I am not...I am not the damsel in distress. I am not some case. I have to work this. I've lived in a cave for 5 years in a world where they killed my kind like cattle. I am not going to be cut down by some monster flu. I am better than that. What a wonder...how very scared I am.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

Sephora and Best Buy have both made me cry in the past.

Ahrg. I was supposed to pick up another special food for Dev after worrk. I forgot until 2 pm today. The vet's closes at 2. I've pretty much wasted most of today. Bleah.

Jesus. Someone died during the Olympics marathon trials this morning. I hate those stories -- a girl I knew in college had a boyfriend who dropped dead while running.

hip deep in pie

I never want to be top dog with regard to responsibility and expectations.

That's why I think that being my own boss would be great. My problem is that I'm too shy and awkward for the business part. I'd need a partner to gladhand and schmooze.

OMG, my friend and I were talking about my new job this morning, and I said, "Well it's not my own pie shop or movie theatre..." And she said, "A movie theatre that serves pie!!!!" Then I came back with, "A theme pie for the movie of the week!" Now if I just had the money and wherewithal to make it so.

I remember the crazy days. 500 posts an hour. Nubmer! Natgbsb

sara, I share your wasted day. I just realized I had a package to pick-up at the PO and the slip said today was the last day. D'OH!

I did just have a burst of energy and straightened two rooms. AND the wheelchair got picked up, so that is a nice thing.

But today has been mostly tv, videos, scrabulous, and now online bill paying.
