The feeling you get when your brain finally lets your heart get in its pants.

I have a Polgara in my living room, and we have cake and booze, AIFG.

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

I am waiting on pizza to take my pills. I have lidocaine patches attached to my neck and shoulder. I returned a phone call I was feeling dicey on. I did a friend a favour. I need to design my next tattoo. I'm going into the next room to watch Stargate.

No, I have no Polgara. Hey, ask her if she took my trip advice...

No, she did not. There were no opportunities to do so.

You've got to make opportunity.

Just consider Matt, that it's a good thing that none of your neighbors had a video camera, or else you'd be up on YouTube right now. See? It could have been so worse....

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

Why am I so stressed out about work? It makes no sense. And I really don't want to go into the office tomorrow, but I just realized if I don't I won't be able to print out my boarding pass ahead of time for my flight tomorrow night. Bah. You can check in without being able to print the thing, right?

FWIW, it's useful to have something printed out -- if there's a problem I find that clueless airline people are far more likely to believe you if you have something official looking to show them. I also like to have it because I can totally thinko the numbers of flights and times and stuff, even when I transfer it to my PDA and so on.

In theory, you can go completely paperless -- some self-checkins go by your credit card number, even, or just typing in your name. But I've worked too much with software to count on it. :-)

Yeah, I hate not having the stuff printed out -- including all the details for the work thing on Tuesday. Stupid lack of home printer!

One of the first things I did upon becoming unemployed was buy a new printer (one that worked -- I'd been coasting on the availability of work printers!) because I knew with job-hunting and all, I'd need it for quick-printing resumes and envelopes and whatnot. That it came with the capability to print photographs and scan and copy is pure gravy that I'm finding unexpectedly useful....
