj's basket-building, and a few other handy Bitches' avocations, we might just have the makings of an online store. Custom work, too. And not forgetting the cookbook!

Glad to hear Em's feeling better today.

Mostly lurking...

Happy Birthday, Abi!

I'm home from my appointments. I'm glad I don't have to go anywhere else today. I've got shit to do, though. Ugh. I don't feel like it.

Woe to the fucking wicked.

GC, not a whole lot. Planning on pizza and beer later, but that's all that's in anyway mapped.

Thanks for the birthday wishes.

Pizza and beer are always good! As are presents and cake!

Susan, I'm so sorry for your loss.

What else besides ramen can you scoop? YOU CAN SCOOP THIS WORLD FROM DARKNESS!

I'm so sorry, Susan.

What is even happening?

Susan, I'm so sorry. Peace to you and your family.

"This bar smells like kerosene and stripper tears."

I just got the cutest picture of Oz curled up with the greyhound we're babysitting. OMGSOCUTEICOULDDIE!!

I'm sort of feeling all over the place and flaky. Stuff that I felt all gung ho about a month ago is starting to lose its lustre, and I'm finding new dreams and plans, but they're slightly tarnished by the fact that I had other dreams not too long ago. Back to school? Wait this thing out? Find something else entirely? I know in theory it's ok to not know what you want, even and maybe especially in your late 20s, but dude, I feel like one of those people who are always making huge plans and then deciding, no I want to make this other huge plan.

It should be said, because it really was a load off my mind today, that Mr. H was incredible to me this afternoon. I was really depressed about my all-over-the-placeness, and finding it hard to talk to him about it because I imagine it to be frustrating for him to have someone he's been really supportive of, thinking they had this plan, to go "You know what? Now I'm not so sure." But, he said it's ok, I can figure it out, not to give up on this just because it's been a couple of months, but doing something else entirely is ok too. Then I got a big hug.

I think I'm going to have a bagel, or maybe some string cheese...ooh or feta with olive oil.

ETA: My thoughts are with you Susan. I hadn't seen the beep me before this post. I know you've been in a state of anxiety, and I hope for peace for you and your family.
