erika, maybe he lost a dare?

Ha! That was totally my first thought as well.

Tonight, I go to Gilbert and Sullivan with the fam.

Which show?

Crap, P-C, you had to ask me that, didn't you? I'ma have to go look up the schedule for the Madison Savoyards, they do one G&S a year.

ETA: Their website says this year's production is "Patience", or "Bunthorne's Bride". Sounds like William the Bloody-Awful-Poet would have been quite at home there.

health~ma to Raq.

I woke up with a blindingly bad headache, got ready for work anyway, and then decided I couldn't go in when my head felt ready to explode. I went back to bed at about 9 and woke up at noon. Head is still achey but not as bad. This is bad cause I worked from home yesterday, and I'm working from home Mon-Tues next week due to new air conditioner being installed. Whoops!

Health~ma to Raq.

Poor Glamcookie. No head aches. They are not allowed. But, new a/c? Yay!

I'm on deadline for a project at work and so for this week, I've written over 100 pages. I still have another 30 to go today and more next week. This is the fifth set of 6 reports for this client and it's the last set. I CANNOT wait for this to be ovah.

Biopsy ~ma, Raq.

Headaches are bad. Ever since I got off the plane in CA, I've been sneezing and wheezing from something that blooming/dying/molding/shedding so errand #1 at lunch is to go out and get myself some super-soft tissues. My poor nose is raw.

All the professors seem to have come back to work today. We've had a run of research requests to which my answer has uniformly been, "You're kidding, right?"

I love Patience ! It's tied with Yeomen for my favorite. It's got one of the better plots.

But, new a/c? Yay!

It is a yay, but for the $7,000 it's gonna cost us, also a boo. We knew that the AC was old and probably wouldn't last long when we moved in, so it's not a total surprise at least.

Oh my. The office baby Goth (so young, so wee, so adorable!) came in today in a black (of course) t-shirt that says,

I'm with I AM the Drummer.

Love it!

It's annoying, and sometimes dangerous -- but truth be told if *I* had diplomatic plates I'd likely indulge in some eccentric parking, clipping the odd red-light, more than a little bit of speeding...

See, you don't need dip plates to do this in Athens. In fact, if you don't drive in an annoying and sometimes dangerous manner, you don't get anywhere.

I mean, a woman was struck and killed by a car here last week - while she was walking on the sidewalk.

Raq! Go drive really REALLY fast! Park somewhere absurd! It'll be FUN!!!!

Sadly, we Americans don't get the Can-Do plates here. It was kind of fun to be back in a dip car in Moldova (not to mention the diplomatic lounge at the airport).

JZ, if it will help with the duckbites, I've started to dink with some of those children's designs [link]

ma~~ raq.

Sent piles of paperwork to the EDd , claiming I was not on monkey crack , but I make no claims about my employer. Looking for the nope, you don't owe all that money ma~~

so, there is a rumor that Emily will be in town.
