Sweet lumpy minion, you're the only one that understands. Probably 'cause I haven't sucked the brain out of you yet.

Well, there's terrible news (things that begin with rs and cs,) but it didn't get executed today.

I hope it goes well when the time comes.

Someone in the reception area is making with the clicky-pen noises. He may have to die.

ugh. you know what's horrible? I HATE the clicky noise, but I find my self doing it unconsciously. I look down, and I'm THAT GUY.

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.

I look down, and I'm THAT GUY.

Something about this phrase out of context is weird.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

Yikes.

This is why I can never be a professional poker player -- I'd totally be the person shuffling the chips all day long, which is SUPER FUCKING ANNOYING.

This dude was going clicky-clicky all the way to the elevator! I try my best to keep from making any annoying repetitive noises in my office other than typing, which I can't help. I tap my feet along to my iPod a lot. I should probably stop that.

Every now and then, I think I might actually be a little odd.

In non-clicky news, my lovely new shoes are too tight. They have not diamonds, though.

I had mine on Friday. It's not the way I'd choose to spend three hours, but I was so grateful for the toothpain to stop that I didn't mind. Modern anesthesia is terrific.

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

Sara, I'm glad that you (and connie) are on the dental train.

I seem to recall that I actually had a waking epiphany last night but I'm still playing around to see what sticks.

Today makes day 7 of this particular migraine. I'd stopped counting them as continuing from day to day (new day, new migraine!) but this is definitely the same one. Can't wait to see how the neuro responds to me poohpoohing her Percocet scrip. Also printed out the first of the ER complaint letters.

'we all walk this earth feeling we are frauds. The trick is to be grateful and hope the caper doesn't end any time soon"

Talk to the neuro about how you were treated by ER-doc, please. I wouldn't be surprised if she delivers a collegial whack upside his head, with diagrams and helpful illustrations.

In other news, the guy came to estimate my porch rebuild two hours early (he called first) and was a model of explanation and good customer interaction. Even if his company came in at the highest end of the cost scale, I'm feeling inclined to go with his co. because of the way he presented himself, the way the company got back to me right away and et cetera.

Probably still a decision to sleep on, considering that the range of estimates on the porch was over $5 (which included some that I'm pretty sure were not up to code...).

Homeownership: not for the timid.
