oh, sj. I'm sorry. Ugh. Is it that you feel overwhelmed by the festivities?

Is it that you feel overwhelmed by the festivities?

Not totally. Mainly it's that I'm really sore and tired and I've been having asthma attacks followed by anxiety attacks daily. I haven't gotten nearly anything done, and I just don't see how any of it is going to happen. I have a hair appointment that I need to leave in the next half hour to get to, and I can't even see how I can do that, because I just can't pull myself together.

I still have to come up with a gift for my Mom. I think I've got other folks covered, but I'm sure I've forgotten people. I've been doing most of my shopping while I've been out of town in rehearsals for a new show.

I have spent all morning going back and forth on my resume with a coworker and a couple of Buffista. I guess I should do some work-work.

And there is the problem I've been having getting around with all this friggin ice on the ground. Apparently no one around here believes in plowing or sanding.

ND and Kristin - we decorated our tree last night. You'll be pleased to know that The Incredibles ornament not only survived the trip east, but much pomp and circumstance was used when placing it on the tree.

I may have cried a little.

Apparently this is going to cost me £200.

YEEEOUCH, Fay!

Yet, I feel like if she gets a sled, a Cinderalla doll, Dora skates, a couple of books and Annie (1982 - Albert Finney and Carol Burnett), she'll be getting not a whole lot! I R SILLY.

Spoil the child rotten! Worry about how to pay for Bigger! Better! More! More expensive! presents later. That's Future Aimee's problem.

But then, the teachings of Cathol can be quite moving.

::loves Sean::

Hee! I knew you'd like that, Steph.

He was cast as "Mr. Beaver," a non-speaking and perhaps in the book a non-existent role

Um, actually a major role with lots of talking, lots of action, and some pretty important exposition. What the hell were these people thinking?

JZ beat me to it.

I never read the books or saw any other movie so there was a lot, "Who's that? What's that? Why is he crying? Is that the butthead brother that fucks everything up for his siblings? He looks like an ass. What's her name? How come she has no eyebrows? Is she a queen or a witch? Who's the dude? What's that? Why is that like that? Where's Jesus?"

Um, Aimee, love. You know, almost all movies, like almost all other stories, will answer all your questions in good time if you just SHUT THE HELL UP AND WATCH THE MOVIE!

Awwww. Damn I miss you guys!

I envy you people your "holiday work slowdowns". My company decided to have service pack release at the same time a major client decided to migrate their entire staff to our newest program. They've been buying us lunch all week because we're not allowed to leave our desks for more than brief breaks. Yay, right to work states. I'm sorry, but "At least you're getting lots of overtime,right?" does not cut it with multiple 11-hour days with minimal breaks.

Go home, people! Upgrade your computers in the new year!

Sorry to hear that connie. I feel your pain, I'm stuck out of town rehearsing a new show and we've been doing 12-15 hour days. I'm just tired.
