I am sleepy. Unfortunately, my day is not over. Still have tutoring and work.

Sleep wanted NOW!

Rescheduled exam with no-show prof. Apparently I missed her by about 2 minutes. Oh, well. I wouldn't have had time to take the exam anyway. I'm taking it on Friday now. I just want the damn thing OVER.

I'm getting the pig!

writing a letter regarding the tickets is most likely to be responded to with a "well ok" than a "no". That is how I've had my last two non-delinquent parking tickets dismissed.

Really? Okay then. I have the PO Box address for disputes and I'll type up a letter. If it worked for you, and you live on a hellmouth, it just might work for me.

1 x 1 went well. Since I called out sick the last two days, I wasn't sure it would. Yay for no ugly surprises.

I hope that it's good medical information, and I hope nobody ever has to use it.

This. So very much. I've stayed away from the full breakdown of the ruling in SD because I haven't been in the best of moods as it is. I'd only seen a comic somewhere that hinted about rape/incest cases not being handled as special issues.

I can think of one "House-like" reason that won't work? NOTADOC: How far along are you? PATIENT: Um...

I'm feeling sorry for myself.

Just ate lunch. Again. After having two breakfasts and a morning snack.

Sick of steroids. Got two more weeks to go on them. Blech.

Hmmm...I wonder if we can get a hot vampire to come out of the hellmouth and play with us in May.

Ok, is there a rule for tipping a stylist when you end up rendering first aid to her?

I ask this because at my usual once a year, trim off a couple inches so I don't end up accidentally tucking my hair in my pants when I'm getting dressed, at a place where the cut itself costs $11, I usually give $1. This time, I went to a nice salon. Total bill was $39.64 including purchase of an anti-frizz product by Aveda. The stylist wasn't one recommended by a website specially for curly hair, but she has a mini-specialty of dealing with curly hair, and did a splendid job with mine. It looks terrific, all bouncy and cute. Complementary scalp massage, which felt marvelous, was included. She also braided the long hair before chopping it so I could keep it, as I requested. And as I said, I love my hair.

She snipped off a nice chunk of skin from her knuckle while working on my hair. And wanted to just slap a glove over her bandaid, which had already gotten saturated with blood, so she could keep cutting my hair. I looked at her wound and said, "Oh, no. You need to sit down for a few minutes and apply pressure." I hopped up and sat her down in the chair, and got some tissues and held it for about five minutes. Then when I could see the bleeding had stopped, she got another bandage and glove, and we switched places again, to finish the haircut.

I went with $5. When I go back, and I will, do I need to add more to make up for being stingy, or do I ease up on the tip?

I've never been on steroids so I don't know but how hard is it to deny the cravings, vw? I'm not judging or anything, like at all, I'm just wondering. And I'm sorry you're down, hon.

I did really well till yesterday. Then all hell broke loose. I was hoping today would be better. But, I'm at school with a plethora of coffee shops, food court and vending machines. My little lunch and snacks I brought just didn't do the trick.

I'll try again tomorrow.
