Let's see, BWI's baggage claim continued to suck and got jammed. I really do think they have the most incompetent of baggage handlers. Got home really late, but unpacked because I hate being packed at home. Picked up the cat this morning and he decided to poop in the carrier on the 20 minute ride home. Gah. Cleaned him up as best I could in a hurry, but he'll be getting a bath tonight.Now at work, catching up on email and typoing due to keyboard confusion.

Tired.

Sheesh, they're almost as bad as Bethlehem priests.

To be fair, I'm a little less surprised at violence from wild pioneer explorer types who are cooped up together in a frozen wasteland than from role models of moral conduct who are entrusted with caring for the birthplace of the Prince of Peace.

Some people are going to be getting coal in their stockings next year.

can i be late to work, too?

I'm all packed for home except my makeup bag.

I have horrid heartburn, and I'm a little queasy. My stomach always revolts before a flight.

Now have to go to work for 8 hours, then to airport, then to fly.

Two weeks of no work, no getting up early, no grocery shopping.

Sweet.

There are only 2 people other than me working today and they are annoying me by playing music without using headphones right above me upstairs. I can just hear the tinny parts. I hate that almost more than anything!

I'm... still not working. I'm kind of waiting for someone else to get back to me, but I suppose there are other things I could be doing.

I'm one of a few people here, but some of the others include the workers putting up office walls for the new head honcho, which means a lot of drilling noises that are DRIVING ME CRAZY!!!! Oh, well, at least I'm only here for a half-day, so I can leave at 2:00.

Teddy's bloodwork came back Not Good. He's back in the hospital while the vets (1) aggressively treat for some Very Bad Things that could be wrong and (2) conduct tests to find out what actually is wrong. He's acting lively and eating, though he vomited again late last night.

Meanwhile, we were so late at the hospital, plus I didn't sleep well even after we finally got to bed, plus the stress has gone right to my back. We're both home sick today.

Aw, poor teddy and poor Fredpete and Hubs!

Noah's such a bundle of fun stuff.

I was surprised San Francisco was only #7.

That sounds about right. But I was surprised to see Boston come in at 10. I've lived in both cities and Boston/Cambridge is definitely more readerly.

::vibing hard for Teddy and his family::

If I come home and don't see Amarna in the first few minutes I open the door, I start to freak out over whether she's either managed to lock herself into one of the two rooms with doors or is curled up sick and/or dead in the corner. Even though she's never had problems, I get paranoid about her. Every time, though, she's been zonked out on the couch or bed and wondering what I'm doing home, disturbing her sleep.
