[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.
I like this site for dealing with a cold
a lot of it is commonsense, but there are a few thigns that I am sort happy to see there- stuff like takeing a walk and a hot toddy. - Things I've done before, but didn't know why they helped.
The most intersting thing is the positive attitude - beliveing that you will heal. Hard thing to do when you have a cold.
Beth, I'm sorry you're feeling so badly (although your description was very amusing). Sorry Matt seems to be catching it. I wish you both recovery~ma. If you have a Thai joint near you, those Thai fiery chicken soups are miracleworkers.
Got a load of laundry in. Still a bit miffed that the friend I invited to our Mardi Gras celebration who asked me if he could invite *his* friend because she was so excited about it, left with her about an hour into the party. If you're bored, you're bored, but it would be better if he had a better track record of going with me to events or inviting me to his. We hang out together alone doing mundane errands a fair amount, but he has a real block about other things (it's my ex, so it's fear, methinks).
Yesterday wasn't tremendously productive and now that I've got the layoff news, I need to be. I've been reading "Do What You Are" again, networking via email, looking at job ads & company websites, and making lists. But now I have to get down to the thing I most dread: updating my resume and updating it in a way that helps get me out of the admin ghetto I've been in for 15 years. I've emailed 2 friends to ask if they have time this week to work with me in person so they can ask me hard questions and make suggestions and so I can bounce ideas off of them.
When Mary Tilson's radio show is over, I'm going over to an acquaintance's house to pay him for the hardshell guitar case he gave me on trial. I want to make sure he gets paid before I have no money left. If that happens. I'm doing a lot of thinking along those lines. Trying to schedule bill-paying and think of things I need to do at work while I still have easy access to a fax machine and copier.
Hope everyone has a swell day. It's raining lightly here which wouldn't bug me if it weren't so dark. I'm so sensitive to light. When I'm trying to motivate, I really need full sunlight. Instead I'm sitting in the only area of the downstairs that doesn't have hefty bags drawn over the windows (I'm living on a construction site) and I've taken my Ott-lite knockoff and aimed it in the room.
My embarrassing moment of the day was realizing (only after I'd left the salon, gone grocery shopping, and was halfway home carrying 4 heavy bags) that I'd *completely* forgotten to get a business card with my stylists name written on it so that next time I can ask for her by name -- she did a fantastic job, and I want to keep her. (And since "tall Asian woman with long highlighted hair" describes at least half the staff, by name is really the only way I could single her out.) Whoops.
Jess, I love it!! It looks very awesome.
Jessica, that is a great cut. You look fabulous!
What I learned today: my pitcher cannot tolerate hot water. Rather spectacularly. I'm going to need a new pitcher. And hibiscus tea gets red faaaast. So I also recleaned the floor.
He's the one living in Corvallis, OR and I told him I'm going to come out and visit next year. Look for me, then!Whee!
Not only are you a better writer than me, you're definitely a better cook.Help! I'm being flattered by an imposting poster!

Must be something in the air today -- my Brita filter has become incontinent and needs to be replaced.
So, I was having a lightly-flirting back-and-forth email with a friend-of-a-friend, who I've never met in person. He sent me a picture, and he looked pretty good, not OMG! but good, and I said he looked good and sent a picture of me that I hoped didn't suck, and... he hasn't written me back.
ARGH. So, what, did he hate the photo? Is he sitting there now wondering how to back out of our proposed rendesvous? He already said he was sort-of-but-not-really seeing someone, so he already had an out if he decided he wanted coffee but no Coffee. Did my saying I wasn't seeing anyone somehow sound like I was already marrying him in my head? He's read my LJ, he's seen the icons that are pictures of me, how surprising could it have been? I thought I looked all right. Is this ridiculous? How can I be suddenly so emotionally invested in something that didn't even exist a few hours ago? Good grief, this is exactly why I don't date! Someone give me a sanity check, here, please!
Must be something in the air today -- my Brita filter has become incontinent and needs to be replaced.Convienently, there were all large pieces of glass. So cleanup was annoying but not a bleeding experience.
JUST TALKED WITH MY NEICELET! I am so happy. God, I miss her like crazy. And my mail will finally go through to her. I loathe and would happily mutilate my brother. And my SiL for good measure. Asswipes, the both of them. So I am back to writing her every day again now. And I can send her stuff. Anything but food. Must find prezzies for her. I can't believe how happy I am to finally have neicelet chat again.
Meeting Epic soon. Must shower. Must also pause tv cause the vroom cars are mesmerizing.
calm - calm calm . umm, he might have had something to do. maybe his pitcher broke and he needed to clean the floor.
that's a cute haircut jessica.
I made lots of soup. I t has spice . just enough
