Can't even shout, Can't even cry. The Gentlemen are coming by. Looking in windows, knocking on doors. They need to take seven, and they might take yours. Can't call to mom, can't say a word. You're gonna die screaming but you won't be heard.

If I'm stupid enough to do it again, I'm packing a flask.

Or the sleepy sudafed pills.

All you people who didn't know that Jamie Bamber is British obviously didn't watch the Horatio Hornblower series.

'we all walk this earth feeling we are frauds. The trick is to be grateful and hope the caper doesn't end any time soon"

Heh. I didn't know I should have mentioned Bamber's lovely accent -- yeah, he really does sound like pre-angst Wesley. I also loved Not Six!Tricia Helfer.

Incidentally, there's an interview with Olmos and McDonnell in the newest TV Guide that's adorable also.

In other news: Timelies!

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

OMG so tired. How do people do this every day, again? Tonight I go to bed at 10 for reals. On the plus side, I'm learning just how fast I can get up and get ready, after sleeping through my alarm for various lengths of time.....

Hey, was yesterday Emily's birthday, too?

I'm just later and later for work.

I think that's how I did it when I had a real job. As a temp, more or less, I feel some compulsion to be on-time-ish. Not that I wasn't 15 minutes late yesterday.

That's a thing that's annoying: On Tuesday, I left at 8:10, got here at 8:55. Had to wait for someone to unlock the door. Yesterday, I left at 8:20, got here at 9:15. Bah! Today, I got it right -- left at 8:15, got here 9:00, thanks to good connections on the train.

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

Glargh. That's all I have to say about the morning.

Man, I'll be glad when I stop waking up with headaches. I used to be able to pass for a morning person.

I have to say, I've kind of had it with my friends having extended health issues. I can only imagine how much it sucks to actually HAVE the issues.

I'm toying with a sick day. I know I'll feel better in a few hours...but what's wrong with my head that I can't take a sick day?

Ah, fuck it. I'm not taking one. I'll e-mail in "unable to navigate" (the headache really should have worn off by now--usually I don't have to medicate the morning pain) and check back in after meds and a little sleeping. Also, when I sit back and pay attention, the room is spinning. A little.
