"There are few hours in life more agreeable than the hour dedicated to the ceremony known as afternoon tea."

Laura, tons of ~ma to your mother-in-law.

Yay, Aimee the Algebra Empress!

askye, your co-worker is of the very bad crazy kind.

Cable guy showed up a half hour late and stayed for at least an hour while trying to decide whether or not to replace my DVR. He finally did, and after dinner I spent an hour trying to remember everything that I record. I think I caught everything for this week, but I'll probably end up forgetting to record things that are on haitus right now.

I am a woman of various inclinations and only some of the time are they to burn everything down in frustration

This is why I keep a calendar of everything I regularly record from TV and on which devices. It may not be healthy, exactly, but it has come in very handy.

Our wings are not tired.

Askye's cow-orker needs to be slapped. Unreal.

Impressed as can be with the Algebra Empress! My son's algebra made my head hurt.

Freaked out about MIL. We'll be headed to the hospital shortly. She makes me crazy. When Pam went in for her gall bladder surgery a bit ago the doctor said it was the worst he had ever seen. Was shocked she was walking around. When she was in her daughters and I trapped her into seeing an Ob/Gyn because she hadn't been in over 30 years. She had been complaining about her awful periods as long as I had known her. All the women in her life had been telling her that at 60 it ain't a period. If she had gone a decade or so sooner it wouldn't have been as complex a surgery and radiation and so forth for the cancer. After that surgery she had a hernia, which despite our bitching she let go and now that has become a very serious issue.

She has awesome insurance because her husband was career Air Force. She just puts stuff off forever until it is a crisis. We all push her, but apparently we needed to hit her over the head and drag her in to be treated. I'm scared and pissed off at the same time.

What is even happening?

I'm so sorry, Laura. How scary. All my good thoughts and prayers are with her (and you all).

That's hard, Laura. I hope her delaying doesn't cost her (and the rest of you) too much.

Laura, much health~ma for your MiL.

askye, that is one seriously craxy cow-irker. I'm amazed she's still working there.

Go, Empress of Algebra! Is that anywhere near Morocco or Tunisia? Wherever, I'm sure it's a lovely place to visit.

Thrive to spite them

Laura, I'm sending lots of ~ma your way.

My Crazy coworker normally spreads the crazy out but lately it's been almost everytime she's opened her mouth. She mostly keeps to herself, which I used to feel bad about, until I started getting to know her better.


Laura - Mar 23, 2007 3:47:00 pm PDT #2111 of 10003
Our wings are not tired.

We are on our way to the hospital. Not much we can do, but it will help to be able to talk to the doctors in person and I think she will feel our support.

Thanks for the thoughts and prayers.

Because books.

Sending all kinds of ~ma for her, and for all of you, Laura.
