I had hot chocolate, yum!

hip deep in pie

I am having a snacky lunch. Hummus and pita, a banana, two apples. Basically I grabbed anything that didn't required prep from my kitchen. I don't think it's going to be enough.

I just had a very long and kind of frustrating doctor's appointment. Grrr.

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

That sounds great, Dana.

msbelle's elevenses remind me that I still need to eat breakfast.

Also to shower and get dressed and go to work.

Punishingly Intricate

I am having elevenses of a latte and 3 donuts.

OH! I want this one! I'm having another cup of coffee. Usually I bring a travel mug w/ coffee from home and that's all the coffe I'll drink all day but I've left both of my travel mugs at friends' houses. So I am drinking the very good work coffee. In a big colorful stripey mug! I probably shouldn't drink this whole cup but, dag, it's good.

however, I have no donut.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

"I'm useless alone." // "We're all useless alone. It's a good thing you're not alone."

I gave up and broke out my lunch.

It's not diplomatic to use "we" in that situation; it's passive-aggressive.

I need to get this made poster size and hang it in my office.

And the teacher who did it had never spoken to me before. Didn't remember my name. Said she'd meet me in my office then called down and asked her if I would come up to her room. Asked me what my protocol was and after I told her said, "Well D (last guy in this position from last year) used to sit with me" (which is beyond passive-aggressive). Then when I walked in handed two stacks of papers to grade.

I guess I'm sort of still chapped.
