Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.

ita, when do you get your MRI results?

ita's so cute!

Blech, Matt. Sorry you're sick. I just kept hitting mine with OJ, cold meds and sleep until it succumbed to my will.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

when do you get your MRI results?

I had a content-free message left yesterday that I need to return. I have a strange suspicion their office is closed today, but I'll try as soon as this meeting's done and I've had a chance to buy breakfast.

eta: Cute??? When??? Where??

Thanks guys. Lucky throat pain is the only symptom so far, so I'm still clearheaded and able to work sneeze- and cough-free. Surprising how much easier it is to function with a given amount of pain if it's not throbbing directly behind one's eyes. This weekend will likely be hibernation time, though.

That's the pain / That cuts a straight line down through the heart / We call it love

Oh my god, I can't focus on anything today. Why am I still at work?

Someone just posted a notice to my school mailing list about a program in Buenos Aires in May/June that would totally rock. I just emailed to her to ask about how to apply. It would probably mean I'd have to get a part-time job this spring to pay for it, but shit, that's SO worth it.

Also, get-well wishes to all you sick people! ita, I hope you get your results soon.

I'm terrifically busy with my ennui.

so I'm still clearheaded and able to work sneeze- and cough-free. Surprising how much easier it is to function with a given amount of pain if it's not throbbing directly behind one's eyes.

See, I'd much rather be sneezing and coughing than have a sore throat. Sore throat drives me nuts.

Heh, went to the doctor today to complain about my aches and pains (of which there are quite a few), and got a prescription for Flexeril. Which I'm crossing my fingers will be a Wonder Drug for what ails me....

I woke up with a horrible sinus headache, and it's definitely set the tone for today.

They had me in training for two hours this morning (oh my god, they're changing our work database, our timesheets, how we track our work, AND billing, I'm going to kill them all), and then they wanted me to go for a holiday luncheon for two hours.

You want me away from my desk half the day when my inbox is so overloaded I was getting downright (and embarrassingly) cranky with my boss this morning?

Riiiiight.

Yay! We have our heat fixed (although it managed to of course fix itself before the repairman showed up) and an upgraded digital thermostat! One that actually works!

Now I have to finally head to work and hope for parking in the same hemisphere.
