Buffy ,'Get It Done'
Off-topic discussion. Wanna talk about corsets, duct tape, or physics? This is the place. Detailed discussion of any current-season TV must be whitefonted.
I don't have to go to work today!
Ppptthhhbbbtthhh.
My day? It is odd.
6am - 12pm - Work
12pm - 2:30pm - IV Iron treatment
3pm - Mani/Pedi
4pm - 5pm - pack up for the weekend (wedding in Placerville)
5pm - A's game followed by fireworks
I have an extra ticket to the A's game....anyone????
health-ma to poor Teddy. I know that those pills can be terrible. My cat Pico always fights so much when I give him pills, it feels worse than the illness. He also seems to display super-shedding as a defence mechanism to avoid getting pills.
It seems that more that half our office is out. So I feel resentful that I have to be here too.
Yeah, half my office is out, too -- but NOT the Big Boss, which, WTF. When she left yesterday at 3, I thought we were home free.
I have work til 1 (so, really what am I bitching about?), give blood at 2:20, then go to the library and also buy a shower gift. I should have scheduled the blood later, so I did the other stuff first, but oh well.
I've driven straight through from Madison to Amherst, MA, and then back. About 19 hours one way and 20 hours the other way. I packed some sandwiches and iced tea, and periodically took a No-Doze. I'd drive up to six hours or more without stopping, then just stop long enough to get gas and go pee.
Fun trip, but I was fried at the end. I'm too old to do anything like that now.
Much health-ma to Hec's friend and to Teddy and to Hil's former babysitting client.
Man, first I get up late, then I get something I ordered (much needed for the office) and it comes in all wrong -- incomplete and with tons of typos and I need more coffee and I had to eat my breakfast sandwich cold and I really, really want to go back to bed.
Ah, frell. That includes FNL. Hopefully they will be Amazonable.
Thanks for the thoughts for Teddy. We're particularly happy about cutting out the liquids. Lactulose is very sticky and messes up his fur something awful. Aluminum hydroxide is very chalky and icky, and the 3 ml dosage was really more than a mouthful, which meant white stains everywhere.
I hope for the best for Teddy.
Mike Rowe article for Theo: [link]
“TV does a bad job of portraying common people,” he said as recycling workers drove by with forklifts hauling giant bricks of crushed cans. “By and large they are either turned into heroes, with a lot of dramatic cello music behind everyday activities, or they are reduced to these punch lines."
I can't say I watch Dirty Jobs frequently, but I do get pleasure out of watching a show with people like my Dad on it. Especially after eight hours of L&O reruns.
