Spike? It's you. It's really you! My therapist thought I was holding on to false hope, but…I knew you'd come back. You're like…you're like Gandalf the White, resurrected from the pit of the Balrog, more beautiful than ever. Oh…he's alive Frodo. He's alive.

New coworker has a habit of drumming his feet against the floor à la Fred Flintstone. I'm tempted to bust out a pen and make clickety noises until he breaks.

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

That's the one, Nilly.

Okay. Finally off Blackberry for a few seconds.

Pain management guy poked at my incredibly tight shoulder for a couple seconds, at which I was very stoic, and then said he needed to break the tension cycle in the shoulder by numbing "trigger points."

That's when the crying started. Keerist. I thought orthopedic surgeon Dr. Z brought in the pain. But this is also infinitely more depressing, and I'm learning that typing on a full keyboard is kinda painful (most of the shots (of 8) were in the left shoulder). And I have a hell of a lot of typing to complete before 7:30 today. I feel like a cat who's had one side of whiskers trimmed. Plus pain.

Greece's financial crisis threatens to take down all of Western civilization - a civilization they themselves founded. A rather tragic irony - which is something they also invented. - Jon Stewart

I think the big danger here is setting a precedent for the ability of the executive to ignore laws during a self-declared war on a noun.

Hmm... I just said I wanted to tag Tom and now Gud it tempting me...

That man was going to shank me. Over an omelette. Two eggs and a slice of government cheese. Is that what my life is worth?

Oh, ita, I take it painkillers are not helping?

They are painkillers. The irony is not lost. It's to get worse before it gets better.

Ugh. That just plain sucks. No other way around that.

Our wings are not tired.

Wow, that Zillow place is cool. It also makes me think I should sell the house.

Poor msbelle. What they said about it being better after drying.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

Oy, ita. Here's to the getting-better part, anyway.

Good lord, David. That does sound like the kind of thing that would be preceded with several emails.

I am now cranky, due to owing money to the state and city, because none of my employers took out enough! I had like a buck fifty in income last year. Bah.
