Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

How's the new job overall, Suela?

My feet are cold, but I don't want to put socks over my tights because they pull too tight on my toes, and I don't want to take my tights off. It's a quandry.

In other random news from my brain, the ad for "Hannibal Rising" says it's "a shocker in every possible way." Every time I hear it, all I can think is, really? Every way? (Link safe for work in fact, if not in concept.)

Jesse, pull the toes of the tights away from your toes a bit, then when you put your socks on it will feel normal.

So far, so good, Jesse. Met with the boss today, chatted a bit about things. Still need to take my pal out for a beer and pick his brain for how things *really* are operating. I don't have a lot of defined goals right now, just to get up to speed on the program I'm supposed to be managing.

But not having to record my time in any way is so awesome I'm going to coast on that for quite a while. Err, so to speak.

On the down side, they block all webmail. Pfeh. I can get to LJ and B.org, but I'm trying not to abuse the privilege. And I miss gmail, damnit.

Yeah, I think I can hold out with the blanket until bedtime at this point.

That sounds good so far! I mean, at least you haven't gotten a pile of crazy shit dumped on you yet.

Oof. That sucks! Or, I mean, I'm sure is great for productivity.

our school blocks all free email services which also sucks.

I need to pack clothes, yet I'm oddly uninspired. I did, however, get a pedicure. Pretty toes!

I think I've figured out the best way to get liquid antibiotic into my cat--I pick her up, and then while she's yowling in protest, I shove the dropper into her mouth and squirt. Then, when I'm done, I set her down and she goes and hides under the bed.

Oh, well, just four more days of this.

When I put socks on over tights, I put the socks over my hands and roll them. Then roll them over my feet. It works well.

I left today in a state of frustration with inept IT. Fuck them.

I think I've moved from convulsive cough territory. Now, just stuffed sinuses and cold-voice, but that it a thousand times more preferable. I do think that I was a bit high on the Robutussin today. To the point I maybe shouldn't have been driving, which of course didn't occur to me until 3/4 way home. My limbs felt way, way too other. I was way too aware of them. Ditto my skin. It wasn't like the itchies or anything, just hyperawareness. My feet belonged to someone else, even as I was giving orders.

R has never had that effect on me before. Kinda freaky. Actually, really freaky. Made me feel better, though.

Did you guys notice that one of the CTU men on last night's 24 bore a strong resemblence to Seth Green? Only taller (I think.)
