Jilli-in-a-palanquin is a far better image.

Does that mean I'm getting a palanquin? There is a holiday coming up ...

Jilli, sorry your minion's on the way out.

She took the news just fine, thank goodness. I told her I would give her glowing references, and that I was very unhappy about losing her.

How did the work party thingie go, Jilli?

I didn't stay for it. It was insanely crowded. Like, push your way to the front of the concert crowded. I refuse to deal with that sort of crush unless there's a band I like on the stage.

Good call.

Wow. I wasn't that much of a Daniel Radcliffe fan. Wow.

Job ~ma for the rest of the day, beth. I hope it's been going well so far!

Yay Nora and lisah on the pants!

Happy Birthday, Anne!

I've been working on getting to California for my birthday, but no luck so far. I'm running into Spring Break, which is driving up fares and Holy Week, during which my absence will inspire the wrath of my choir director. I haven't given up, though. Still working on finding a way around this issues.

If this last paragraph seems even more boring than usual, it's because I'm trying a new thing of not complaining. I am allowed to explain, but complaints, I'm finding, can be much more witty and interesting than explanations.

Maybe San Diego would be easier than LA or SF!!! (No, not logical, just bein' greedy!)

Thanks for the itchy support! :) Meant to go out and get some benadryl when I got here last night, but for some reason, even though it was 7pm here, which is only 10pm at home, I was *exhausted*, and didn't want ot leave the hotel room.

Portion control/normal sizing is totally difficult to learn. And enforce. Especially if eating out, I have a horrible time with it. I do love those 100 calorie packs, though some of them, I'm like "I don't need you to make some freaky fake-o version of oreos, just give me only 100 calories of oreos in a "oh, I'd ahve to open a whole other PACK" guilt-inducing package!!!"

meara!

When seeing you? Wednesday night, maybe?

Maybe Thursday, Aimee? I'll call you tonight, OK?

Ok. We'll be home around 8 or so.

Hey GC - have you heard the new Kristin Hersh album yet? It's awesome!

t perks

Not GC, but intrigued! I love KH.

HAPPY BIRTHDAY, ANNE!

meara, I'm going to head over to my favorite coffee/food shop once I get out of here around 4, so give my cell a call or ping when you're free. Whee!
