Totally unrelated to anything...
I've been invited to two friends' wedding in Chicago at the end of September. What does one wear to an outdoor afternoon wedding at the end of September? I'm thinking I'm going to have to buy something, because most of my stuff is more eveningish. I think.
I think I would have accomplished more if I had napped. At least sleep would have happened. Must do stuff. Don't wanna.
Skippy. Just home for a few moments.
Yesterday was a pretty rough day for both S and I. Physically, she's slowly improving, but apparently five plus days in an ICU, with lights on and noise 24/7 can really take a toll on you mentally (as can caring for someone in said position). We're both doing better today, but we're both quite exhausted.
She'll probably stay in the ICU for at least another day, to make sure she's staying stable, but her release is probably still several days away.
Thanks to everyone for all your ~ma, love and well-wishes. It really does help.
looks at puketastic yet healthy as a horse cat
Yeah, if it were Puppycat? She is just puketastic.
But Kittenish usually is not. And it is the Kittenish who tossed twice or thrice today.
But she is curled up next to me right now and seems okay. A little pissed because I just trimmed whichever claws of hers were slicing me.
I'll fold some laundry and keep an eye on her.

Hello! Am in Bangkok. Am somewhat the worse for alcofrol, so apologies for any wobblieness of this post. Go me! Am now 33! V. exciting. Also, job seems v. promising - am presently in swanky 5 star hotel in centre of Bangkok with assorted new coworkers, and school seems to be A Good Thing. As does Thailand - y'all need to come visit. It fucking rocks like a rocking th ing.
Things so far:
- on first day, went to buy toothpaste, as had notne. Toothpaste turned out, surprisingly, to be sludgy greenbrown colour. Upon closer examination, tube announced apologecitilly "toothpaste is black because of REAL HERBS!!"
Happy birthday Fay!
I'm so glad you and Daniel have arrived safely.
I'm pleased to see you drunk-posting and apparently whooping it up with your new co-workers.
{{Sean and S}} I'm sorry you two are going through all this. All the best ~ma to both of you.

Toothpaste tasted okay and seems to do job, so am putting it down to 'It's Thailand, Baybee!'
Thailand seems to be much shinier and richer than Caioro. This is pleasant surprise.
Cat Daniel came with no bother - paid fifty quid to Egypt Air and he got to come into the cabin with me. Had his box on my lap for an hour or so, then decided that blok on seat next to me was not coming back, so put cat's box there. Yay. Cat mostly good (although, to be fair, was drugged to eyeballs) for first few hours, then freaked out. After a while I fed him valium again, disguised in cheese triangle. Hahahaha! Also, Air Egypt steward bloke was total honey, and let Daniel have his very own meal when hot meals were being handed out. "Would you like fish? Cats like fish!" said the nice man. So Daniel had a hot fish dinner, and was v. excited about it. Bless.
Getting him into Bangkok totally straightforward - nobody gives a shit, apparently. I sailed through passport control with my Durmstrang satchel, my laptop bag and a cat in a catbox (meowing loudly)and nobody said 'Hey, do you have paperwork?' at any point.
So that wsa good.
Man. Vodka is the devil. But Thailand seems v. nice. Yay for that! Am eating Nori Seaweed flavoure d Lays crisps purchased from the 7 11 at end of road. There are lots of Western things, like a Starbucks and shit like that. It is all v. shiny. Think this may be a good thing.
Journey here had quite a lot of hidwous disasters, but will go into more details when sober. All seems (insh'allah) to be well now. Hopwefully.
Man. Am hideosly pissed.
Also, have written lots of Faith/Dean fic, and hope to post it to LJ soon.
Hic.
Love y'all - pucntuation to them as needs it.
Happy Birthday, Fay!!! I'm glad to hear you arrived safely with Daniel.
I just got back from seeing SoaP with friends. I should do something productive now like unpack or cook dinner.
Yay Fay! Lovely to hear you are surrounded by the swanky as you deserve. Yay for being in Bangkok. (my boys have made it impossible for me to type that without giggling) Watch out for creepy wannabee teachers.
