Damn: Bob Woodruff and his camera man were seriously injured in a bombing in Iraq: [link]
Do you see any goats around? No, because I sacrificed them.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

The feeling you get when your brain finally lets your heart get in its pants.
I'm glad to hear you're starting to feel like you again, ita. Happier still that you're happily battered and bruised.
Thirded.
I went back to sleep, hard, after being up for about half an hour at 6:00, and only woke up about half an hour ago. Yay!
This morning/early afternoon, I am doing not much-- a little cleaning, a little vacuuming, a list or two, and some reading. Then it's off to Sparky's, then home for sushi, a little more reading, and Teevee.
Nice day.

I've been trying all day to get into gear and finish a palynology project that's due in tomorrow. It's meant to be four thousand words, and I started off this morning with fifteen hundred. I've now got twelve hundred and an encroaching panic attack.

The status is NOT quo.
In celebration of Trogdor's 3rd birthday (homestarrunner.com), I present to you the original Trogdor cartoon and his 3-year birthday montage.
TROGDOR!!! Burninating the villages...burninating the peasants!

I've been there, Jars. You can do it. Just get off the freakin' internet!

You can definitely do it, Jars! Just focus on adding words, not subtracting. That will help.

What Jesse and Sue said, Jars. You can definitely do it.

Problem the first.
Just focus on adding words, not subtracting.
Problem the second.
Argh.

I have found that, when writing papers that refuse to come out, the judicious application of alcohol can be helpful. The key is only to drink enough to get you a little loose - not so much that you begin to think you are brilliant.
Serious condition + shrapnel head wounds = not good for the ABC guys. NPR has been having all these sad stories about brain injuries among wounded Iraq veterans.

"This bar smells like kerosene and stripper tears."
Afternoon y'all. I think my two weeks of being an absolute mess are over. Besides getting my wisdom teeth out and being pretty much useless week before last, last week I caught the flu. I finally took half a day Thursday and a whole day Friday, and it's possible I will be back to normal by tomorrow. At least the snot monster and the fever demon have been chased away by a combo of Zicam and Theraflu.
I should not have to clean when I've just recovered, it's beautiful outside, and Oz is throwing himself at the door.
My boss when I called in Thursday "STAY HOME! They can survive without you!"
