The pants I am wearing today are slightly too tight which puts me in the most awful mood in the world. Uncomfortable and feeling like failure.

Awww...Nora, I'm so sorry. I hate that too. I felt that way in all of my pants after being on the steroids. It's just a yicky feeling. You're not a failure, though. Trust me, k?
I just got back from a little trek out into the beautiful day. I needed to pick up prescriptions at CVS and wanted to buy a scarf that will go over my head when I have the gauze. I bought a pretty variegated green linen scarf that I think is lovely. BUT, it looks kinda stupid around my head. Oh, well. At least I won't look quite so frightening. I hope.

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?
Nora, you are NOT a failure. Nope. No way.
I have a situation at work that is amusing me. I have a new boss who started here about 2 weeks ago. Officially, he started on a Sunday, which was the first day of our conference. I spoke to him a couple of times at the conference, but didn't really introduce myself.
On his first official day in the office, I went to his office and introduced myself to him. He then asked me what I do here. I got the distinct impression that he had no idea that he was my boss. Since then, he has barely spoken to me reinforcing my belief that he has no idea that he's my boss.
Today, he sent an email out to all of the managers that he supervises. I am not on that email. Dude has NO IDEA that he's my boss.
Frankly, I'm okay with that. I'll be left alone to get my shit done. Kinda cracks me up.

Nora, you are not a failure. Blame the pants, evil pants!

Nora is definitely not a failure.
ChiKat, I think you should send him an email that assumes you are his boss. Ask him to get you a double tall latte, no foam, pronto!

I like Sparky's idea. ChiKat, that is too funny.

What is even happening?
What if ChiKat likes the foam?

ChiKat, I was just looking more closely at the goodies you sent me, and I am IN LOVE with the fragrance pendant. It is SO COOL!

Nah, babushka-style headwear is very in. (OK, maybe that's just for me?) Keeps your ears warm, covers your hair AND keeps your brains tucked in nicely where they belong.
