That Jilli. She's so glass-is-half-full-of-absinthe.

No, it's cold and windy and miserable. It's March weather. I wouldn't be complaining if we were having days that stayed in the 60s. It's when, in mid-June, 55 is a balmy afternoon, that I get cranky.

Plei is me. I like 60s just fine. Sunny and 68 is just about perfect (though not for the tomato plants on our deck). But this 50's with wind and rain has got to go. I'm sick of my winter clothes and not being able to read at the bus stop because it's raining, among other things.

I tracked down the Vermont Country Store, because they have nummy fudge. Unfortunately, they don't ship chocolate or cheese at this time of year, which is wise but disappointing.

However, they do have

Anti Monkey-Butt Powder

The Vermont Country Store, that bastion of old-timey products and things my Grandma used, also sells . . .

Vibrators.

My brain hurts.

Oh, OW, connie. Now my brain hurts too.

But Jilli, the sunshine sets off your gloominess like a rare jewel in a perfect setting! Weather-gloom just blends everything into a uniform...gloom. (she buying it?)

JZ, that is a delightfully wonderful gift. And thank you for my afternoon puzzle of figuring out how to see it. So naughty!

Pete and Plei, I'm sorry you guys are getting early-spring weather. DH would be rolling around in it with glee, were he there, and is dreadfully jealous as it is. If I could, I'd waft some of this 97F your way. As you say, a compromise in temperatures.

oh, no nonnononononononono.

No.

That's...so wrong.

I'm picturing snickering old folks browsing through the Intimate Solutions section and looking intrigued.

I mean, more power to the old folks, but, I don't need to imagine Grandma contemplating lube.

Go Grandma! Get the Rabbit!

(Or, as I heard one white haired woman say on a show once, "Fine, I'm too old. When do you plan on quitting? 60? 70? Surely you want to have orgasms anymore by then ")

Well heck. Just got off a conference call which ended with "And Suzi will be managing tracking these items from here forward". Ummmm, you couldn't have said that at the beginning of the call so I would have paid more attention???

I am in meeting scheduling hell. Not only do 2 of the people who absolutely have to be there have a meeting pop up that makes my previously scheduled meeting unworkable-there is no time later in the day, and the day after the PM leaves for a long weekend and 2 of our people plus one of theirs will be out of town on the same trip.

Gah!

Well, shit. My good friend who is also a co-worker's beloved dog died today. He was attacked by a neighbor's dog late last week. Friend didn't think it was that bad but apparently it was. The worst part is that friend's dad is hospitalized (fucking cancer) so friend wasn't here when the dog died. So sad. Please send {{{}} J's way.

I live in fear of this happening-especially to little Oz. Peace~ma for your friend.
