Oh, poor nakey sickie Owen. I hope he gets over the sick part fast.
Hear-house news for sj.
Housekeeping accomplishment-ma for vw.
I second the rec for hot wet compresses for swollen to achy sinuses. It's often better relief for me than the drugs, though not as long-lasting. I takes the drugs, have a lie-down with a compress, running it under the hot water faucet again and again as necessary to reheat, and by the time the drugs kick in, the compress has eased the ache and caused significant drainage.
Oh Daniel. Do you have a decibel meter so you can measure the decibels yourself? OSHA might have something to say about damaging workers' hearing. I'd be looking for another job. Noise pollution is something I'm extremely sensitive to. I used to take my rigid biteplate to work in case the bookstore PA played hyper jazz. It was either that or bite customers.
You're a brave woman, Cashmere, letting a kid with stomach flu sit on the couch naked. I'd be reaching for the pull-up (or as they are known in our house, the diaper panty).
I love how Isaac says "III-and ah Soh-dor"
Oh, my, Cashmere. Poor you! Poor Owen! Hope he feels better soon and that you stay sane.
I just emptied out two suitcases. They were basically filled with clean laundry. Boy, I'm lazy some days. But, I found more underwear! I could have gone a few more days without doing laundry! Ha!
ETA: Done! And it's a little cheaper.
Oakland is a really easy airport, and you can take BART (the subway) into the city. Also, Jet Blue the bestest airline ever flies into Oakland.
The unofficial news is that it looks like I'll be hitting the Chantilly, VA area the week of June 4-8th. It won't become official until mid-May, I'm guessing...but still, we are making progress.
Woo! marks calendar, prepares hangover remedies
They really do help, just yesterday was brutal and the compresses only helped for basically the time I was doing it.
They rock. Sometimes, I’ll put a heating pad on top of the compress to keep it hot. Yes, I’m risking electrocution, but since I’m praying for death at that point anyway, it’s a moot point.
Hee. I love Scola The Enabler.
The Boy and I were talking the other day about coming out to SF.

Heh. Not *moving* out there; just vacation.
Sending out the ma~~~ I 'm just hoping I have had enough meds that I don't start randomly yelling about the plants having sex ( and then needing to rest for half an hour because I used up all my air) But i feel awake enough to go get coffee.
Heh. Not *moving* out there; just vacation.
Pffft. So you say now. September with San Francisco at its prettiest, and Folsom Street, and the Boy? We'll just see.
Much, much ~ma to Cash and poor sick Owen.
And hearing-back-today~ma to sj and TCG. The sooner you're out of there and free from the disagreeable landlady and the stream of lookers and realtors, the better. And I forgot to mention it at the time, but I'm both sorry and incredibly amused that your evil stinky-fish-dish plot a few days ago was totally undermined by your culinary skill.
Baby sleep report: Matilda only woke twice last night, at midnight and 3:30. Both times she fed and went peacefully back to sleep, and now she's wide awake and chatting happily with David. Lots of "Okay" and "Hey!" in this morning's conversation.
