Oooo...does this mean we'll get to hear stories and smites all day? I love those!
Stop that right now! I can hear the smacking!

Shit's all sorts of different now.
The first story of the day:
Caller: Is [service manager there]?
Me: No, I'm sorry. She's not in today.
C: Is [general sales manager] in?
M: I'm sorry, but I'm not sure if he'll be in today.
C: Is [internal advisor] in?
M: I'm sorry, but she isn't. However [asst service manager] is in today. Can I connect you to his voice mail and he'll return your call?
C: If he's there, why do I need his voice mail?
M: Because he's not standing in front of me.

C: Nevermind.

Glad Bartleby seems fine! Dogs and their compulsion to eat everything, it's a weird lack of self-preservation they have.

Ok. Girls with Mirena, got a question. I'll whitefont. It was inserted on January 5. I'm clearly having my period right now. The cramps are from hell. I can hardly move. Did you guys experience this the first couple of months? Please tell me this is gonna get better.

VW, it should get better. By the time mine came back, though, my body had already adjusted.
My plan is to get a medium to dark brown (L'Oreal Color Spa is what I usually use, and it seems to me that it dries my hair out less than the Natural Instincts did) 28-day color and color over this mess. Like, today. Is that reasonable? Too soon/pointless because the color won't take or something?
Before you do anything, do a soap cap (mix dishsoap and a small amount of household peroxide, apply to damp hair, wait five minutes, rinse) and see what it looks like. That should strip a fair amount of the color. In general, I try to wait three days before I decide to correct something.

OK, soap cap it is. Thanks, Plei.

I’d be lying if I didn’t say that I miss them all tonight…
Gronk.
I'm going to try stripping & re-coloring my hair today. We Shall See What Happens. I also need a neck trim. I don't think I'm going for a run today - my cramps were so bad yesterday that I went home after bartending and took a Percoset. Whoooooo. I thought maybe I'd be immune to it after taking it forever, but not. The pain relief was like a frickin' freight train. So nice. The hangover today is not nice, but I don't regret it.

Life moves pretty fast. You don't stop and look around once in a while, you could miss it.
Thank you everyone for your advice and support. It means the world to have you there!
I am at work after a great time skating. I have an hour to drink 32 ounces of water (the easy part) and then not pee (the not-so-easy-part) before I run off to get my pelvic ultrasound. I have prescribed myself animal crackers to help with the water drinking and the combo is working a right treat.
