If you didn't take the ibuprofen with food and/or milk, it's probably the ibuprofen upsetting the tum, Nora. You poor sweetie.

KIds are watching Zorro right now. This class of boys caught a snake yesterday during our Nature walk, and named it "Colitas" and gave it to the Bio teacher.

It's a pretty ok day, except for the $$. But this too shall pass. Dammit.

yes, but the nausea! Also, the needing to move to acquire mild food

Smoke pot. It cures the nausea. May not be the practical solution, but studies say it works.

Imma give this day a gronk.

I'm still wanting to crawl back into bed, but the girl's awake, so that's not happening until naptime.

I have the drunken sailer song stuck in my head. That pretty much sums up my day thus far.

Have you gotten to the little-known "dress 'im tweed and make 'im shuck quayhogs" verse yet?

I'm getting a whole Panda Mom / Panda Cub vibe with Ple and Lilly, with some panda-bundling in between.

Grrrr. On the top ten things I dislike about my boss - being punitive when I need to ask her for something.

Me: "Do you have Jane Schmoe's resume? Partner wants a copy?"
Boss: "You should have a copy of everybody's resume. You should have it on your computer. You should have it in your email. You should have it scanned and put into the tracking system."
Me: [unsaid] "Oh for fuck's sake! It's just easier to ask you since you keep the files, and I'm not even in Recruting any more. On top of which this person was in the satellite office and I sent all her material there."

I miss my boss at my old Firm. Going to her for information was not considered a sign of weakness.

UUism

I was taught, once upon a time, that Unitarianism and Universalism are different. Unitarianism is Deistic (the One God At Most belief), where Universalism isn't necessarily Deistic, but not necessarily polytheistic, either.

And, at least as it was told to be by a Unitarian, there is some tension between some of the old Unitarians and some of the Universalists, because the "conservative" Unitarians do not like the Eastern mythos that those Universalists that don't like have brought into the church. In essence, it's a Judeo-Christian values vs. multiculturalism argument.

I don't know if this is true at all; it's just something I was told once.

Tulsa, BTW, has the largest Unitarian church in the world -- 3000 members. Considering how religioned Tulsa is (something like 80% of the city attends religious services regularly), it's kind of natural that the Unitarians would have a big crowd of people who want a church but not the dogma.

Adlai Stephenson was a Unitarian. I couldn't imagine a major party candidate being a UUist these days.

Day so far is a 'meh'. Until 1:30, when I get to go see Neil Gaiman speak here at the Evil Empire, and then later tonight, when I get to see him again at another signing.
