You two carried me through that war. Now I need you to carry me just a little bit further. If you can.

Caffeine can wreak havoc on sleep patterns, dammit.

You know what else can do that? A sick baby. She's got a little cold. Oofdah.

Poor Matilda and her tired parents. I hope she's better soon.

Yay, for Toto being home!

This morning I nervously e-mailed my prof of the second class I'm keeping, hoping to get an idea if she's going to let me continue the class before actually seeing her today. She sounded really positive about getting me caught up. I'm so relieved.

Snot-sucker ahoy! Feel better zmayhem household.

Am at work minus motivation. Too much to do. This does not bode well for the rest of the day.

Vortex, wouldn't you be able to sell the apartment? Or would it be too big of a loss?

actually, I'd probably make money, since I bought presale. However, one of the conditions of being presale was that I have to stay for a year.

What is even happening?

Poor Matilda (and Hec, and JZ).

I'm glad you've got Toto home, vw. I think you'll both feel much better.

Nora, I switched to half-caf because of my anxiety, and neither Scott nor I have noticed a difference in our mornings, but it did help me, some. I'm trying to convince him to decaffeinate all the way, but he's resistant, and I can't blame him. At any rate, it gets better. If you're really dragging today, maybe tomorrow you can have one cup of half-caf, if you have it early.

My b-i-l works for a big coffee company, and we're contemplating having him get one of those pod coffee makers -- they make single servings. He's given them to a lot of people in the family, and would give one to us too, but he can't always get the coffee (the little single serving pods are expensive, and we're short on counter space, anyhow. But now, since I can't seem to give up the coffee itself, even though the caffeine reduction has been good, we're re-thinking.

Anyhow, I hope your new med formulation helps you out too, girl.

I've skipped the coffee and gone directly to Diet Coke this morning. Maybe because Owen got a can out of the fridge and put it up to his lips, smacked them and said, "Tasty."
Adorable. Oh, Owen.
I have no idea where he gets these things.
I don't believe you.

Well, sorry about that ... but glad we get to keep you!

I'm just angry and frustrated with work. I never wanted to take the job, but got backed into a corner. Now, they're fucking with me (not with me deliberately, they'd be fucking with anybody), and I'm unhappy. I'm starting to feel like I felt with my law firm. Let the depressive spiral begin! whee!

Yes, I've been noticing a certain level of frustration. And I think I have to change jobs - my boss (who started when I was out recuperating from my stroke) has made it clear she's not happy with me or my work. I'm not sure if she's TRYING to kill me or if that would just be an additional benefit.
