My, indeed, JZ. There are officially more pictures of my husband with other women than with me. Ha.

Hi tommyrot!

Did you escape the F2F malaise? I'm thinking that any sucky ickyness is to be blamed on random strangers we traveled with in planes, trains, BART, etc. Because up close and F2F with Buffistas never a cause for the ick.

I don't want to be back in work mode, and yet.

The trip back was ok. On the first leg, SFO to Chicago, I was in the middle section between two very wee people. I thought this would result in sleep, and yet it didn't happen. I slept for about an hour on the gate seats waiting for my connection at O'Hare. Slept about an hour on the way to Baltimore. Maybe a half hour before going to work. And now I am on the internets in the lobby instead of under the covers. Huh.

There are officially more pictures of my husband with other women that with me.

Well, I did see at least one picture of your husband with you, which puts you one up on me. Not that I'm complaining. I get him all year long and have umpty-brazilian spousalicious photo ops.

I am, however, thinking of joining forces with you on the verboten body parts photos thing; next year, I'll enforce your wish for no pictures of your ass if you'll smite anyone who attempts to take a picture of me in utterly chinless profile.

Hi Laura!

Did you escape the F2F malaise?

Naw, I was sick while I was there. I slept very poorly Saturday Night Sunday Morning because of the crap in my lungs. At least my sinuses were mostly clear during the flight.

Anyway, I was so exhausted when I got home last night. I really could have used an extra day off, but I have no more time off left at the moment....

I am NOT sick and Nicole seems to be fairing ok.

Juliana - I now have your wrap and your necklace. And if it is a black, short sleeved, zip up shirt, then, yes, you have Nicole's shirt.

Miss Rocky Mountains declared CJ's game too cold and came back to my house early. We are going to stay in this evening. Both of us are too tuckered for the drive in and out of SF.

I am also not sick. Yet. Since Drew is sick as a dog, I'm not real hopeful that I'm going to escape it entirely.

I'll enforce your wish for no pictures of your ass if you'll smite anyone who attempts to take a picture of me in utterly chinless profile.

Most defintely.

tommyrot is On The List.

Oopsie.

Oopsie my ass.

By which I mean, Oopsie! My Ass!

The Buffista Plague Song (to the tune of "I Got It from Agnes" by Tom Lehrer)

I love my Buffistas, and they love me,
We're just as close as we can be.
And just because we really care,
Whatever we get, we share!

I got it from Nutty,
She got it from Hec.
We all agree it must have been
JZ who gave him a peck.

She got it from Trudy,
Who has a lot of sass,
And everybody knows that
Trudy got it from Cass.

Matt got it from Teppy,
She got it from Fay,
Who caught it in a pyramid
One fine Egyptian day.

Tommy gave it to Brenda,
Who brought it to the prom.
He got it from Jilli and Jess
Ha ha, fortunate Tom!

Lee got it from Aimee,
Who gets it every spring.
She got it from her DH,
Who just gives her everything.

She then gave it to Kate,
And Juliana has it now.
Then Plei even got it,
And we're still wondering how.

Ah, but I got it from Nutty,
Or maybe SuziQ,
Or Suela or Nora or Amy or Em,
It doesn't matter who.

It might have been at the suite,
Or at the prom, or in the loo,
And if you want to be our friend,
Then we might... (Mind you, I said "might")...
Give it to you!
