Ack, Dana -- when do you leave?
Um, well, we listened to aggressively cheerful music sung by people chosen for their ability to dance. Then we ate cookie dough, and talked about boys.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

Greece's financial crisis threatens to take down all of Western civilization - a civilization they themselves founded. A rather tragic irony - which is something they also invented. - Jon Stewart
That's something, but don't they think bad guys could just put their bad stuff in formula containers??
They make you taste it, I guess that's something.
If you're a suicide bomber wtf do you care if you sip a little explosive? Unless it instantly burns your face off or something...

I'm terrifically busy with my ennui.
2-ish. Right now, my flight is scheduled to depart half an hour late.
Also, I got Continental's website to load, and all the information associated with my account is gone. Three reservations, all of my frequent flier miles...
I'm on hold with support and trying not to freak out.

You should maybe go to the airport right now, Dana. I'm sure all their systems are just freaking out and all your info is actually there, just not accessible to you.

If I only had a brain...
Heh. I was reading the NYT and snarling "Knew that, knew that, knew that, knew that." The cardio I went to recently said, yeah, most migraine patients wound up having to be their own doctors.
In the good news, the Topamax may well be helping. Early days, don't want to jinx it. Only two migraines in the 7 days since I started taking it, one day with a flagrant trigger, compared to one every day in the week before.

Whoo!
The Continental support person confirmed that it's website issues, and she could still see my frequent flier balance and my other ticketed reservations. Phew.
I am off to shower, pack, and leave. Wish me not-terrible-delays-ma.

I wish you no terrible delays. Bring a good long book, just in case.

When I get my brain together, I'll post a recap of the entire evening on Livejournal.
If/when you do so, please to post a link - I'd love to read it.
The creators of The Muppets and Sesame Street are staging a puppet show that is strictly for adults only.
Well, they did have Henson Muppets on in the early days of SNL, though they weren't terribly good from what I remember (jokes about the "evil weed" aside). However, I'm still remembering Scooter in the go-go cage in the last Muppet Xmas special which was such a moment of cognitive dissonance I'm partly convinced I hallucinated it.

Dana, I hate doing it myself, but this might be a smart day to check luggage. Grr.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
In the spirit of both balance and testing August to see how many Buffistas can fit into the hospital, I was back in the ER last night.
However, it was brief. Much shorter wait time than the last ER, and despite being quite rude, they were very fast. And I was mostly hysterical before and during the rude portion of the evening, it's not like it affected me any.
Sadly, my head hurts this morning. Red Bull for breakfast, and then some Gatorade. Oh, and Maxalt.
