Oh crap, Kristin, that sucks. Be nice if life would let up on you a little, wouldn't it?
What? She killed 'em with mathematics. What else could it have been?

[NAFDA] Spike-centric discussion. Lusty, lewd (only occasionally crude), risque (and frisque), bawdy (Oh, lawdy!), flirty ('cuz we're purty), raunchy talk inside. Caveat lector.

Ugh. This is the second morning in a row that I have woken up at 4:30 and been not able to get back to sleep. I guess this means I will be all coffeed up in time to go to work...and that I can go to work early and monopolize the copier.
Not enough reason to get up at 4:30, IMHO.
Kristin, what a shitty day, honey. I'm so sorry.

Trust my rage
Morning, Bitches! Joe is already at work and I'm sitting in our "sun room" (that sounds so grand) on the couch with a warm dog curled up on either side of me. The only light on in the house is the Christmas tree. It's so peaceful and quiet in the house. I'm trying to enjoy the tree for a few more minutes before I put everything away this afternoon. Next Christmas will be in PR - i wonder if they have real trees there?

Our wings are not tired.
Ah yes. Peaceful mornings are nice. Puerto Rico has forests, so probably trees. My neighbor's business is there so he spends every other week in PR. Kind of a pain for his wife and 3 kids though. I've never been. Next time I see him at soccer I'll have to suggest the kids go there with him one trip, with me of course. Juan is assistant coach for DH on the soccer team that Bobby and his son are on. (my sentence writing skills have not yet awakened)
{{Kristin}} I'm so sorry. I think you need to plan a little mid-January private NYE celebration. Clearly you are still in 2005 and need to signal the universe that it's time for a new year.

Puerto Rico has forests, so probably trees.
Do pine trees grow in the tropics? I guess I'll find out.
Kristin, I'm sorry about the car accident! i agree with Laura - the universe needs to give you a break for a while.
I guess I should get up and do something. I've been sitting here for almost an hour.

Oh, Kristin! That sucks so much. I'm so sorry. I hope today is a little better. {{{Kristin}}}
Timelies, morning shift! Erin, it's good to see you.
I'm a little less sniffly this morning, for which I am very thankful. Now to start attacking that to-do list I made.

You were a wrong baby who grew up wrong. The wrong kind of wrong. It's better you hear it from a friend.
Aw, jeez. I'm really sorry, Kristin. You so don't need this.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
We had a pine tree that was 2+ stories high growing in our front yard in Jamaica, Stephanie. So, yeah, they do. However, they might not be used to the idea of growing them, cutting them and selling them--Jamaica sure wasn't. However, PR's closer ties to the US might pay off for you there.

So, I call to make my GYN appointment. The OB/GYN Center at the hospital doesn't do routine yearly physicals (or paps). They want those done by the PCP. THAT WOULD HAVE BEEN NICE TO KNOW LIKE TWO YEARS AGO! I've been putting this off for literally two years, and now I find out my PCP has to do it anyway. I am SO frustrated.
I'm still going to see them. Irregular periods counts as a "problem," so they will see me, but they won't do a pap or anything...they'll just talk to me about the irregular periods.
Ok. Radical Acceptance. Move on to the next call.
