I'm so sorry, but if it makes you feel any better, my fun-time-Buffy party night involved watching a robot throw Spike through a window, so if you want to trade... no wait, I wouldn't give up that memory for anything.

Mac is so cute and his hair looks sharp.

I am so tired. Kill me now. Also, it seems that when I miss the first bunch of buses that leave at around 8:05 and gets me to work right on time, and get one of the buses that leaves 15 minutes later, I end up being oh, 40 minutes late arriving for work. That still didn't stop me from getting coffee on my way today. No coffee, no brain function.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

I had a moment of panic when I got to work, because I thought I was relatively on time, but the receptionist was already here! She's never here until like 9:30! But then I looked at the clock, and sure enough, it was only ten past. Phew.

Mac is so handsome with his new haircut.

Me getting to work by 9:30 counts as an accomplishment. (Which I did.) (Today.)

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

My cold is not at all better.

I have no sick time.

This annoys me.

I aim for 9:15, and generally hit it. My boss is still out sick today -- yikes! She hasn't been in the office since last Wednesday.

Could someone please make it feel okay to call in sick for a whole day and lose that pay?

Can you afford it? Do you think you'll feel better tomorrow if you get extra rest today? I can't change how you feel (sorry), but those are the key questions.

It's a big day for Emaryn. She has been homeschooled (somewhat a matter of debate), but today she is trying out the local public school for a half-day. The school is very accommodating. I'm hoping it goes well for her.

I hope you get better soon ita, whether you go into work or not. Would they be agreeable to a short day today with some extra time later?

What should make the decision easy is that I feel like ten kinds of fresh hell right now, and really don't want to stand up much less go anywhere.

I will make the bargain with myself that I'll go in to work tomorrow anyway.

I shoulda bought more OJ.

Okay, emailing in infirm, and back to sleep.
