Ha! Thanks, Hil.
At my last job they could easily not notice me missing a day. Honestly, without krav, no one's on it. And even if work noticed, what then? I can't imagine my bosses calling around.
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.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

Our wings are not tired.
Work and home would notice my absence at about the same time since I work with DH.
Dude, where's my tommyrot!? I wrote him an email. Does a Chicagoista have a number for him?

90210 question--
Hil beat me to it, but it's right at about 6 minutes in. (yes, I am enough of a geek that I went and starting watching the show.)

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
Mmm...spectators.
And I've got something like 8 pairs of jeans (in various states of respectability) that I can't wear without suspenders.
It might be worth getting the most-respectable ones tailored? Cheaper than buying new, anyway.

I missed the first 8 minutes or so of 90210 (no, I'm not willing enough to admit I like it to actually TiVo it).
Laura, brenda called him.
Damn, the fall did something to my shoulder. It hurts like a bitch and none of the doctors pay it any attention. Yeah, the injuries still bother me. I discovered that I can feel the cut that connects the two externally visible ones, so I get preoccupied by the thought that a little more force and there'd have been a big flap of my face hanging off, instead of just a flap of lip and a hole. Ickiness.

Yow.

They are old navy jeans. I don't know how much cheaper you can get. (I didn't go to ON today.)

Sean is working on Halloween Horror Nights up at Universal and another big project, so he's been swamped.
That's what I was hoping/figuring. At least the work is going well, if busy.

The only other person I can think to contact regarding tommy is his friend miriam, who came to chicago f2f and used to post as miriame here I think. Unfortunately I do not still have my contact info from that.

We went shopping and i got 70% off already marked down Lands End at Sears stuff. Lavendar cable sweater, $9, two pairs of cropped pants, $7.50 each, 2 pairs of shorts, $6 each. I love Lands End clearance at Sears, especially in malls that don't really fit the LE demographic so there's good stuff on sale on my size.
And then I dropped $60 on jeans at the Gap, which seems outrageous, but they are sexy! I so rarely pay full price for clothes that it feels very strange to do so.

90210 is passing me by for the second time -- I've never seen an episode of the original, and so I see no reason to watch the new one.
DH, Sassafras and I went to walk on the tow path today - we walked at least 8 miles, likely closer to 10 because we went on one of the trails. The weather was fabulous, and we had a lovely picnic by the Potomac. DH and I are wiped. The dog is biting at my pants to try and get me to play when I stand up and walk across the room. I wish I had her energy. Maybe if I sit here very, very quietly, she'll finally puppy-flop.
Perkins, I hope you have a great party. I wish I could be there.
Happy Birthday, Sue!
tommyrot, phone home!
