You've smelled his hair???

Ah, Jessica makes much more sense to me now. I get it. Chickenmilk. Mmmm.

I got a call from a client in Wisconson last Friday who lived on..

Rondivoo Lane

Yes. Spelled exactly like that.

No. I think if I get within sniffing distance, I would have just become woozy and stammery. He's either so very gay, or so very metrosexual, that he talks about product and buying shoes.

I just realized that making lemon butt chicken tomorrow would be cruel. I never cooked for this guy when we were dating, doing it now when he's married to someone else just seems like taunting. I have cooked for her though. Dilemmas of the modern world... What to make for the ex and his wife when you are bribing them to watch your cats while you go out of town.

Yes. Spelled exactly like that.

Somebody in the city planning office needs to be shot in the head with an unabridged dictionary fired out of a cannon.

Mini-meara:

Deena, did you see that we liked your paragraph you added? Ima steal it!

I saw your dad did; I'm glad you like it too.

This missing once a week thing is getting old and harder to explain.

It happens. It'll get better. You're worth any frustration it might cause them.

Ben has to go to the doctor this afternoon.

Oh, Cindy. I'm so sorry. I'm glad you did his homework and I hope it's nothing serious but that they figure it out and are SURE it's nothing serious and can convince Scott, Ben and you of same.

Leg-healing-ma for Anne and catch-the-SOB-with-concrete- evidence~ma for Maria, along with vibes for springing back for Maria's family.

Em called me "mama" for the first time on Sunday in the airport.

I love this! So sweet.

I just want something good to happen.

Mary Balogh!

many good things-ma for Cass, Erika, Susan and Sean.

Today went okay. Doctor visits and accomplishing of things. I have mega-dry-eyes due to the psoriasis and am on a new "treatment regimen" that includes washing my eyelids and lashes with Johnson's baby shampoo every day. Over the course of the next week, I have to schedule a mammogram, a visit with a dermatologist, a visit with a gastroenterologist and x-rays of my hands and feet. This doctor doesn't let the grass grow. She put me on wellbutrin. If I start acting weird(er) (again) over the course of the next few weeks, please let me know.

Try to post 3 times and nothing happens, try again and it posts twice.

This is not yet proof of weirder behavior, I swear.

I have the pretty laterns above my bed lit with tealights. Good things are happening already, Deena. Which, sadly, does not mean porn -- but it is cozy and pretty.

Pretty tealights are always good things. I have been inspired to put candles around (in tall places) so I can light them after the babies go to bed. Just because no one else in the house gets it doesn't mean I have to do without.

We bought a new coffee maker today since ours died a couple of weeks ago (the horror!). The new one is all space agey shaped and has the interrupty feature (the last one didn't and I didn't realize it and my interruptions probably contributed to its demise). I have coffee! Late, but I'm not caring at this moment.

I get to answer meara in my own meara! How meta...

You two have been together for quite awhile now haven't you ChiKat?

A little over a year, so yes. It was time for one of those talks, wasn't it?

Though the lemon-butt is a possibility for tomorrow, now that you mention it.

Ummm.... lemon-butt chicken??

Doctor visits and accomplishing of things

Deena, I'm glad you're getting some results from your doc! I hope the new meds work out.

Now, I must away and finish my midterm!

::swoosh::

{{Cindy and Ben}} More hoping-it's-nothing~ma for you guys.

{{Susan}} All the hairpats you want, sweetie. There is a light at the end of the tunnel.

ImemeN, which may or may not be of the good, I finally had an interview at work for a position I applied for nearly two months ago. There's only two of us applying for it, so we should know fairly quickly who it went to, but I'm almost afraid to know. I'm so tired of being turned down. I think I'm the best candidate, but, hey, I'm biased, so what do I know. At least we finally got it over with and I'll know one way or the other soon. I was starting to think they were going to decide to just eliminate the position. Fortunately, my supervisor really wants someone in that position, because as a reservist he often ends up spending anywhere from 2 - 4 months totally gone while he's either in training himself or giving training to new recruits. Plus, they are talking that if he gets activated (which is becoming more and more of a distinct possibility) whoever gets the assistant team lead job will have to step into his shoes and (this is the good part) will get paid as a full team leader while he's gone. Extra money never hurts, even if it's only for a year.
