Oh, MG. That's just awful. Poor thing! Much ~ma headed her way.
Well, a gathering is brie, mellow song stylings; shindig, dip, less mellow song stylings, perhaps a large amount of malt beverage, and hootenanny, well, it's chock full of hoot, just a little bit of nanny.

Poor MG. Poor MG's assistant. This sucks.

I'm still stunned. I knew she wasn't feeling on top and had been getting checked out, but this was NOT on the list of maybes.
I'm just......wow. The call with my boss's boss AND her boss about my "maybe promotion", right before I got this news, has lost all importance.

I’d be lying if I didn’t say that I miss them all tonight…
Jeebus, MG. I'm so sorry. Many good vibes to her.

Congrats, Nora!
Oh, dear. I'm so sorry about your assistant, MG.

{{{{{{MG}}}}}} It's ok. You be worried about your assistant, we'll be excited for you about the prospect of promotion.
Does anyone else remember a story last year or so about chocolate as a cough suppresant?

Because books.
Congrats, Nora!
vw, can you work on your paper if there's no work "work" to be done?
MG, I kept meaning to send vibes for the C situation yesterday and forgot. Glad to hear it's starting to work out. And yay! for possible promotion, although I can imagine the news about your assistant has taken the sine off your day. Much ~ma to her.

I've heard that caffeine can help when you're having a (mild) asthma attack, and chocolate contains caffeine (right?), but other than that I can't imagine it being a cough suppressant. Although, if it, it'll make this sinus infection cough I've got a lot easier to bear.

This is what I've been doing, for the most part...also, surfing the web, of course. I'm supposed to have a meeting with someone at 12:30. She doesn't appear to be back in the office yet, though.

I don't feel I know Nilly well enough to blame her for stuff. I usually blame Harvey, but then he wants to make it up to me by snuggling and purring.
I thought we were blaming Scola these days.
